Same error for microcode, if it’s the same thing as you (with the SoniX file)
Already reported but no response
since yesterday I’m trying to extract the ami setup with UBU but it continues in the extraction operation creating a text file of over 2 GB
How important is it that microcode follows the same ordering scheme as the original BIOS? The GenUSRmC.bat files seems to order them from highest to lowest, however after manually editing the generation file I get the proper order of the original BIOS.

At the end of August, SoniX told me that he had business to take care of in September that would go into October. I’m as sure as I can be that he’ll be back.

Got a problem with UBU_v1_80_a17.
It used to work before, now it’s giving errors. (multiple cmd windows opening then auto closing). The bios file is amd, not intel.
Tried them all from a17 to a19.
Same issue.
It’s weird because it was working fine before
Hi
I tried using the latest UBU version to upgrade the microcodes on my Asrock Z270 Pro4
I used FPT -bios -d to extract the bios region.
When replacing the microcodes, the program asks if i want to use mmtool or uefireplace, so i tried both and ended up with 2 different bios.bin files. Which one is safe to use with FPT -bios -f ?
μcodes replaced with UefiReplace
μcodes replaced with mmtool_a5
Thanks for the help
No such thing in mods…
Same mcode start offset as the original ASROCK file starts @ 0xC10400, MMtool version produces the same, it should be the best version to pick.

Used the mmtool one and all went well. Thanks a lot!
Our guy, SoniX, should be back fairly soon. See his updated UBU-MEGA site.
His friend, Foxy, is giving him a hand right now - see the ChangeLog_b1. Updated UBU is now in Beta stage: UBU_v1_80_b1
Thanks Foxy! Give our guy our best!

I have an ASUS Crosshair VIII Hero WiFi and I am unable to modify the CAP file and use the BIOS Flashback with the motherboard anymore. Also, the latest 1.80B1 doesn’t update the microcode on my BIOS as well.
I know. It will be corrected in the next issue.

Sorry for my intervening.
The last time I used UBU was like 3 years ago, when I modded the microcode(s) on my x299 rampage encore.
It worked quiet well.
Well, since I made a system upgrade with an Z790 apex encore, I wanted to modify the MC as well.
So I came back to this tool.
Installed python with cmd “extra” ( pip install colorama pltable). dropped the MMTool files into the root folder (renamned it ofc) and started the Ubu.exe… instead of the .bat which it had 3 years ago.
So far the preperation…
Loading in my BIOS… then I get asked what method to use… Ive read somewhere on here to use MMtool, which I did. 3 years ago this question did arise. I also tried the other 2 methods.
Anyway. When loading in the bios it seems UBU cant read the MC, I also dont get the option to extract the MC.
The question I have now is:
Did I install it correctly? Does it need to be installed any different?
Is it not compatible with the last gen of mainboards / Bioses?
Basically. Is the issue im experiencing a user or programm problem?
Using UBU 1.80.b1
It opens and reads… the mcodes are automatically extracted to the “Extracted” folder on UBU root.

Oh boy. Thank you very much for clearing that out!
Didnt notice it. 3 years ago you had to manually extract it. Yikes!
Thanks for the info. The MCs are indeed in the “Extracted” Folder.
Ive read here and there that the exchange of the MCode doesnt work on some boards / Bios versions.
Is this also an issue on the said Apex Encore?
Too modern bios/mcu structure, for relying on UBU dependencies (old “leaked” AMI tools and private UEFI tool project)… besides the great tool and developer dedication, but i do suggest to try the various options presented and compare them, especially the offsets.
Still you have the USB BFB feature so no big deal some try outs.
Does tool work for removing Asrock Secure Flash check with newer motherboards? Amd 550/650, Intel 660/760?
I tried patch on a 760 and it looks like same changes as on the X470 post, but tool warns it does not work on amd400+/Intel300+

Welcome to the Win-Raid Forum!
The currently latest UBU tool works with modern mainboards, but does not yet offer the option to remove the ASRock Secure BIOS Flash check.
Ok, thanks. Too bad Asrock put lock on BIOS
