I am unsure of your question. the files for download are up to date and valid for 2.04 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gytole Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 For some reason, my pc wouldnt reload the page, it showed the last comment as last year, haha after I posted that comment the page magically reloaded and had 50 pages of comments. I managed to get an elite account and unlock my bios, took FOREVER because the zip containing the backup.bat was not there and had to figure something out. oh well, unlocked the bios and have the Intel 7260ac Dual Band card up and running, then installed DD-WRT on my TP-Link Archer C7 v2 today and MAN is my internet wayyy better than stock firmware and my Intel Centrino 2230, what a terrible card. Not that I had problems with the stock C7 firmware but DD-WRT makes a major difference performance wise! Thanks everyone for the help through comments, and the main page with the setup and knowledge to defeat that nasty locked bios! haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JayDieu Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 (edited) Okay so now I'm not able to flash the vbios for my ultrabay 650m. I go through will flashing completely, but when I reboot, it is still the same. I flashed it onto Index [1] since X doesn't exist Edit: So after reading, I learned that people were having issues with getting 0.33 to flash over 0.3a on win 8.1. I having this same issue and was wondering if there is now a fix Edited January 31, 2016 by JayDieu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daveman52 Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Hello, i just unlocked my bios (Worked perfectly!) on my Y500. I wanted to do it because i had just upgraded my ram (http://www.corsair.com/en-us/vengeance-16gb-high-performance-laptop-memory-upgrade-kit-cmsx16gx3m2b1600c9) and i'm getting a MEMORY MANAGEMENT BSOD when i do a cold boot (If it's off for a while, the first time i boot the pc it throws me that bsod, i can reboot a thousand times after that, it won't happen again). I ran memtest for like 20 hours with no errors whatsoever, so i wanted to check the ram settings in case my pc isn't setting them up correctly. Now my question: Is there a way to tweak memory voltage with this unlocked bios ? Thanks for reading me David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hbar98 Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Well, I guess I'll start posting so I can download the files! Been meaning to do this for a while, seeing now that I have the wifi card from part of a pfsense box I was building that needs to be put to use, I need to get the files. Hope the mods smile down on me and let me download in a reasonable time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't suppose waiting another week or so will make much of a difference. I applaud them for finding a new revenue stream. Unfortunately for them, I'm a bit of a tightwad.
