Weird, not sure what would cause that? Maybe just some incompatibility with the programmer you are using?
Can you use regular CH341A software, like 1.30 or 1.18 etc? If not, maybe your programmer does not use CH341A chip, not all do?

So, I checked the images before getting into your edit, and I see you're on very old 1.03 BIOS, are you sure you don't want to update to latest 1.14 before we do the unlocking?

Well that's even more odd!! Maybe a glitch, unless it always happens?
OK, yes, update BIOS first then if you'd rather be on latest BIOS (I'd suggest this of course), and then make new dump and send my way

It was because I had my other programer program open in the background.
Also got the right me setup but get Error 318 (read bios) and 368 bios protection.

Edit: Got Windows installed, flashed bios with modified insydeflash. So all good for that unlocked and a new dump is incoming
https://www105.zippyshare.com/v/qRMX7cxn/file.html - Bios Dump

Also tested the newer "Special Edition" and get the same with ASProgrammer on this chip

Ahh, yes, you can only have one programmer program open at a time Or they all get lost and fight over who's controlling what
368 we can bypass easily, and error 280 if it remained next, and sometimes 167 (BIOS Lock, SMI/SMM lock, FPRR) - We'd have to test that route, if you wanted
What do you mean "Special Edition"??

Here is first test unlocked BIOS test Let me know if you see Advanced (one with Overclock Performance Menu) + Power, if yes, I will then show you the edits in assembly and give you the hex offsets for setup PE32 (BODY)
Also, for now, I did not look at BIOS images yet, to see if anything needs revealed in already visible menus. I wanted to get this menu unlock sorted first, then if needed we can do other edits.
* Failed edit removed *

@dragonsun252 - Edit - Here, please test 2nd mod. Sorry about that, I hate Insyde BIOS sometimes, as I mentioned it may take a few tries
I see the issue there and it was my mistake, editing via flow method in assembly backwards/up instead of forwards/down, and due to that I missed a jump and was going wrong way with the overall flow of menu access post-edit!!
Still may need one more edit after this one, not 100% sure about one jump, if it needs forced or not.

* Edit 2 - And, here is another follow-up edit just in case (x2), one of these may actually unlock both advanced, but I'm not sure. One Adv is limited, and really should've been visible to you by default
Or, the above may fail to unlock too, and one of these will be the one - https://ufile.io/xbpvud1j

*** WARNING - To ANYONE with laptop and unlocked BIOS!!!! ***
DO NOT try to enable this graphics card or disable that card, switch cards etc. Otherwise you will end up with no display output (ie black screen) and no way to recover except by blind flash or with flash programmer.
You can change graphics related settings, like changing memory sizes, or core speeds etc, just don't try to disable one card or change which is main etc.
Additionally, be very careful when trying to undervolt CPU, you can leave BIOS unbootable due to CPU voltage too low (Sometimes even 0.05 is too much)

*** WARNING *** - This BIOS is user specific! If you are not user dragonsun252 at Win-RAID.com forum, DO NOT USE THIS BIOS!!
If you do, and you are not dragonsun252, then you will loose your serial, UUID, OG NVRAM, and possibly LAN MAC ID as well.
You have been warned!!!

Test Bios #2 is a winner. Everything is enabled. What changes where needed in the pe32?

All menus and sub menus are present and functioning

@dragonsun252 - Great!! I was wondering if you were off playing in BIOS, or still bricked/recovery modes
Which actual file name are you talking about, M2b (?), so I can be sure before I give you the details

@dragonsun252 - I hear that!
OK, I will make you out some info about the edit
---------------

@dragonsun252 - OK, all info here is based on extracting/editing/replacing Setup PE32 BODY only, as shown with UEFITool below. I mention this, and show image, due to what you send me previously was setup extracted with MMTool (compressed) and that wont work here.
Well you can work on Setup from MMTool like that if you want, but extract it "uncompressed" AND, big BUT all the info here will not be same/correct offsets for such a file so not really ideal to mess with this and MMTool.
Additionally, if editing this with MMTool, you'd have to learn how to correct checksums too before it would let you insert mod file, so more work that way

Anyway, see below, this is how I suggest you work on Insyde Setup PE32 modules, this way, direct extracted file is ready to drop in assembly when needed.


Here is the assembly edit in action (before/stock on left and already modified on right) - Editing SubRoutine - 1C10
Flow view - 2nd image, has carry over/repeat from image one @ last edit, due to I could not fit all on screen at once


Assembly / code view


And here is the actual hex edit to make (on Setup PE32 BODY, as outlined above, anything other than extracting that way will have incorrect offsets)
1EF2: 83 >> Edit to >> 00
1F25: 30 >> Edit to >> 00
1F54: 75 >> Edit to >> EB (JNZ >> To >> JMP)
1FCB: 75 >> Edit to >> EB (JNZ >> To >> JMP)
