Ket,
I went through the bios settings and made sure that the SSD was the 1st boot device and disabled all others. The computer still reacted the same; boot failure on initial start up, and then I save and exit with no bios changes to start Win 7. I flashed back to F22 and the problem disappeared. Not sure that I gained anything with F23 performance wise. My CPU is a 1st gen 1700 with a mild overclock. All I care for is a stable build with some minor tweaks. Just figured that the new bios might add a bit of stability.
On another note, I do notice that the USB devices connected seem to have a bit of lag to them. HPET has been disabled in the OS and bios, so not sure if it has helped yet. Not enough time to check the latency.
Thanks,
MAK
Any1 knows how to disable HPET in rom file? Getting sick of i cant disable it in bios even though the option is there. Asrock still made it auto enabled. 
Cheers the newb
Windows10 doesnt use HPET it has its own timer management, its for virtual machines, its highly unlikely gigabyte motherboards even have the setting now.
Check in device manager under hidden devices, it should say "no drivers loaded for this device" if it has just disable in device manager
run this command from an elevated command prompt:
bcdedit /deletevalue useplatformclock
then reboot the machine
HPET is used by windows 10 for certain apps, and will enable when windows 10 "calls" for the timer to get used? If im not mistaken. Never the less is it possible for me to edit my bios rom file to disable HPET indstead of auto enable? 
I wrote to asrock, they said they enabled it on all boards because amd told them toâŚ
Yea i wouldnt bother, hpet is only called for by virtual machines now, windows 10 has absolutely no use for it starting with windows 8, it has 2 of its own much faster timer generators built right in, did you check in the device manager like i said?
Its always enabled but never used unless specifically needed (very very rare)
Its only a compatibility feature for old software i wouldnt bother messing
Yeah i did and it is there. I really need it disabled. My mouse feels like its been dragging through horseshit when im trying to aim. We are allot of cs go players who need this turned off. Try google it mate. How do i do it? I used UBU_v1_69_17_2 and used search on HPET and found 3 things in there. How do i change them to disable? :)!
I really insist on changing it. Please help if you know how to mate! Its my first time doing this and im so excited! My mobo is Asrock Fatalt1ty B450 Gaming k4. Bios version p1.80.
bcdedit /deletevalue useplatformclock
bcdedit /set disabledynamictick yes
From elevated command prompt, then restart
bcdedit /enum
and you will see a list, in the list u should see useplatformclock Yes or No
if it is set to NO it means its disabled in windows and if its YES its enabled in windows
Also to get the âpress F8 to enter safemodeâ back like in windows 7 enter this here:
https://www.thewindowsclub.com/safe-mode-in-windows-8
On my board its already disabled in windows10 mode:
So basically from windows whether its enabled in the bios or not:
to enable HPET - bcdedit /set useplatformclock true
to disable HPET - bcdedit /deletevalue useplatformclock
Hey @ket @Lost_N_BIOS any idea why AMIBCP wonât read x470 gaming 7bwifi bios file? Wanted to see if there was an hidden pob scalar and it wonât read
NVM was using wrong version. Ty anyway
2nd edit: canât flash the bios with the unhidden options. Any idea why? And workaround to it?
@Jman you need to disable the integrity check Q-Flash does with a hex editor, alternatively just flash from DOS with the modded tool on the first page.
@ket ty for the quick response . I tried with the dos method. It doesnât detects afuefix. Only boot.efi is usable via shell. Out of date tool? Dunno I reformated the usb stick and dropped all files into it again and still same thing happens. Only boot.efi is usable. Bios are a pain to us common mortals 
flashing rn@Jman - Youâre welcome! That sorted out Qflash for you correct? Sometimes byte it not there to change, already FF or 00, usually then itâs Qflash usable already though so you wouldnât be looking for a fix 
I always check this and change if found, before uploading any mod BIOS for users, so that is how I see it sometimes already FF / 00
@Lost_N_BIOS yes it worked. Its not on the same header but done a search for the beginning of the string of text that you highlighted and managed to find the byte. Changed it and flashed no problem. Shame that theres not many settings hidden that actually do something when unhidden. Ty anyways
@Jman - $BDR will show you the way any time, few rows under that is where you find (Circled in red in the image). So you were able to unhide your settings you wanted, and they just didnât help, or could you never see them in BIOS? If you still need help making something visible I can probably help.
@Lost_N_BIOS sorry for the late reply. yes thatâs the way I got to it. So i managed to unhide turbo Boost ratio and memory clear. Disabled spread Spectrum by default and set the xfr2 enable as optimal and failsafe. Kinda annoying to reset CMOS and have to enable it every time. The settings that I really wanted the most ainât editable under AMIBCP. So I think that Iâll probably try to replace CBS options module with the one from x370 gaming k5 f22 bios. That has straight manual pob limits exposed. Hopefully I wonât brick the main bios or else gigabyte will have to send me a spare chip
BTW spread Spectrum made a great diference on the timings on my kit. Had it 14 14 15 14 34 so it stayed stable. Now itâs running @ 3400 14 14 14 14 28 with fast preset subtimings from Dram Calculator. Works like a charm now. 3600 mhz still kinda iffy. Probably because my IC ainât golden. But managed to run xfr2 with -0.125mv offset stable with power saving options off. Or -0.1125mv with power saving on. That resultâs in 4.125-4.175ghz all core boost under synthetic load and up to 4.275ghz all cores while gaming @at max peak voltage of 1.428v.
Ordered an 360mm rad to replace my 240mm one canât wait to see the difference
A 3x120mm rad from a 2x120 will make no difference at all with ryzen, these cpus run upto 4.1ghz on the stock coolers. my 2700x on a 240 or 360 rad has a 1celcius difference no joke. im at 4.3ghz at 1.395v max 73c with IBT and 12000mb runs
Another note: what the hell have gigabyte done to the new rgb fusion app? wow its bad.
The one I have is aluminium ( LEPA EXLLUSION 240MM AIO ) @POE_UK and have no idea. I donât use the RGB. Is at red on bios fusion settings
