    anyone know if its possible to mod the insyde bios by using the Insyde Flash Utility for InsydeH2O to dump a 1MB version of my bios then use the EzH2O tool to edit the bios and hex to find the right bytes?

    this is for an aspire 5552

    I found a version of EzH2O that opens the bios and using winhex i can edit the bios and add some features via EzH20 itself now does anyone know where to edit to enable the advanced menu or enable more power options.

    don't wanna overclock anymore though.

    its 2.1.0.13 and higher(but 2.1.0.13 corrupts ACPI tables if you try to edit the tables)
