Hi there,
has anyone every tried to upgrade a ME from 9.0 to 9.1 or 9.5: Is it possible to change some corresponding UEFI modules (if there are any) to get a newer ME FW running correctly?
[EDIT] Are there really any 8-Series Boards with a 9.5 ME FW? 0o [/EDIT]
If i look at a stock ME FW with FIT the settings differ from that one that comes with the BIOS. If i replace the ME FW in the BIOS do the settings get deleted and is this ME FW flashed anyways?
Why is there a ME FW in the BIOS file if it doesn’t update the ME FW when flashing the BIOS or am i getting something wrong?
ME Firmware is so strange to me …

I am looking for people with 11.6 Consumer LP systems who are able to restore from bad flashes via hardware methods (programmer, dual BIOS with unlocked Flash Descriptors etc) in order to test 11.7 firmware.
hi, maybe i can help, my mobo is gigabyte GA-Z270M-D3H

You cannot. I’m looking for PCH-LP, not PCH-H.
Intel ME 11.0 Corporate PCH-LP Firmware v11.0.24.1000
Also, is there anyone with 11.6 Consumer LP system who is able to restore from bad flashes (programmer, dual BIOS etc) in order to help me test 11.7 firmware?
A new ME firmware for Intel 100/200 series consumer boards:
Intel Management Engine (ME) Firmware Version 11.7.0.1229 (S & H) (1.5MB)
http://www.station-drivers.com/index.php…id=2819&lang=en
Edit: not for use on Intel 100 series Skylake boards, unless it’s already been updated to a Kabylake-compatible firmware.
Edit: successfully flashed my GIGABYTE - GA-Z170MX-Gaming 5 (rev. 1.0) board’s F21 Kabylake bios to updated ME firmware 11.7.0.1229.
After having successfully flashed the new IntelME Consumer Firmware v11.7.0.1229 (CON H, 1.5MB) into the BIOS of my ARock Z170 mainboard, I can confirm the report posted by rvail623.
Here are the related MEInfo reports I got before (left Pic) and after (right Pic) the Firmware flash procedure using the tool FWUpdLcl64.exe:
Just to be sure, Intel ME 11.6 Consumer PCH-H Firmware v11.6.25.1229 is for Intel Skylake 6500 no?
To be sure, you did not read the first post at all, if you ask such a question.
I have PCH_LP Consumer and flashed 11.7.0.1229 LP firmware successfully . I flashed ME_11.7_Consumer_C0_LP_Production.bin ( there was also this firmware file:ME_11.7_Consumer_C0_LP_Power_Down_Mitigation_Production)
I have 100 series (Skylake) … Consumer LP
