    Hello.

    I would like to know if it is possible to unlock the advanced menu of my
    Sony VAIO CR21Z BIOS. I recently upgraded my CPU from T7250 to
    the unsupported Penryn T8100. This CPU is recognized but with the
    wrong multiplier (10x 2GHZ instead of 10.5x 2.1GHz). So maybe I can
    change the multipliers there.

    The link of the BIOS is http://www.sony.co.uk/support/en/product...56269_3814

    Thanks in advance
