[Request] HPET mod BIOS F16b for Gigabyte Z370 Aorus Ultra Gaming

Hello,

This is my very first post here. Would someone please help me by modding and disabling the HPET (that is not being displayed in the Chipset page) on the latest version of the bios, F16b?

I got a PM by @BDMaster , sorry mate I just don’t have enough privilege to reply direct to you. The link for the tool you sent me is broken, it seems that the file is not available anymore.
I also tried the steps you sent me to check backdoor bugs in my BIOS and I was not able to discover any, as the steps does not replicate 1:1 with the current available settings in my BIOS.

Thanks for reaching out though and sorry for not being able to reply directly to you.

Try this tool package to make a unlocked bios for your board.
After all steps you did ,check if you’re able to find “High Precision Timer” under Peripherals tab.


Hey @genius239 , thanks for your reply.

I tried to dump the bios but got the following error:
Error 63: Unknown or unsupported hardware platform. HW: Intel(R) Kaby Lake Chipset. Supported HW: Cannonlake Platform.

Thanks @genius239 that worked like a charm. Thank you very much!

@lzanchin

You’re welcome !
Could you capture screenshots to confirm the mod is work fine?
I wanna fix the tool package then share it again ,so i need know the actual condition.



Screenshots from the BIOS pages?
I noticed that the page selector at the top is a bit buggy, you actually have more pages than the navigation bar tells, but you can navigate fine with the kb arrows.

@lzanchin

Did you mean that it will stuck on M.I.T tab?
If yes ,download this to replace original then try again.



No, it’s not stuck in a single TAB. I can navigate between TABS but there are more pages (left and right) than actual tabs and then eventually you’re not in the page respective to the selected TAB, if that makes sense?

I will try to take some pictures and upload here to ilustrate.

Still hope you use new file from#9 to replace original then do again ,i think it should solve this issue.
