enable 'Undervolt Protection' to use XTU

[nixSen]

I'm trying to access XTU but it's telling me to enable 'Undervolt Protection' in Bios.

i'm running a z690 Asus rog maximus hero. Windows 11.

Where in Bios can i enable this ? I see pictures of an 'Undervolt protection' section that can be enabled or disabled but I don't see it on my bios ? i have V 3401 installed. Do i need to install an older version to see 'Undervolt Protection' option ? The bios pictures that i see are from asus mother boards which is the part that's confusing me.

i just wanna be able to utilize xtu app. pls help

I've never used XTU or changed that option, but Undervolt Protection is listed in the Extreme Tweaker/Tweakers Paradise section. I'm assuming that's the option you need to change. 

I have the same board and BIOS, so it should be there for you as well.

I had to turn off "memory isolation" in Windows 11 before I could get XTU to run. I reengage "memory isolation" when not using XTU. Also, some virtualization stuff can get in the way and may need to be disabled.

Hi @bruinor 

Just for future reference, you can always use the UEFI search function on the top menu bar. Makes navigating the UEFI much easier.
