Hello!

Could someone please mod the BIOS of GA-Z87-HD3 ATX mainboard from Gigabyte to allow NVMe booting? I’d be really grateful.

The latest native BIOS is version F4 from 2014.

Thanks in advance! Hope that someone still deals with those “senior” devices…

Only F6/7/8 on page product, so u want the latest F8 or the F4, if F4 provide file/dump.

EDIT 29-06-2021: Bios MOD NVMe only, version F8, Q-Flash primary or EFIflash as alternative. Never OS dependent operation.

NOTE: System MUST be flashed to same version F8 using Gigabyte regular update before the mod.

As usually, provided bios mod files and its use, are USER OWN risk only. Insure the knowledge of a system recovery in a fail operation.

Please do report back for user future guidance.

Working, thanx!
I updated my Bios to F8 first, then to your mod.
I am using this cheap Amazon PCIe card: ICY BOX IB-PCI215M2-HSL PCI Express x4.
Note: I had to explicitely set the PCIe speed to “×4” in the Bios, because the default “auto” lead to the slower “×1” speed (while the F8 frirmware was giving full speed for the auto option)
Cheers!
