run it as Administrator and upload the result file.
And to verify if It's updated use SlicToolkit 2.1 :

If It show Slic 2.1 It will mean that update is gone well, but menu unlock don't !
Remember update will occour 3 - 4 minutes then laptop reboot by itself, isn't so ?

Opssss !!! I found an error ! It's wrong name Recovery Bios filename copying was cutted last number 4 in USBimg32.ima file "VA70HWX6.fd", check it You you too in your open it by WinImage.
So I recompiled USB Prep and reupload it, so download new and retry Recovery mode. (Previous is deleted)

With Andy's PhoenixTool 2.51b2 took 2 modules from your bios mod, FE3542FE-C1D3-4EF8-657C-8048606FF670_857.ROM in DUMP folder, and BIOS853.BIOS at DUMP/BIOS. Then I 7zipped your tool, with fptw 9.5 did backup of my bios, to keep my W8 activation key, then back to PhoenixTool, open my own dump bios, set advanced to let me modify all modules, when the program let me modify, I overwrited my modules with the two extracted from your bios, flashed the bios with FTPW and voila! All bios options unlocked. Thank you very much. Also I did a mod over PADDING_2090.ROM wich contains cpu microcodes, with HxD I overwrited microcode 17 for 03c6 over 16 (1st microcode at file, same size) and it's working flawless. Thank you very much BDMaster.
P.D. The trick to allow Nvflash for windows to find the card and read/write vbios is to keep GPU-Z open, I found it cause to make some benchmark apps to find Intel and Nvidia boards I had to keep it open. If someone knows how to unlock vbios this laptop would be a rocket.
Nice Work ! You are a very smart guy !
I will look closer friend You're going fast.

Hey BDMaster, the new image (I named the file to VA70HWX64.fd) but it still doesn't work, I know that it looks for the usb drive when I try to do a recovery, but it doesn't flash. And for some reason both the tools doesn't work :S

Link to download :
http://rghost.net/52556249
You have to download it then unpack it and You will find a folder with 3 files into.
Use USBImage.exe It will clone the USB Image file USBimg32.ima on an real USB stick that You have and It will be just Dos Formatted and contining VA70HWX64.fd.
So You don't nave to do nothing only clone Image on real USB, then Use the Recovery Method :
1 Shudown pc
2 Unplug Power cable
3 Connect USB stick in 2.0 version Port
4 Press and take FN+Esc Keys and not release
5 Plug Power cable and switch on button
6 When led and fan are going on release FN+Esc Keys
3 - 4 minutes write eeprom then reboot, that's all.
If there will be problem, Let me know.
For Programs : You have to disable your antivirus as these progs may be cause a False Positive and Antivirus will delete as they starting.

We know that tis mod works as Tonma used my modded modules and He had menu unlocked, now It could be a problem on my extracted bios pure (I will check it) or SecureBoot on your bios, so I don't know yet which version actually You have on your laptop.
1 write to me Your bios ver. using now and which SO You have installed
2 check if your bios have ScureBoot active and say to me (reboot and go in bios)
3 to disable SecureBoot You have create in bios Supervisor password then can disable SecureBoot, otherwise no.
4 Understanding why You cannot run Universal Bios Backup Tool and FPT.
I think You have some antivirus and antimalaware active, so better to try disable all
and retry to run this tools, if there are yet problems, You can try to reboot in safe mode ( http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheprob...dows-7.htm ) and try to run programs or at least I have to give a link to download Hiren's Boot cd 15.2 which has a Win7 live version complete to use only standard DLL and haven't any other progs locks into.
So You can try from there, or give an USB Image Dos preformatted to boot from it and use FPT in dos mode.
So let me someting and We can start !

Hello, @BDMaster
I tryed to flash your version of BIOS:
1) Created flash drive
2) Disabled secure boot
And follow flash procedure from Readme file
After insert flash and hold FN+ESC after maybe 20 secs PC boot normaly and then shutdown, but nothing happened.
Here is backup of my running BIOS created with Universal Bios Backup:

I read and flash the bios with FPTW 9.5.14.1724 in Windows 8.1 64bits, right now I'm testing a merge with own backup and @BDMaster version plus some changes, like Intel Haswell VGA Bios v2178 (cloned settings with Intel Binary Modification Program 2.67e) , Intel Haswell GopDriver v5.0.1036 and Intel 06C3 Microcode v17. For next planned test I'd like to update Intel Sata and Raid, but it takes some time. Don't worry after all tested I'll have located the rom modules to swap so to mod a bios will be fast, just make the same changes into any other backup.
