Yes, the ME firmware is corrupted. It might be easy to fix it in your specific case so try the following: Download/Decompress the attachment and run Flash Programming Tool with command "fptw64.exe -me -f ME_B85M-G_3602.bin" followed by "fptw64.exe -greset". If you don’t see any error, the system will reboot automatically. Afterwards, try MEInfo -verbose again.
So I ended up creating a bootable USB with MS-DOS and used the DOS version of fwupdlcl.exe with the BIN file provided by my motherboard manufacturer. The update to 12.0.70.1652 worked. Thanks for the help. Couldn’t figure out how to use the EFI version.
Thank you. I saw these as well at the same time. I’m glad someone else is checking LVFS as well. It’s a great resource. I hope Microsoft Update Catalog can be easy to use/check someday.
Thank you for the feedback Ataemonus. Can I see a MEInfo -verbose output for reference purposes? Also, a firmware dump using "fptw64 -me -d csme.bin", if possible. I don’t have these for CSME 15.0 H.
By the way, if someone with a H410 or B460 (CSME 14.5) board can provide a firmware dump (fptw64 -me -d csme.bin), that would be great. Same with Lakefield (CSME 13.30) but my chances there are slim to none.
Trying to build the image for updating the ME firmware on a Z490 with 14.1.53.1602, yet the latest version of FIT will not accept any CMP file. Error 208: [Fit Actions] Chipset Init Product version does not match the configured PCH SKU type. and so on.
PS. It worked in the end, what the hell ? I did not change anything, weird.
One quick question, I somehow got it right by mistake yesterday, but now … not sure, I deleted the built image and now I need to build it again for a H470 board. Where does the PHY file go, as the iUnit Binary file, or as PDR Binary file, because I can load it for both with no error ?
