[Request] NVMe mod Asus Maximus II Formula BIOS

BIOS/UEFI Modding BIOS Modding Requests

Hello everyone, I am looking to see if anyone has a bios mod for my old motherboard I have here. I remember I downloaded a xeon microcode rom for it to run a xeon cpu on it and I have that file. I was wondering if possible if anyone can help me or point me in the right direction to mod it to allow nvme ssd if at all possible. I tried looking through and found that someone had success with this motherboard according to Fernando’s list but not able to find where it was actually posted.

Here is the link to the motherboard that I can find. MAXIMUS II FORMULA - Support

I have also attached below the modded bios rom file that I used to allow the xeon cpu. Let me know if you need anything else that can help get this done thanks!

Why don’t you try it yourself?
Since your mainboard doesn’t support booting in UEFI mode, these are your options:
a) Buy and insert a Samsung 950 Pro SSD
b) Insert a customized NVMe Option ROM into the BIOS (look into >this< thread)
c) Use an external bootloader (look >here< or >here<)
Good luck!
