Hey I was wondering if any genius would give a go of unlocking the Acer Aspire M7721 bios so I could overclock my i7 920 processor. I saw there was an unlock for the M7720 but I am not sure if it would work and just make my computer useless.
Here is the link to the latest version of the bios form Acer's site: Bios Download

Seems we have sorted the issue, and the BIOS has been modded with the same features in the m7720.

Dam that was quick thank you very much Will test when I get home.
edit: It installed fine and windwos boots up so great job. But I can only change the RAM Memory Frequency and change the QPI Link Speed this is still good but I am wondering if you can unlock the settings to change the CPU host frequency, Uncore multiplier, CPU vcore, QPI vcore and DIMM Voltage so I can do a proper overlcok on my system but if you cant unlock those settings then its fine I will just have to live with what I have got

matt,
what's the safe way to upgrade the bios to the modified one so that certain options will be unlocked and available?
thanks.

Well Done my friends,....
Everthing works fine with the dos USB bootdisk . Thanks for the support ....
But hmmm... I can only change the RAM Memory Frequency and change the QPI Link Cool ,nice job .....
But i need more can you also unlock the settings to change the CPU host frequency, Uncore multiplier, CPU vcore, QPI vcore and DIMM Voltage so I can overclock my system better with fast 3D renders .... for Vue 8.5 etc...
Nobody works for free , so if you need a donation ...
Let me know what you think, about this .....
Ps . what is the difference between this ....

Hi quella,
Honestly I have no idea what the reference to the mydigitallife link was, it wasn't really a request so I can't compare it to what's been done here much. As for unlocking those additional options, this BIOS has no more hidden features. If you wanted more I'd need a tester with a spare BIOS chip who could test retail images retro fitted to this board.

Hi my friend TheWiz,
Thanks for your fast answer, amazing....
At this moment with the unlocked bios for the aspire m 7721, there is no more hidden content , well done....
But hmmm... I can only change the RAM Memory Frequency and change the QPI Link l and a few other settings,ok not bad .....
However we can not change all the settings...: for example the CPU host frequency, Uncore multiplier, CPU vcore, QPI vcore and DIMM Voltage etc.... grrrrrrrrrrrr...
We can see the content , but we can not adjust the content (), gr............
Ps ,
What do you mean :

Hi my friend TheWiz,
Yeah ,... you are right , we need a spare Bios chip , for testing ,if something go wrongs , ....
Another solution is maybe rewrite the AEGIS Panel foxconn Software overclock utility, so that this is working with the acer aspire 7721 motherboard from foxconn.
Just a idea,
Quella,
