    THANK YOU!!! Thank you sooooo much for your help, I truly really appreciate this
    I've been banging my head against a wall for almost a week, and pulled out half my hair, without success!
    I am for ever in debt to you sir :)

    Would you mind me asking how you did this mod?!
    I'm trying to learn a bit more about this...if that is not too much trouble, would you mind giving me some tips to what tools to use and how to set up the modding process in this case?
    Using cbrom32_198.exe I noticed that you successfully had the new ICHRAID.BIN module in the correct place/order in the BIOS image, something I never managed to accomplish at all :)

    How did you do that?!

    Again, thank you a million times!

    Best Regards,

    You're Welcome.
    I used CBRom 1.15 run in a Command Prompt (run as Administrator).
    Certain Versions of CBRom work better than others for certain BIOS.
    You need to research which version works best for a particular MB/BIOS.
    CBRom 1.98 has been known to corrupt the BIOS, I stay away from that version for x58 BIOS Mods.

    I am in NO way affiliated with Gigabyte.
    If you use a BIOS I Modified, you do so at your own Risk and Assume Full Responsibilty !

        Aha, CBRom 1.15!
        Many thx for that tips, now that I have a sure thing when it comes to using the right tool, I'll get on it and will proceed to some more testing right away, thank you :)

        Just wanted to add that I've now confirmed with TRIM-check tool that TRIM is definitely being passed along to my RAID-0 array! I didn't think that was possible really 3 weeks ago!
        Am a very happy man! Thank you to CPL0 for making the .bin mod, Fernanodo for offering these mods and a lot of great info at win-raid.com, thx to lordkag also at win-raid for offering his help and to NoJuan999 for making this possible for me, you guys r0ck :)

        My issue has been solved!

                If you're are ok with the actual you've installed, you can keep it and upgrade when you 'll make a fresh OS install.

                Plus, each time new OROMS are published, i can't find some changelog.

                      WARNING, NOOB ALERT!!!

                      OK, Hi all, thanks for this forum. How rockin! This is my first post cause I need a couple answers, maybe some help (not psychiatric).

                      So, I have a GA-Z68XP-UD3P, U1g I believe *CONFIRMRD BY ME*, whatever the latest from Gigabyte's site is (I can look it up if need be on a reboot).

                      There doesn't seem to be a modded BIOS for it here? I have been thru searches, pages of posts, etc etc, therefore:

                      Can someone mod the latest BIOS for my board? All I care about is running 2 gorgeous Samsung 830 256GB SSDs in RAID 0 with TRIM (mainly cause I have no idea what all the other options are for like Marvell, VGA, haha). I have a Core i5-2500k and dual 5770s and a 2TB Black Data drive so I don't *think* I need to worry about CPU microcodes or VGA stuff, as my system has been running awesome minus the second SSD for a year and a half or so. I just want/need more room on my primary drive for the OS and some programs I want to utilize the SSD speed (i.e. Maya, those fun kinds).
                      I modded my own, using UBU 1077, did 'T' for the TRIM insert with the latest 12.x Intel OROM. But I'm rather shy to pull the trigger and flash without a nod that that's ok, or have someone make one for me?

                      My head is swimming with all I've been reading, so thanks to everyone who has posted and utterly confused me! :)

                          Hi,
                          yes I reported your case,but the best things if YOU can report also to GB Technical support.
                          How about F16...try and report to same source.
                          They need always more info......and I don't like to be postman...

                            Hi,

                            I'm new to this comunity. I've looked up for a modded bios for my MB (found one), but i'd like to know if the USB 3.0 issue for the U1d UEFI Bios version for my board (GA-P67A-UD3-B3 rev 1.1) has been solved. I've already reportted this issue to GB but no luck, has been 2 years since last uefi bios update (current U1d).

                            For the ones that don't know what this issue is, the problem is that USB 3.0 doesn't works, no voltage present at all. If i go back to F9 Bios (legacy) USB 3.0 works as supposed to do.

                            Hope you could help me with this issue, if not, well, nothing more to stay on F9 Bios.

                              Anyone know what version of Memory Reference Code (MRC) version does this firmware have?
