Hi!
I've made the same mistake in both computers I've got in home, I've updated it's bios with latest one uploaded on website and those BIOS are for 3rd Generation and I've got 2nd Generation, my specs are this:
Asrock P67 Extreme 6 + i5 2500K
Asrock H61iCafe + i3 2120
Both, after update, i've experimented some extrange behaviour:
- P67 sometimes stucks on boot, have to powerdown and start again.
- H61 integrated GPU dissapear from UEFI settings and its not working anymore.
I've made some research on the internet and more people with 2nd Gen of intel CPU with newer bios that supports 3rd gen are having some problems, because intel ME firmware update does some extrange things with older CPU's.
I cannot flash older BIOS, well, yes I can, but Intel ME firmware will not downgrade and more bugs are expected, so... what can I do? I'm thinking about two posibilities:
- Requesting 2 new BIOS chips with older versions and change them. Will work?
- In another post from whis forum, a mate is talking about how to change Intel ME firmware, is this aplicable for my situation?
Thanks you all mates, I'm very angry with this.
