GIGABYTE Modified Bios

Re: GIGABYTE Modified Bios

Yes pretty confused... or to much complicated for me
ME firmware and MEI also seems to be used by OC tuning tools, and some users had issue with BCLK when i attempted to insert lastest ME firmware directly in BIOS... Of course that just means ME firmware is necessary but not that is useful to update it .

Re: GIGABYTE Modified Bios

GA-Z77X-UD5H F15-mod (don't think the modded part is at fault here though) is weird, BCLK setting is gone and frequency down to 99.77Mhz; MEI also seems to be gone, it doesn't even show up in device manager;
So i went back to F16c-mod6, updated ME fw manually and all is fine.

Sorry virtu, your mod bios are...^^ have the same...

You must install ME driver under Windows before updating ME firmware. Did you try to install the last ME driver ?

How did you manage to install 9.5 in the first place? Z77 only supports 8.1, AFAIK.
In the screenshot you posted, the ME device is not present. It's probably on top of the window, showing as "PCI simple communication device" or something like that.

Careful not to confuse ME firmware and MEI driver... i'm using ME firmware 8.1.40.1416 with MEI driver 9.5.13.1706

Can you restore to a date prior to the problem ?
Which BIOS are you using ? Could you update your profil with complete specs ?

Oh, I see.
I gotta start a thread somewhere about the whole thing, because I still would like to know how could I use it to access PCs in the house without running around like a dick :P

So far nothing has changed compared to F16c which was great for me... same OC with my RAM still at 800MHz CAS8, i have to try XMP again (933MHz CAS9) but it may take few day to know if there an improvement of compatibility cause BSOD can appears only after 1 week...
