Try flashing the updated file and report back, on the NVMe issue make sure CSM (Compatibility Support Mode) in the bios is disabled and all your drives are configured GPT (Gui Partition Table)
Hi, @hancor thank you for the response. Sorry for the false alarm but sleep problem is cause by my GTX 660 GPU… Previously my father was using this computer and I wasn’t aware of this problem
Anyway thanks for updated bios. I flashed it already and everything works fine
NVMe disk is visible as boot device. I had to disable my HDD as boot devices and now NVMe is visible as only boot device. After that I have to reformat my HDD’s as GPT.
@hancor : When i update to the modded bios, of the ram work at 1333 and i when i try to configure it to work at 2400 Mh (throught Manual setting or XMP) it change nothing. When i go back to official bios - 2400 mhz works again.
I looked at neighboring topics (z87 bios modded) and many have the same problem. Could you fix it?
@hancor - Did you do the first one with UEFITool, or UBU? If UBU, hard to say which was used, you may need to make 2 for them to test, both manual one MMTool and one UEFITool 25.0
Ohh, well that does not help I guess, since I don’t know which one they are complaining does not work with memory speed/NVME Memory speed issue may not be due to NVME insert, are you/they sure? It may be due to microcode update issue, padding added/removed or FIT, or other edits in DXE volume add/remove padding.
Maybe best for you to test, if you have this board, or make them test stock BIOS and only NVME insert MMTool and UEFITool by itself, see which works, and which is OK or not with memory speeds. Then that would rule out NVME insert as issue, then rest can be checked later after UBU edit on top of that. Sorry, I am not trying to add to the mess pile here, was only trying to help
Python is not used to edit microcodes, only to check and show you them, it’s MC Extractor. Actual microcode edit/replace is still done with MMTool or UEFIReplace
@hancor I’ve flashed with your provided modified bios update, but unfortunately nvme doesn’t appear to be showing in the bios, it shows in windows and I created a gpt partition, just doesn’t show in boot options in the bios.
I also tried disabling CSM however my GPU doesn’t work without it & so the bios auto enables it on boot.
Okay the problem is not the bios, it is your graphics card…as in probably "ancient". NVMe requires using the .efi extensions rather than the older .rom extensions. A newer graphics card will rectify this, should you be willing to buy an NVMe ssd and adapter to extend the life of your computer platform.
If you did get graphics card, NVMe ssd, and NVMe adapter, naturally they could all migrate to a newer platform when you choose to do a full computer upgrade.
