UEFI is enabled by default, additionally Win8 mode can be added to get the BGRT boot logo etc. If Win8 mode is enabled and afterwards disabled then UEFI is disabled and needs to be manually re-enabled.

1. That feature its mainly to be able to maintain the current layout without being forced to swap keys...while the FN+9 version detects newer keyboards models automatically and adjusts the key-layout, only older keyboard version user can decide which side they want to use their FN key on...the FN+1 version on the other hand forces Win key on the left...

2. Did you switch the OS selection back to "Win8" in BIOS ? UEFI is ON by default but not Win8...

Its not possible to OC CPUs lower than 3720QM via BIOS handles, we could change/adjust the clock-spectrum in SSDT table, but that isn't a clean/stable solution for all user...

1. That's a shame. Coming from an MSI G series, I still never got used to having the Fn key on the right and the Windows key on the left. I assume there's no way at all to change this behavior on newer keyboards?

2. I had the OS set to Windows 8 instead of Others, but it still wasn't doing it. What I ended up doing was clearing my CMOS by unplugging the battery, and it worked. Strangely, when it wasn't working before, the BIOS allowed me to select both UEFI and MBR OSes (ie, WIndows 8 UEFI as well as the USB DOS stick used to update the BIOS), which I thought was actually a feature, but sadly that is now gone after doing that.

Can confirm bohr's error. Getting the same message in my event viewer here.

Hey Prema, I just installed your latest BIOS on my NP9170 (P170EM_17_12_PM_v2_2T.rar) and I'm noticing a couple minor issues:

1. This BIOS is supposed to have the Windows key on the right side, yes? Because it's not working for me, the Windows key is still in the left side. My keyboard is one of Sager's newer ones with the Windows 8 logo on the left side and was hoping this would move it to the right, where the Fn key currently is. Full fan is working on Fn+9.

2. The resolution in UEFI mode seems to be 640x480 instead of the native resolution. I notice this because on the Bitlocker screen where I enter my key, it's all stretched and blurry. Also, the boot logo is the regular blue Windows logo, where it should be a custom boot image, yes?
