Just added Gig Performer Pro 5.2.2 to my Lenovo with AMD Ryzen. Tried to do the optimization as recommended in the downloadable document, but my BIOS looks quite a bit different than the ones I am used to working with (Intel processors and Dell/HP devices).
Has anybody done any documentation for similar situations? I tried to find what would be comparable to the advised settings in the guide, but a lot of them either aren’t there, or are categorized so differently, I just can’t find them. I work in IT, so I am not completely computer illiterate.
Thanks for any help you can give me. I can’t wait to try this out on a gig.

My advice is to skip that one and tweak UEFI/BIOS only as the last option, if you still have glitches after all other tweaks applied.

Which Ryzen processor do you have? BTW: I have had good luck with the Ryzen processors working with GP and VSTs.
AMD systems use AMD’s AGESA firmware as the base for CPU, memory and power‑management options, while Intel systems use Intel’s own reference code. The menus, option names and even which settings exist follow those different codebases. On Lenovo laptops, especially consumer/office lines, the OEM often hides most “tweaker” options that desktop boards expose. On AMD that tendency is even stronger: there are fewer exposed CPU/memory options, which makes the menu structure diverge from Intel models. For many ThinkPad/ThinkBook/ThinkCentre models, Lenovo’s PDF manual includes a “UEFI BIOS Setup” section that lists the main menu items and briefly defines them. You can usually get this by going to Lenovo Support. Sometimes you can also find videos on YouTube for your model that cover BIOS settings (if you are lucky!).
It is a Ryzen 5 7000 series.
