Open BIOS in UEFITool and Extract "Intel image"




Right click on Intel image - Extract as is - Save and then what? What am I supposed to do with the extracted file?

Rename the extracted body like the original BIOS and flash it.

Wow, man, thank you so much! I didn’t realize that you’ve written a special guide for flashing ASRock motherboards. I just did it without any problems. Unfortunately I still hear chirping sounds coming from my mechanical hard drives but at least I know that I have the latest ROM version.


That could mean a defective HDD, use a S.M.A.R.T. tool to check the drive’s health.

They are perfectly fine, dude. :slight_smile: Thank you nevertheless. These sounds started happening after I changed the motherboard with this one. With the old one there were no such sounds. I suppose that it’s the way the Intel controller handles these drives. Not too sure yet.

If this chirping sound coming out of last gen Seagate’s 2TB and 3TB…then it is a well documented Seagate problem…every now and then they recalibrate itself, and this has nothing to do with onboard controller…

Hey everyone!

Quick question, I have a customers computer in my shop and looking to add an SSD, its a ASUS P8Z68-M Pro, its a Z68 motherboard that I’m looking to put in the latest Intel OROM, what is the best one to use for this chipset? They are not doing any RAID currently, but they may in the future, I would like to put the latest UEFI OROM Modules now and make sure I have trim support…

Thanks!

Welcome at Win-RAID Forum!

I recommend to put the TRIM in RAID0 modded Intel RAID ROM v12.9.0.2006 into the BIOS of the 6-Series Chipset mainboard.

SoniX,
will be UEFITool 0.19.4 and UEFIExtract 0.3.3 incorporated in UBU soon?
Thx.

Well why not manually replace them at latest UBU? That’s what I do at least.

Btw, UEFITool has a new icon:

I do …just noted to dev.
Btw,
links are here:

hello.
i’m interested in using this tool on a toshiba c850 to upgrade the processor to intel i7 so i think i need rPGA998 ffs file. i’m not sure if it helps but my problem is that after 30 minutes the laptop turns off. i read that it might have something to do with intel ME and/or turboboost.
thanks

I doubt, that you will get Intel Corei7 CPU support this way.
Furthermore you should keep in mind, that the UBU tool hasn’t been designed for being used with mobile systems.

temperature problems probably, ME & Turbo Boost are irrelevant

it’s not a temp problem. both procs have a TDP of 35W. regarding the turbo boost i’m thinking that maybe it requires more power…

35W is power consumption and not temperature threshold. The only way it could be power-related would be if you had a lower TDP cpu and upgraded to a higher TDP one while your power supply cannot handle the extra load.
