    i have an alienware 15 R1 and seems like intel XTU is playing me a bad joke.
    touching intel XMP ( extreme memory profile ) and it saved the bad value on NVRAM and now i cant reset that values because i just cant
    I think that @Prema could help me ... @Mr. Fox tried without having luck :(
    i trying if installing again the Vbios mod could help, but i cant . nvram have to be blocked on some way

    Is there a configuration or ini file that you can edit with NotePad? Maybe there is a switch set in the flashing tool that skips it.
