Ok, thanks for the heads up! I just patched and flashed A04. I can confirm the trick worked flawlessly.
Now to figure what most of these options mean, like jkbuha said
Huge props for unlocking this nonsense!
P.S. I'm most definitely positive about about UEFI boot (enabled UEFI and disabled Legacy for the sakes of testing). Because this comes up when I try to run Repair on my Windows 7 legacy installation: http://puu.sh/19EPE
P.S.S. Yeah, it most definitely works now, as creating a flashdrive with EFI/BOOT/bootx64.efi results in Windows Boot Manager shouting that it can't boot the OS (no sh*t, Sherlock). Prior to unlocking it would just say 'No Operating System Found'
Also, HairyCube (this makes me giggle every time I read it as I try to imagine how it would actually look IRL LOL) try rolling back to A04.
There have been some changes in later BIOS versions in regards to Switchable Graphics operation modes as well as USB3.0 stuff. For me USB3.0 changes have a negative impact, so might as well try what A04 brings you. Here's the rom I had patched (includes MSR unlock as well): http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2573233/V3450_ULCK_A04.zip
Disabling PTID seems to give the CPU fan it's own 'space' ... as it is no longer forced by DTS to operate in just the 2-way mode like previously: 0RPM -> 4k RPM without any steps in-between. Now it always spins quietly at around 1200rpm and only increases the RPMs when the temps climb above 65C (gaming, video etc). I prefer this behavior rather than occasional 'JET' moments for no apparent reason.
