Hi
I would like to Patch Bios ECS Elite Group G41T-M7 REV:1.0 in order to Support NVME SDD M.2 PCIe (Booting).
to use with PCIe adapter
Western Digital WD_Black SN750 NVMe SSD
Samsung 970 EVO Plus Series - PCIe NVMe - M.2 Internal SSD
Thank a lot.

I don’t think that’s doable : only UEFI bioses support that, and I guess is not the case on a G41. If you want nvme boot on it only the Clover method is available to you. Only the Samsung 950 PRO is natively bootable on legacy bios systems due to an op-rom that makes visible to the bios as a storage device allowing you to install OS. However with the pcie x4 2.0 you will be limited to 1.5 GB/s up or down. Speaking from experience. I recently acquired a Toshiba XG6 and want to do the Clover thing myself onto an Optiplex 790.
@salvador : Welcome to the Win-RAID Forum!
As MARSTIG has already posted - it is impossible to get full NVMe support for your old system with an Intel ICH7 Southbridge by a BIOS modification.
You will be able to get the OS installed onto your WD NVMe SSD, but the boot sector has to be outside of it.
Good luck!

P.S.: Since your problem has nothing to do with the in-use NVMe driver, I have moved your request into the Sub-Forum named "NVMe Support for old Systems".
Thank you very much.
