Hey everyone!

I'm currently playing a bit with an old intel system - motherboard dp55wb, i7 860 - I'm trying to overclock the processor a bit. Until now the process is going just fine... I can change CPU bclk frequency and some memory configs to get to 3.6 ghz CPU speed. But I can´t go any further cause theres close to none voltage settings available... So I'm trying to mod the BIOS to show a hidden advanced menu and other hidden options on the current available tabs. I manege to find some advanced config quotes as well as voltage settings on BIOS file using uefitool, but have no idea how to unlock them... I'm attaching a biosreg extracted with FPT and a full image too. And hoping for some reply to help me unllock tohse options.

BTW. I have programmer and already used it on this system successfully

*edit*
theres an old intel "technical product specification" for this board that shows advanced menu, so he's probably there somewhere

@fairestmeat - Dump BIOS with programmer and attach, then I will see if I can unlock for you.
Programmer is the only way for Intel board BIOS, maybe after you program in unlocked FD with programmer, then you could use FPT, but I'm not sure (no one ever plays with Intel board much)

Thanks, please link me to stock BIOS page too, and tell me what version it is that you have flashed in now

@Lost_N_BIOS

So, apparently, intel deleted the support page for old boards like this a while ago... So I can't give you an official page, but I have the stock BIOS that I flashed awhile ago... Got it from one of those archive sites, but only the full image, not the exe or other file. Let me know if you need this file.

Also, I have an EXE of an older version (this older version is the previous one I had installed and works fine) let me know if you want this file too.

The version I currently have is v.0165 and the full ID is - WBIBX10J 86A 0165

*edit*

I also have a technical manual for this board too, if it helps

OK, I only need the extracted image from the EXE of BIOS you are using. If it's not the .BIO image I wanted extracted from the exe then I'll have to find the BIOS at one of these archive sites too but in exe form

@Lost_N_BIOS

Attaching the EXE of version 0122, it's not the one currently installed, but it's the only image from a EXE file I have and I know it works fine.

I don't know how similar it is to the 0165 version, but I hope it helps.

I'll try to find the current version EXE... Let you know if I'm lucky

It has to be your current BIOS version, unless you want to downgrade to some other older BIOS first (if that's even possible?!)
Found it - https://de.pcdrivers.guru/intel-desktop-...oad-618581.html
Well, found the names of the .BIO and .EXE at least, but can't download from above I have to have at least one of these, or the ISO, zip etc.
wbibx10j.86a.0165.eb.exe
WB0165P.BIO

Also here, but you have to register and it sounds fishy, so didn't even waste my time with fake email reg Try registering here, if you want to grab these for me?

Where is the 0165 file you have??

@Lost_N_BIOS

Oh I tried these sites too... the second one requires subscription to download

attaching the 165 file I have

Yeah, I just found a few viruses, and old dead links in a few Chinese sites
You may have to find some other current owners and ask them if any have 0165 stock files. And on that note, here is only user I see here that mentions it @poulpy55

@IntelModder @noInk @poulpy55 - Do any of you happen to have 0165 BIOS (.BIO, Zip, EXE, ISO) for DP55WB?

@Lost_N_BIOS

HA!

I think I got it! Found a .BIO file from the 165, but just the .BIO...


*edit*

Found the EXE too. Here's the link

https://rebyte.me/en/intel/134545/file-540813/


This site have a bunch of version if anyone else is looking for some reason

I looked at rebyteme and only seen older BIOS, must not have looked deep enough in there
Thanks! I will grab these files and see what I can do for you this weekend.
Wait, so what is attached above? Please put exe and .BIO in single a zip/rar for me, thanks.

@Lost_N_BIOS

Awsome!

@fairestmeat - Sorry, I can't find the unlock on this BIOS
I can send you the extracted setup PE32 modules for assembly edit, there is two, assume edit both just in case. Then you can ask if someone will unlock them for you over at BIOS-mods.com if you want?
.BIO must be opened in UEFITool 21.5, then setup is at GUID - 056E7324-A718-465B-9A84-228F06642B4F x 2
To generate IFR, you must extract the entire module - FFS as is, or body. You can't get IFR if you extract the PE32 part only, but that part is what you open in assembly to find the unlock, so that's why I mentioned to send the PE32's as well, for edit
Anyway, if you want me to send you what I extracted, let me know. Sorry I can't do this one, some Insyde is just above my skill-set

@Lost_N_BIOS

Oh thats a bummer!!

I think I already found the pe32 setup module, as you said found two identical ones, but only using UEFItool NE alpha 57, the 21.5 version cannot find the modules, only two raw sections (don't know what those are) when searching for that GUID. Anyways, I'd like the ones you have!

1.Right now I'm trying to check the setup modules to see if I can find the options I want there, if so, I'll ask someone at bios-mods.com, if I can't find anything, does that mean that my bios don't have those option?

2.I searched for the modules by using text search, than extracted FFS as is, and used IFR extractor, the format of the generated file is very weird, alot of blank spaces, but seems to be fine... The only thing is, there are some option that I can see, change in BIOS, and find with uefitool text search on this setup module, that I can't find in the generated IFR file... Does this mean this IFR is not extracting properly?

3. Should all setting I can see in BIOS be on that setup?

Those question are both for knowledge and to see if I can change things with vars edit if BIOS menu unlock is really not a thing for this system
