first of all i have to say sorry for my bad english
So i have a request about unlock bios for my Samsung RV520-S02IT (I3-2310M, GT520M). For strange reason my notebook use ONLY a discrete GPU and i don't have any bios-switch for use integrated GPU of Intel I3-2310M and i can't use nvidia Optimus . In fact, if i want install Intel HD3000 gpu driver, the intel installer says : " System don't have a system requirement for install software"
Here the thread in the Intel forum

Samsung RV520
CPU : i7 -2630QM
GPU : GT 520M
BIOS : Phoenix Technologies Ltd.
Version : 07PQ DOWNLOAD
EDIT :
I have to add that my problem is that I installed 4GB of RAM more and it won't recognise, it` hardware reserved, even tough the graphic reserved memory is 529MB.
I cannot change it without unlocked bios.

RV520 S03AT - Austria
I think that it's the exact same model, because I upgraded some parts.
I want to be able to change any setting that I want in bios, because there is a lot of
possibilities, for example, integrated graphics, etc...

I'd appreciate it if you could unlock hidden BIOS features on a Samsung RV520 laptop.
This is a Phoenix BIOS with UEFI support.
I'd like to unlock all possible features and, if possible, add a function to delete NVRAM entries, such as Windows Boot Manager. So far, I've done this with the efibootmgr -b 000A -B tool, but it's very tedious.
I'm also sending a BIOS dump created using the EZP2010 programmer.
I took some readings and compared the checksums and they matched.

Hello, I'm soon buying an i7 2760qm processor for my RV520 and would like to mod my BIOS (to ensure it's supported) and remove any Samsung limitations.
I'm attaching the latest firmware file (07PQ) that I extracted from the Samsung BIOS Update program.
I'd also like to know how to update the BIOS (since the laptop's BIOS doesn't seem to have this feature, and the only way I know is to use Samsung BIOS Update).
