i have Asus H370 Pro Gaming Motherboard and want to Update GOP VBT and VBIOS
EFI GOP Driver SKL-AML - 9.0.1079
RAW GOP VBT SKYLAKE - 212
OROM VBIOS CoffeeLake - 1013
This is the Current Version.
For OROM VBIOS i have used CloneVBT from Version 1013 to 1019 it came out as cln_vbios.bin.
I renamed this to vbtskl.bin and copied it to the UBU Tool Files Folder Files/Intel/VBIOS/
For the GOP VBT i used my Bios File .cap with mmtool and extracted the Option.rom to vbt212.dat, used the BSF File from Sonix Mirror (Intel_GOP_VBT_r4/CFL/212/vbt.bsf) with BMP Tool from Intel and Saved All Settings to transfer.ssf
Then i opened with BMP Intel_GOP_VBT_r4/CFL/221/vbt.bsf and bin File and Applied All from the .SSF File to the new File and saved it to UBU Tool in \Files\intel\GOP_VBT\vbtskl.bin
With this new bin Files i started UBU Tool and wan´t to update my VBIOS and GOP VBT but for the OROM VBIOS no new Version would be displayed only 1013 not 1019
The new vbios updated file for UBU must renamed to Files\intel\VBIOS as “vbiosskl.dat”
Theres a readme file inside the VBIOS folder…
“for Skylake/Kabylake/Coffeelake vbiosskl.dat - support DevID 0406”
UBU is no longer updated, support is limited for later Intel 300+
EDIT: VBTs are smaller, if you check the guide correctly you would already know this…the guide is for reading, NOT for ignoring any parts of it…
Its this kind of behaviour that leads to miss small steps and get a bricked motherboard.
I told to read the damm guide…
This is the GOP UEFI VBT…NOT VBIOS VBT related.
You have VBT212 on Intel GOP VBT GUID 56752DA9-DE6B-4895-8819-1945B6B76C22
Latest is VBT231 on “Files\intel\GOP_VBT”
For EFI GOP Driver it works to replace it, and for OROM VBIOS Coffeelake it works to replace it (or Update it) but not for RAW GOP VBT
I have tried it with all Versions i have 221, 228 ,231 extracted the .bin with UEFITOOLNE from Bios File, Extracted all Settings from this bin File and Applied it to the new Version of this File with BMP Tool.
Double Checked it with CloneVBT for Info about Version, but can´t Update it with UBU Tool.
The original bios 3101 shows using CFL variation 1013, if you want to use same build, then
OROM VBIOS CoffeeLake - 1026
Source | COFFEELAKE | D1 209 | 0FD7 4055 | OROM | 1026 |
else the 1062.
About updating the modules with UBU… here it works and i can update whatever i want to max know versions, on the bios 3101
General rule, updating to max know versions…works. But this doesn’t mean that every motherboard will accept and doesn’t lose video signal or settings, so lower versions sometimes are the solution.
NOTE: Shared versions of vbt/vbios on the forum, outside the OP package, can lack the required .BSF files.
There are a few successful cases using the default config or script versions below, regarding settings, by direct replace, but this is user choice only to proceed.
Both tools/guides, UBU and GOP VBT settings transfer, are basically in a “limbo” since the end of the Intel 200 series/initial launch of the Intel 300 series.
And with this i end here my contribution on your mod, good luck.
