I'm not responsible for your mistakes and broken devices.Īlso, I cannot confirm this works on all sorts of laptops. Proceed with caution and DON'T just try "something". This isn't without risk and you can easily break your laptop with it. I'll describe what I did, because the tool isn't that well documented and a lot of the documentation is in Chinese.įirst of all, you are modifying your BIOS here. It's for BIOS engineers I think, but it worked for me. And I've found one.Īfter quite a bit of searching I found a tool called "RU". So I had to find another way to disable it. Also, no "secret combinations" to unlock it. Of course, Lenovo was again kind enough to also block this for my specific laptop, since it's a "consumer" laptop (I have a Lenovo Ideapad 520-15IKBR).
Apparently there also is an "advanced" tab in the bios, in where you could disable that. Why? Lenovo was kind enough to ALSO block this method of modifying the bios. Setup_var_3 displayed the offset as 0x01 (enabled), thus correctly, but was still not able to edit it. Some tools like Hackintool also faultly displayed the CFG as unlocked. ( ) Furthermore, setup_var faultly displayed the offset as 0x00 (disabled), which it was clearly not. However, I got stuck on the last step (setup_var 0x3C 0x00). I tried some methods first, for example, the one described here. So I'm sharing this, as this might help some people who also experience issues with this. So why am I making this post? Well, I've spent the past two days trying to turn off the CFG lock in my bios.
