If you want to boot off an NVMe SSD in UEFI mode, you should allow it by choosing the related BIOS “BOOT” settings. The best choice is to DISABLE CSM (if such option is available).
Perhaps I ask stupid questions.
If turn off CSM, it will be possible to download a clean OS to my M2, even if it is not visible in the BIOS?
And in the end, after this, the OS will start with m2 …
I found a detailed guide on this site on how to install the operating system on NVME, and I will follow it. Thank you.
Thank you for the help
I have successfully modified BIOS for GA-B75-D3V (Rev. 1.0). BIOS is checked - NVME works. I share, you can upload BIOS to the forum.

Welcome to the Win-Raid Forum and thanks for your feedback!
A post was split to a new topic: [Offer] NVMe Mod GA-B75-D3V (Rev. 1.0) BIOS
hey guys, i just insert the nvme_small patch into my gigabyte ga-h81m-s1 rev 2.1, can anyone check if this is good to go yet and does it have to do anything with that pad file thing? thanks in advance
Seems ok, the pad thing is your task, to check if, in the same volume any pads were originaly removed or new were generated, agaisnt the original bios file from Gigabyte, at first glance seems neither.

Welcome to the Win-Raid Forum!
The NVMe module has been inserted into the correct position of the BIOS, but I cannot verify, that no Pad-file has been moved, inserted or removed by the modding procedure. For a comparison the original BIOS is missing.
Edit: MeatWar was a few seconds quicker than me, but our results are identical.
umm, my task? how shall i check it
is it possible to send the original bios so you could check it? i’m new to this
To be able to compare your modded BIOS with the original one we need them both.

i got the original from here
@trant
According to what I can see the BIOS modification seems to be well done.
You can flash the modded BIOS at own risk according to >this< Guide.
Good luck!

i just got it flashed and it worked instantly, very props to your check :>
Hi!
I have motherboard X10DRT-P.
I tried to modify the bios in different ways. But booting from nvme did not appear.
Original bios original bios
Mod bios for example mod_bios
Use MMTool different versions. Try different versions bios.
I flashed the BIOS via IPMI.
And have you read the guide part on OS installation?
And after flashed, did you dumped again and verified that was indeed flashed and DXE was present?
I don’t see any PATA SS devices in bios. I’ll try to install Windows 10. Before this I installed Ubuntu.
Tomorrow I will try to download the dump, but most likely the DXE modules are working. I recorded modules from a newer motherboard and the BIOS hung on initializing the modules.
I tried downgrading the bios version.
Found a UEFITool version that does not erase pad files. Flashed it and did not see any effect.
Not present in all kind of bioses…and this is a Server class motherboard, the guide was primarly written for desktop platforms bios.
Thats why the dump option is another way of verifiying it.
I did not saw any original pads deleted or any new ones generated in the mod file.
So first i think you should check if the system is indeed accepting and using mod files and then follow the guide on UEFI OS install, if still no luck then you should look for alternatives like the use of UEFI tool.
That’s it, not much anything else to do, its user error or mod error.
