I just bought an Aubox with Ryzen 7, first boot, I go into the BIOS and I can’t believe my eyes, this BIOS is a mess, I’ve never seen such a limited BIOS, literally no settings options, memory, processor, performance profiles, literally nothing can be configured there. I own the device and I have no influence on how it works. I understand that some people simply don’t know what they’re doing, they buy a computer, turn it on, it works and that’s all they need to be happy, but there are people who have knowledge and want to get the maximum performance out of the device through configuration, and with such a limited BIOS, it’s not a computer, it’s a toy for children. I won’t even run the system on this toy. I’m disgusted, I’m packing it up and sending it back to AliExpress, what a disaster.

It’s good to know how to enter the BIOS with all the possible configuration options: Yes and No.

```
   Expert users know how to access these settings.

```

The problem is for inexperienced users: there are configuration options in the settings that can damage the BIOS or simply prevent the operating system from starting.

Hello,

I tried the Alt+F5 tip on my AuBox r7 8745HS but it didn’t work.

Has anyone been able to access an advanced bios menu on the AuBox?

I completely agree with the original poster, the current bios is extremely limited.

I checked it, you just have to restart and enter the BIOS again.

Is your check on the AuBox Ryzen 7 8745HS ?  
On mine, nothing happens when pressing Alt+F5 in the bios, no pop-up, nothing. This is different from what I have seen on other Chuwi computers for which the Alt+F5 is working.  
I did try twice: first to press Alt+F5 in bios, then select save changes and exit, then go back to bios: and nothing changed, still the default bios.

If you got access to a different menu on this exact model, would you have some screenshot or pictures of what are the new menus?

The menu is the same, it just has more tabs.

Thank you, but I am interested in knowing what are the additional settings it provides as I can’t access it.

I did it all right. There is a new menu item with several dozen sub-items.

I found everything except adjusting the fan speed
