Hello,
I want to disable the hyperthreading on my predator helios 300 PH315-51 and I don't have the option in my BIOS setings. How I can disable the hyperthreading ?

    Did you find the answer? All i could find was that i need to install an unlocked BIOS as it's not available in the normal one. I have PH315-52 btw so the solution should be the same

    Sadly, that, and many other BIOS options are not available for us to tinker with in the Acer BIOS. I've found no reliable way to do it through the OS either. 

    It can technically be done, but it requires a modded BIOS version and another tool to get past the existing BIOS write protection. I doubt discussing it is encouraged, or supported by this community. If you venture down this road, just keep in mind, one wrong move and you may have created a very expensive doorstop. :)

    jakesu11y you are correct its against the ACUA (which no one takes the time to even read when they register an account here in this community) to discuss anything about either bios modding or bios password unlock or anything related to it acer reserves the right to ban/remove any accounts who do so without any previous warning also the bios advanced hidden features were not made for the end user to be tinkering with especially if they havent got a clue of what they are doing it causes system instability and in the worst cases non recoverable
