Hi all,
I was able to setup Win10 on NVMe (PCI adapter card) via USB boot (DUET). It is working. But if someone can help me, it would be nice to have an Bios setup for this.
My current Bios version is F8f (970AUD3.F8f). There is no UEFI boot possible.
Tanks in Adavnce!

This is not possible, this is legacy AWARD bios type. Only possible in revision 3.0 of this model.
oh, what a pitty, didn’t want to buy new board etc. 
Thx for answer
I’m trying to boot an nvme sdd with windows 11 cloned into it from an hdd that is already installed in the system. HDD with windows 11 seems to work fine on the motherboard (GA-970A-UD3 (rev. 1.1)), and the nvme that is attached through a pcie adapter is read perfectly fine as storage.
The motherboard is already at f8f bios version which doesn’t have natural uefi support, and doesn’t seem to be possible to be modded to allow uefi from what I’ve read.
I’ve attempted to use clover bootloader on a bootable usb but for whatever reason, I’m unable to actually get it too boot to the clover menu. It just either gets stuck at “Loading Operating System…” or there’s a brief 6 that flashes then gets stuck on a black screen with a - at the top right that doesn’t blink.
I’ve also attempted the DUET+refind version and I can boot to a menu but I can’t seem to proceed. I don’t think it sees my ssd during this time.
I’ve also accidentally left both a clover usb and a DUET+refind usb on the system and that seemed to have allowed clover to get to the menu but it does not seem to seem to see the nvme still.
I feel like there’s something in my BIOS that’s stopping me from progressing but I’m not entirely sure.

Welcome to the Win-Raid Forum!
Since there is already a thread about a rather similar topic, I have merged your help request with it.
As you already know, there is no AMI UEFI BIOS version available for your mainboard.
Nevertheless it may be possible to boot with your non-UEFI system in LEGACY mode directly off an NVMe SSD. >Here< you can find a guide how to manage it.
Good luck!
By the way: If you are going to change the boot device, it is always a good idea to do a fresh install of the desired Operating System and not to use a cloned OS Image.
The OS was technically a fresh install in the same system just on an hdd. But I guess that means zilch transfering it over an sdd and changing boot. I’ll look into installing it with clover.
The direct boot option is a little scary at my level but I’ll read more into it, thanks.
@Nonimo
It is possible to customize the boot partition by a specific tool named EasyBCD.
Another possible way for this is by crossflashing it with Rev 3.0 bios, the board is a bit similiar seeing from the physical looks, might work or might not work. You can use a CH341A or Flashrom/Flashprog for it.
I have compiled flashprog v1.5 last month (you can see it here), and maybe you can test it to dump your own bios before writing the rev 3.0 bios.
