I have successfully flashed the mod BIOS, I can see PATA in the boot list.
Now I am installing windows on it. Thank you very much!
I dont see a MSI flash guide on your topic. I believe that this guide from MSI site is great, the tool is MSI forum flashing tool. Pls read it and update to the flashing guide topic if you find it good.
This guide has previously helped me to recover failure BIOS flashing 2 weeks ago (totally washed out, even serial & MAC address). I used this guide to flash the mod BIOS.
Go read Step3 Additional notes⌠dont want to call you a blind user anymoreâŚyouâre going to start hating me soon and joining my fans list, but yeah the guide is for reading!
Oh and dont forget Step 4âŚhumm?

I am again wasting my free time for a user, who hasnât read the guide before posting his/her problemâŚ
Nobody is able to boot off the disk drive named âPATAâ, which is listed within the âBOOTâ section of the BIOS after having successfully inserted the NVMe EFI module into the mainboard BIOS and disabled CSM.
This has been clearly stated by me within my Guide (= first post of this thread):
Users, who want to boot directly off the NVMe SSD, have to install the OS in UEFI mode by following âStep 4â of my Guide.
Usually they arenât related, you boot from an RAID volume or an NVMe disk, with NVMe OS support.
If you have a specific issue you should try to explain it better, the NVMe mod is only the insertion of a DXE driver.
EDIT: That usually wont happen if the system is newly OS fresh installed, what you describe happens to a lot of users with their systems as the OS controller from AHCI to RAID has different HW IDâs, so it breaks the previous OS on the system.
Fernando explains this on one of his guides i thinkâŚor a the least i know that he warns users about it very often on several posts.
i remember i asked same question years ago, itâs not i am boot from a raid volume, itâs i moded my sabertooth z87 and my asrock f"something" z77, it work normaly, but after i set the intel sata controller to raid mode(normaly is ahci mode), then the mother board wonât boot, it just black screen when power up, no self check, everything is not working, like âa mother board with a damanged bios chipâ
Hello.
I added Samsung 980 with PCIe x16 adapter.
Unfortunately cannot boot with it ,even if BIOS show âUnknow HDDâ.
Boot with W10 install (USB thumb) and can choose it for install but message is âWindows cannot be installed on this disk , your computer cannot boot with itâ.
Itâs recognized by W10 and i can clone W10 SATA => NVMe ,but still cannot boot with it .
HDTune return only 800Mb/s ,no more.
You people like to get in trouble and mess it all.
Perform a clean OS install in GPT (NO MBR), delete all partitions from the NVMe disk during OS setup destination drive, select now the RAW disk, install, done.
The NVMe being recognized in Windows is not a surprise at all, when not a system boot drive its just a regular storage NVMe disk.
Hi, I am trying to add NVMe boot support for my Intel J3160 board. However, when I open MMTool, the window size is not correct as I cannot see some of the options.
I tried to use tab to insert the module. However, both âSave Imageâ and âSave Image asâ complains about âError in Savingâ, and the saved image file is empty (0 byte).
I have tried to run the program in Windows 7 compatibility mode, the result is the same.
The BIOS file is here ThinMiniN3160Quad17.rar, which is located at âEFI/BOOT/BS00A282.BINâ.
I have tried UEFITool to insert the module, it does not complain. However, the BIOS file contains some pad-file and I do not know the modified BIOS is correct.
