    Can anyone help with my GA-Z68XP-UD3P (rev 1.3)? I am still status quo waiting for someone with more brains than me to reply to my previous post.

    (Please see previous post one page back, page 429, 4th from the end)

        Thanks for the info Stasio. I did this previously with version 1.07x and added the TRIM support and the OROM for 12.x. Is this all I need? I don't need microcode updates, Gigabyte took care of that, but I'm unsure if I need any other options. As long as that is all I need, then I'll give it a try (my board has dual BIOS in case of Primary corruption, so I guess I don't have much to lose, just being overly cautious).

            So, do I have to update EVERY component into my BIOS, or am I fine with adding TRIM and the OROM? Cause I've already made one with just those changes, is that all I need to do, or do I have to rewrite the WHOLE BIOS with all the features available in UBU? I am confused, maybe I'm not being understood or I've missed something along the way... I really don't want to jack my system up, but I don't mind doing the work myself, I just need a little direction that I've done what I need to OR if I have missed something...

            From my first post, pertinent info in red I believe:

            So, I have a GA-Z68XP-UD3P, U1g, the latest from Gigabyte's site.

            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?

            Please, Stasio or anyone that has experience modding BIOS files??

            • Re: GIGABYTE Modified Bios failure Z87X Ud5h

              Hi,

              I had a hiccup trying to install the Z87X-UD5H-F10 mod bios I found on this thread. The thing is I updated the intel raid roms using mmtool 4.5 from 13.2 to 13.5.0.2164 and got IO disk errors immediately after in Windows 7 64. Prior to that I was running the F9 release bios. Interesting points are that I have multi boot setup with Win 8.1 on a Samsung 850 which suffered no ill effects but my Win 7 64 on my Samsung 830 couldn't handle it. Had errors with Windows Update, errors installing the latest RST 13.6 drivers, etc. My separate raid - 0 array seemed ok as I use it as a steam data drive. May have had errors from a separate 600gb raptor drive as well. Anyhow thanks to dual bios was able to go back to F9 by pulling a switch and the errors in Win 7 are gone. I even set the same bios settings on both which included xmp memory setting and raid. Didn't clear cmos though on the F10 mod bios install though. Previously was on 12.6 and a 12.X RST. Anyone have any idea what could have happened?

              Thanks

                The problem is ....your BIOS has limited space...

                        I updated the GA-EP45-UD3R beta F13e BIOS a few months back for my own use. I wanted to use a particular revision of the Intel RAID OROM and drivers, and couldn't find what I needed. Figured while I did that I'd update to the latest RealTek and JMicron I could find as well. It flashed fine on my Rev 1.1 board, and everything seems to work. But use at your own risk, and all that.

                        GA-EP45-UD3R BIOS version: F13e (beta)
                        Intel RAID ROM - 11.2.0.1527 (for use with driver version 11.2.0.1006, according to Intel)
                        RealTek LAN - 2.60

                          Hi to all.

                          Is there a moded bios for Z97x-UD5H BLK?

                          I,m using right now F6, because the last beta bios (F7g) was too "buggy".

                          Many thanks.

                          Cheers
