[REQUEST] Alienware X51 R3 BIOS unlock，3Q

[iamyangyi@126.com]

OK, great, thank you for the new image!  OC Root menu is visible, that is good!  
Now, all we need to do is change each of the settings gray out and Suppress if values for each setting.  This is done via IFR output and hex editing

Extract setup module PE32, get IFR using Universal IFR extractor, then view each item under "Form: OC" and you'll see each setting has "Gray out If" and "Suppress If True"

Here is 0.7 version of Universal IFR Extractor
https://www.sendspace.com/file/na2ybc

Here is how you change those, open setup.sct in hex editor, find the Form: OD ID via hex (01 86 13 27 1F 00) then change from this bold items below
Form: OC, FormId: 0x2713 {01 86 13 27 1F 00}
0x28615 Gray Out If {19 82}
0x28617 QuestionId: 0xA79 equals value 0x1 {12 06 79 0A 01 00}
0x2861D Gray Out If {19 82}
0x2861F QuestionId: 0xA79 equals value 0x1 {12 06 79 0A 01 00}
0x28625 Suppress If {0A 82}
0x28627 True {46 02}

To this (And do same for any/all settings following within the OC menu area).  You can test the root level changes only first, changing this one may unlock them all, but I doubt it since each one has it's own gray/suppress constraints.... Probably have to do each one individually

Form: OC, FormId: 0x2713 {01 86 13 27 1F 00}
0x28615 Gray Out If {19 82}
0x28617 QuestionId: 0xA79 equals value 0x1 {12 06 79 0A FF 00}<< this will change to Value = 0xFF on your modified file's IFR output
0x2861D Gray Out If {19 82}
0x2861F QuestionId: 0xA79 equals value 0x1 {12 06 79 0A FF 00} << this will change to Value = 0xFF on your modified file's IFR output
0x28625 Suppress If {0A 82}
0x28627 True {47 02}  << this will change to False on your modified file's IFR output

If you need this done for you, I can do later tonight if Genius239 does not get to it before I have time (Thanks if you do Genius239!)

Okay, thank you. If it's convenient for you, please make one for me. I'll test it. I'll understand the HEX content you wrote slowly.

OK, I can do tonight, it's lots of changes. For now, you can test this one, with only the changes mentioned above, root level only changed, it may further unlock settings, but possibly not and we'll have to do them all one by one.
https://www.sendspace.com/file/6nfieu <<< NO ONE USE THIS BIOS, or any modified BIOS for this system!

Have you flashed modified BIOS before on this system? BootGuard may be enabled, so may cause boot failure, please wait to flash!
Download this and run MEInfoWin twice - https://mega.nz/#!GRFHjQyY!OyVZDCdMQmWku...vsQd51wxDI

First, run Meinfowin without switch and post full scrolled image, bottom is most important (Check left side for "Measured Boot" and "Verified Boot", if both disabled or NO, then it's OK)

Then run MEinfoWin -fwsts - and post full output here in text or image

Or you can go ahead, if you see FPF = NO
FPF HW Source value: FPF HW Not Set
ME FPF Fusing Patch Status: Anything but YES/Patched/Enabled/Set etc

[Lost_N_BIOS]

Did you test the above BIOS yet? If yes, did any new settings appear or still same? Please note, I did not intend for any to appear, only made that one root level change at the OC menu, sometimes this is all that's needed. If nothing changed, it's kind of expected and each setting will need to be edited one by one to unhide.

Sorry, I slept too late yesterday, and I tested it after I passed it. Thank you!

[Lost_N_BIOS]

No rush to test, I just expected to see several posts here when I got back and there was none

Still not sure, if you flashed the BIOS or not? If yes, do you now see all settings in OC menu, or still same and mainly empty with only few setting?

I just checked with MEINFO. You said "Measured Boot" and "Verified Boot" are both Enabled and not unlocked. What should I do about this? Should I change it to Disabled to refresh firmware?

[Lost_N_BIOS]

This means certain sections of the BIOS, or possibly all, cannot be edited and flashed or it will not boot.  Let me check and see if setup is within those regions, sadly it usually is.   So this means, nothing you can do to enable these settings due to BootGuard enabled at FPF (Burned into PCH @ Enabled)

*Edit - I doble-checked via Intel FITc and UEFITool NE and correct hashes are set, configured properly, along with your FPF enabled (Burned into the PCH chipset) MEInfo output, this means BootGuard is properly configured and enabled and no sections we need to change in your BIOS can be edited. 

Not even a single byte of the setup module we edit for this can be touched. 
It's located in a Cyan marked region of the BIOS = CYAN — every byte is covered by one of vendor’s chain-of-trust code entry

DO NOT FLASH ABOVE BIOS!!! This applies to anyone with this model

It will brick your board, and hardware flash programmer will be required to recover the board (with a valid, verified backup in hand before this happens) 
So this all means, I am sorry, your BIOS cannot be edited in any way, by anyone, without causing a brick.

The only way to use a different modified BIOS on this system is to replace the PCH with a new chip without Bootguard burned in, and then disable at BIOS/ME in the new mod BIOS.

It doesn't matter to brush the firmware black screen. This motherboard has SPI pins. I can successfully restore BIOS with a programmer (tested normally). The key is how to modify it.

[Lost_N_BIOS]

English I translated though, see my edit again above, I made one more edit while you replied.
It does not matter what you have, or what you do to the BIOS, this (Bootguard enabled and set) is burned into the chipset
Replacing chipset is the only way to use modified BIOS on this system. Nothing can be done, except and until you replace the chipset with a new one without bootguard burned into it.
