Re: GIGABYTE Modified Bios

@virtualfred,
so what exactly do you want to know, i mean you moddest Bios and what is your question, see in my mod-bios, switch cpu patch modul complete, your me firmware are wrong, to extract data from my mod-bios and your mod... It will work out all right.

I have many things to learn from Stasio, Fernando, JZ, NoJuan999, μcode and many others... I am much more interested in your approach rather than copy / paste chunks of bits, and I do not think I can guess what you did just comparing BIOS ... but I look upon it, thank you.

So I did, I downloaded your modified BIOS (GA-Z77X-UD5H BIOS F16 mod2 (rev1.0 and 1.1)) and flashed it. You may want to test to downgrade to 8.1.30.1350 on your computer, check it with Meinfo, then upgrade with your mod and then check again with Meinfo...
EDIT: No YOU where right. The Mod Bios at Post 2, stated to be your mod is really not the same as the one you posted here. When I flash the one you point to the ME Firmware really is updated!

I am sorry for the missunderstanding. I hope the Moderator will put the right file at post 2 to avoid more misstakes.

I am not allowed to touch a bit of Morpheus67's bios, just do a zip by adding the usual text file. "mod" is mine while "mod2" is by morpheus67.

Re: GIGABYTE Modified Bios

done, flash F16c beta orig. with me 8.1.30, meinfo = 8.1.30, flash F16 final with mod, meinfo = 8.1.40, it's OK, what is your problem ? do you make a joke or what, hahaha

No, but a bit confused. Se the explanation here.

Thank you for being persistent, and checking. You seemed so sure so I also tested again this time downloading directly from your link. And you actually made it. Please forgive me and I hope I can put out the fire with a

I checked it 2 times and you can compare these 2 links yourself with HxD editor : the BIOS mod2 in OP and the BIOS from morpheus67's link are strictly identical.
Also i tried this mod this afternoon and it works perfectly for me .

Re: GIGABYTE Modified Bios

Yes it's different : GBe is the Intel LAN firmware while Intel Boot Agent is a ROM... Amurtigress wrote a How To for GBe update , it's works perfectly and don't revert back to 1.3 after BIOS flashing !

Ok thank you,

Iit like is too complicate to do for me this time.. ;)

Re: GIGABYTE Modified Bios

Thanks, hosted here and added on OP

Could you share your work with us please ?

So, I'm a bit confused.

I have z77xud5h_mod6.16c.

Are we going back in versions?

Is this Mod version better than 16C Mod 6?

Re: GIGABYTE Modified Bios

^How is going back...?
F16 is highest possible version till today.....

Re: GIGABYTE Modified Bios

Now we (Well ME!) just require F16 mod3 with updated ME Firmware AND the modded firmware graphic

Yes it is confusing... a BIOS with a number and a letter is a beta BIOS, BIOS which only have a number is a final one... so after a beta periode, GB just delete the letter to identify the stable release .

Now we (Well ME!) just require F16 mod3 with updated ME Firmware AND the modded firmware graphic

Modded firmware graphic ? What else do you want ?

Re: GIGABYTE Modified Bios

So the conclusion I come to, and I am not happy about it, is I clicked the wrong link and downloaded Mod 1.
I really messed it up this time and one would think that I should not try doing Bios-upgrades if I can’t click as on a webpage. I will go to sleep now and hope that tomorrow will be a day with fewer mistakes.
Sorry virtualfred and morpheus67!

No problem, morpheus67 keeps the original name for his modded BIOS (Z77XUD5H.F16), so it was easy to confuse.
It's a bit my fault too because wanted to keep the two links the time to know if everything was okay, it is now corrected as morpheus67's one works very well .

Re: GIGABYTE Modified Bios

I haven't figured out what yet but GA-Z77X-UD5H F16c mod7 (rev1.0 and 1.1) does something funky to my system where it slows the boot into the OS by about 30 seconds and the graphics are really sluggish once booted.

I have now moved to GA-Z77X-UD5H F16c mod6 and things are normal again but does doing this also revert the ME firmware back to 8.1.30.1350?

It will be interesting to see if this new BIOS inc ME Firmware also causes this problem I had when testing F16c Mod7, once I can turn off I am going to try it...
