Non-existent hardware appears in Device Manager. I am modifying the bios of the original motherboard. Who can help me to get this working or have some Guides for me that i haven´t found at this time ? Last i tried Flashrom 1.2 with programmer “internal”įREG0: Flash Descriptor Region (0x00000000 - 0x00000fff) is read onlyįREG2: Management Engine Region (0x00003000 - 0x002fffff) is read onlyĮnabling Hardware Sequencing because some important OPCODE is lockedįound programmer Flash Chip “Opaque Flash Chip” CAP File (as in Guide), it flashed the Bios 3101 but without Modifications. Then I tried Asus AI Suite and replaced the. Same if I first make a Bios dump of original Bios with “ftp -d backup.bin”, when i wan´t to reflash this with “ftp -bios -f backup.bin” Same Error 167 Next i tried AFUDOS this says 22 - Error Problem allocating memory.įTP (DOS) & FTPW says this Error 167 Protected Range Registers are set by Bios, preventing Flash access. This Asus Mainboard have no Bios Flashback so it´s more complicatedįlash from UEFI Bios itself: Says Can´t Flash this Bios File Then I have tried to Flash it in several ways: (Bios LOCK 0xBC9 = 0x00 i set it to 0x00) TUF-H370-PRO-GAMING-ASUS-3101.zip (8.5 MB)Ĭleared all Keys in Secure Boot and set System to “Other OS” Secure Boot: shows deactivatedįirst i looked for locked Bios with USB Stick and Shell.EFI with GRUB but it´s unlocked as standard Now the use of CAP files is not only for motherboards with USB BFB feature, others dont have it, so for those the internal Asus EZ Flash cant use these “broken” mod cap files, this is where we need to extract and later replace the bios region as mod, to the original CAP file.Need some help with this Asus TUF H370 Pro Gaming Bios, i have modded this Bios but can´t Flash it.įirst of all here is the Original Bios File: This happens more on AMI Aptio V core bioses, yours a IV. Indeed some “leaked” versions of the MM tool/AMIBCP tool can break the signature. So for simple insertion of NVMe DXE, the USB BFB feature using CAP is enough and the most secure/successful. The Asus CAP files will update the bios region (Only one usually) and will preserve the board original data as DMI, MAC etc… Its safe, if your modding an Asus bios update CAP file and you’re gonna use it ONLY in a motherboard with USB BFB feature, that the P8Z77-M has it. precisely when ROM extraction/replacment is needed and when it is not. The current explaination is not very clear on this point, e.g. Thank may I suggest to consider MeatWar’s post to be added to the main/first post. I will do it ether way, I just wanted to ask what is safe and what is not. It would really be a PITA to gain access to the USB BFB physical button on the motherboard.īut I digress. My case is not easily accessible, it’s wall mounted (yes really), and cramped with cards and fans. And in that case I suppose it’s also safe to flash that same MMtool modded CAP with AI Suite method? I’d rather use that for flashing.Sometimes signature can be broken, but the bios content itself should be fine ( barring possible problems with added or missing “padding” sections, which should be checked for in contents).Asus CAP bios modded with MMtool is safe to flash with usb bios flashback feature.Thanks I wrongly thought that even with the USB BFB the ROM extraction/replacement is a must do in all ASUS cases. This flashing with ASUS AI Suite seems easiest, and it skips several steps - which are quite confusing even after so much reading (the extraction of the body of the bios, etc). Shouldn’t this be the default (and easiest) option for flashing Asus *.CAP bioses - or am I missing something? I was reading and rereading the modding/flashing guides for several days now, and as I understand the main problem with the Asus *.CAP files is the security protection/verification. I’d rather skip this if the option of flashing the unverifiable *.CAP file is possible (and safe) with ASUS AI Suite. If I understand it well, the guide states that I should proceed with the extraction of the *.ROM from the original *.CAP file, and than mod that with the UEFITool to add the NvmExpressDxe_5.ffs My question: Is it safe to flash this modded *.CAP file with ASUS AI Suite (as described in the flashing guide)? The resulting *.CAP file is of course not passing the security verification in EZFlash and in Asus BUPDATER_130 (DOS flasher). I have very carefully compared the original and the modded bios for differences in “paddings” with UEFITool.I have modded the latest bios for the board with MMTool and added the NvmExpressDxe_5.ffs.I am trying to get NVMe Support on my ASUS p8z77-m. Hello, my thanks for the effort of writing and maintaining this guide and the forum in general.
