No, you "Added" something to that, thus that is a modified BIOS. I want the file you dumped from BIOS, which you then edited. However, I doubt you did that, you probably edited stock BIOS, then flashed it.
If you did dump BIOS, before you edited it at first, send me that unedited first BIOS Dump/backup (not a stock BIOS, not an old stock BIOS, only an untouched BIOS backup from your system is what I mean)
The file i sent you before… (together with a pictur of AFUWin64GUI picture) is a CLEAN dump of stock Bios WITHOUT ANY EDIT or MOD’s
this : CLICK
That one is messed up too, ie you flashed by /GAN before making that dump, or edited the BIOS and flashed in other way before making that dump - or someone else did possibly, if you are not the original purchaser of this board.
However, all these BIOS are working (ie bootable) for you, so we can properly edit any of them with NVME Mod. Which do you want me to use? I will make you mod BIOS properly with both MMTool and UEFITool, then you can test
i just need a working Bios for a normal M.2 PCie SSD.
I’m in your hands…
Here you go - flash with EZ Flash (May need renamed to stock name, unsure, if so only put on on USB at time since it has to be in root of USB) - http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?fil…707945212611891
there are 2 ROM files in the archive.
I can flash anyone of those? or it’s a sequence of flashing? one first and then second?
Yes, either. It’s same mod BIOS, but one has NVME edit done with UEFITool and other done with MMTool.
In case one is failing on this board, use the other.
CLEAR… will try in few mins and will try to Install a WIndows 10 copy…
how should i create the USB drive?
GPT/UEFI ?
MBR/Bios CSM ?
Either should be OK since CSM is enabled, just be sure NVME is RAW
Maybe @-=N&N=- will get a PM about this tag and stop in to advise too, if not, you could also try sending him a PM
UEFITool files has been not even recognized as valid from EZ Flash utility.
MMTool accepted and flashed but… unfortunately it return the same issue.
NVme SSD is not initialized but once the MBR/CSM USB win10 installation reach the selection of the drive where to instal to, it mark the disk as Not bootable.
@Lost_N_BIOS
Sorry, I can’t understand what that Win10 install page is showing since text is not in English (I need to see all buttons, info there in english (not you explain)
However, I thought of this, here is much easier thing you can do! Install Win10 on SSD normally (or spare HDD, but if you do HDD be sure to align partition first manually like it’s SSD)
Then clone to NVME as I outline at following link, it’s info about doing this for Win7, but you can do Win10 just the same - Installing Clean Win7x64 on M2.2280 PCIe Gen3x4 SSD A-DATA SX8200 Pro
True…
Simply the yellow writing with a trangle warning… say that that SSD can not be a Win10 destination disk as it will be not bootable.
---------------------------
Anyway, my impression is that this system DO NOT HAVE AT all a UEFI.
A simple UEFI USB Drive with Acronis true image DO NOT BOOT… as the system return a MBR boot of UEFI media Error Attempt
Nowere in the bios there is a UEFI option and not even a Secure Boot…
For how many modules we can add to System Bios no UEFI Boot "hook" is present to link the NVme SSD
As I mentioned, you explaining “Some” of what is shown there is not what I need. I need to see that exact image all in English
Please use edit option if you need to add more comments and no one has replied yet, thanks
This BIOS is UEFI, and it has CSM, and I linked you to a user with this exact model board that already flashed NVME mod BIOS and installed windows 10 to it in the past
I never mentioned Acronis, nor should you use it, unless you find a guide showing you the EXACT same thing I made guide for (which is not a general clone guide)
Until we hear from that user, you’ll have to wait or send him PM. Obviously Secure boot mode is already enabled, since CSM is in the BIOS and enabled by default, if there was not secure mode enabled this option would not be in the IOS and enabled.
Just because you cannot see a setting doesn’t mean it’s not there or enabled etc. Plus, as mentioned, that other user already confirmed Win10 install on this system.
Maybe i missed the link… can you re-past it… maybe i’ll contact him directly and ask if he still store a copy of his Bios to use on my board.
See post #2, and post #6 where I gave exact post #'s from that thread. I already tagged him here too in this thread, hopefully he’ll stop in in next day or two
His BIOS would be same exact one I sent you and you are already using, mod BIOS for this only done two ways and you already confirmed UEFITool method wont flash so he had to use MMTool method.
I saw he succeed beside the mobo has a brend name slightly different (mine is USB3 version)
but as i understood he just inserted the wrong Nvme module… I suppose the file you sent me has correct one in it.
If it can help… with only Nvme SSD connected to PCI slot, the Bios report the presence of a PAta_SS disk.
Anyway i keep thinking that BIOS do not have UEFI active as this is the message when i try to boot from a GPT/UEFI USB Media
Any idea about it? @Lost_N_BIOS
@Lost_N_BIOS
What do you think about the previus message here posted?
IS it really beliveable that CSM-UEFI boot is enable with this reported message?
here is the Bios chip file extracted with the USB programmer
Chip is a MX25L3206E
HERE IS THE FILE
If you still have that machine after all this time - you need to boot the usb stick in efi mode.
Hi from brazil, i have an P8H61-M LE(without usb3 support) it is compatible?
also none of this links is working, is tinyupload.com down?
@meninowq
What does USB have to do with NVMe?
The domain tinyupload.com is out of service and these are private user links, not controlled by the forum.
If looking for NVMe mod for that motherboard you should follow the guide, as plenty of users already done it:
