Hi Gabriel! The modified BIOS works perfectly. However, I no longer boot from that M.2 drive; instead, I use it as a secondary drive, using a SATA SSD for the operating system. I’ve used Windows 11 and Windows Server, and in both cases, they boot normally and can access the M.2 drive, which is housed in a PCI-e to M.2 adapter. I hope this information is helpful! Cheers!

Sorry for the english translation. I had to do it because forum rules.

Me alegro mucho por contestar ! Es un ordenador viejo i quiero poner el ssd con adaptor m2 ! Un saludo desde Rumania Bucarest tio !!! Bon dia!
Una pregunta más: ¿el archivo lo descomprimo y lo copio en una memoria USB?

Enter the BIOS, then press F8 (see image).
Yes, the new BIOS version must be saved to a USB drive, and you’ll be able to view it from the Q-Flash screen.
If you have a UPS, it’s best to use it.
