I got the same package contents from Dudu2002 with an additional file "bios.bin". I can send you that one if you want (courtesy of Dudu2002), unless he had an updated version. As I recall I couldn't get it to work.
EDIT: Oh I see Dudu2002 already replied Thanks for the effort Dudu2002!

apologize for that, i haven't even noticed that "Receive private messages from other users." is unchecked.
I corrected the settings now.
sorry for not finding the mod before, because my archiver is a uwp app "8 zip", it looks pretty but not that stable.
I re-downloaded the file, and got the mod with 7-zip.
unfortunately it does not work, thanks for your help anyway.

as failed flashing the modified bios.bin, i contacted Dudu2002 by email.
he generously provided more help.
i got a tool named "H2OUVE.exe" and generated a "vars.txt" and send him by email.
he modified one byte in the file, which must be the value can control whether display the advanced menu or not.
and i used the same tool to write the "vars" back.
it actually gots some errors(perhaps because of the protected range bios).
but this doesn't matter. the working section(and the only modified secton) is [03B] which is successfully writed.
and finally i can change the intel graphic's "DVTM pre-allocate memory". thanks for Dudu2002's great and generous effort!
my result is as below: https://i.imgur.com/Y9R8d24.jpg
