Use UEFI mode. Do you work GOP Driver, instead OROM.

The problem will flash modified BIOS.

im booting at uefi mode also looked at bios couldn’t see vbios version :frowning:

@ temroa
X552CL BIOS version 207
OROM VBIOS 2132, IvyBridge GOP Driver 3.0.1016
Update is possible, but there is a risk. And the problem will flash the BIOS.
But I do not advise you to do the update, in order to avoid problems.



ok i take risk how can i do that ?

Ok. It’s your decision.
Unrar the attached file. Start backup.bat. Send me the file backup.bin in PM.

okay when i run the backup.bat as administrator i got this output:

‘fptw’ is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
Press any key to continue . . .

when running as a normal user i got this error:
Error 284: Fail to load driver (PCI access for Windows).
Tool needs to run with an administrator priviledge account.

what should i do ?

@ temroa
Do you have a bootable flash drive in DOS?

yes i have also do i need to use intel’s bmp tool ?

here is my current bios:https://www.sendspace.com/file/ua0wq7

First, we need to make a backup BIOS.

Unrar on a bootable flash drive. Boot into DOS. Make a backup.

it gived me crc error when unzipping but im tried at dos and got an error i dont remember it was a big number 0000000


Archive normal. Download again.

Error 363: Invalid Chip Erase Timeout value in "fparts.txt".

edit:sonix here is the backup https://www.sendspace.com/file/kjvei0

edit:this is for you to see

Good. I attach mod. Updated OROM and GOP.
When flashing, be sure to use the option -bios, ie
"fpt -bios -f ‘mod_file’"

thank you but i did not waited you and changed bios through mmtool this is what i did

replaced device 8086,166 file with version 2170 bios and ubu tool seeing the change (but there is 2 line only 1 line is 2170) but system is still showing 2132

@ temroa
You have two OROM VBIOS, and it is desirable to update the two, Device ID 126 and 166. Use necessary mobile OROM. And be sure to make the transfer settings VBT.

"And be sure to make the transfer settings VBT" what do you mean with it ?

also flashed your rom through fpt now vbios version line is N/A


If you do not make the setting VBT, then your card will not work correctly or do not work, then there will be a "black screen".
[Guide] Transfer of specific Intel VBIOS settings by using Intels BMP tool


In UEFI mode OROM VBIOS does not work, only the GOP driver. Therefore VBIOS version is not available.

SoniX do you should me to change bios with stock one and start again ?
