Hi!
My HTPC has an ASUS E45M1-I Deluxe mainboard. I updated the AMD RAID ROM from version 3.2 to 3.3.1540.19.
There is also a VBIOS but without GOP driver. The BIOS has no “Fast Boot Mode” setting, too.
Even more interesting, it has no AHCI ROM, only a RAID ROM. But this board doesn’t even support RAID configurations.
Is it possible to insert a GOP driver?
Is the AMD GOP driver that comes with UBU an universial binary?
Would the insertion of a GOP driver bring some benefits even for a mainboard without “Ultra Fast Boot Mode” support?
Here is the output of UBU:

EDIT: If I select 5 to auto-update the OROMs, only the one with GUID ending in "FC" gets updated.
As you can see above, there is also also a GUID ending with "FD".
