Hi there,
I want to ask something. My mobo (ASUS Maximus VIII Ranger) was on service under warranty. Now they return me the mobo with strange MAC Address 88:88:88:88:87:88, UUID all F’s and no serial number. Can i fix this with flashing my bios or i should use spi programmer to fix this problem. And if i must use spi programmer can you suggest me what model should i buy and should i buy bios chip also. Also in bios when i enable network stack WOL is greyed out and it says N/A and i can’t change that. Here is MEinfo -verbose and MEManuf -verbose files. I suppose that i can remove the bios chip on my motherboard easily because it’s socketed. I hope you can help me.
I have emailed asus and they don’t answer me till now (passed 5 days) :). I want to ask you something. Can you review this files if you have time and tell me is everything ok with ME.
I see some output that i don’t understand. It says that bios config and gbe config lock are enabled but i can configure bios. Also other security related settings are disabled. How can i configure ME. Is there official documenetation from intel for ME configuration. I tried FD44Editor and i should place serial number with 15 characters there. My serial number is 12 characters. And how to recreate UUID. I know that the last part is the mac address but i don’t know how to recreate the first 4 parts. There is a stickers for mac and serial number on the motherboard but there is not a sticker for UUID. I’m also sending you wmic query from windows about baseboard. Also i’m sending you pictures from bios for ethernet configuration and WOL is greyed out and says N/A. I hope you can point me to the wright direction to fix this issues.
One last thing. Does this spi usb programmer will work for my motherboard. And can i use this with the first programmer to not desolder teh spi chip. Also i’m sending you spi dump from my running bios on my motherboard . Best Regards.
