Thank you very much RU-vid, thank you very much for your video, the explanation is very detailed, and reliable download links are provided for various required programs. My computer knowledge is very limited, but after watching your video, I successfully upgraded
cuando tengo que abrir el archivo de la bios de la placa me sale un error que dice lo siguiente: UEFI volumes not found, alguien sabe que puedo hacer, tengo una placa asus p6t se, que alguien me ayude por favor
This guide worked perfectly for me ASUS RAMPAGE IV EXTREME. Cloned my smaller SSD, expanded to nvme using Acronis. Didn't even need to reinstall windows, nvme drive showed up after following procedure + reboot after setting UFEI @ CSM and could boot from after that first time. Amazing!
not sure what is harder, going through all this or just buying a newer MB which already has the bios with M.2 already flashed on it.. or perhaps buying a bios which has it flashed and replacing the bios chip..
Heads up: This is a long and useful comment. First and foremost, thanks to @Enroot, who directed me to the right track overall to flash my Bios. This video has been of tremendous help amongst all those I have seen before. This comment is about how I successfully flashed my bios on the Asus Z87-A Motherboard. However, as from installing “Asus Ai Suite,” things get more complex. This is what I learned during this 34-hour process. It took me approximately 34 hours, equating to 2 workdays after work time + a whole Saturday in front of the machine. 1 - Read your manual and ensure that your motherboard is NVMe adapter capable and supports NVMe drives. If possible, switch to a Samsung 950 SSD pro (which has native UEFI boot support) or buy a SATA-NVMe adapter to avoid tweaking your bios. 2 - Ensure that your NVMe can at least be used as a storage disk on your computer (which 99% of motherboards allow). 3 - Use the NVMe Clover Bootloader route: This allows you to boot from your NVMe without tweaking your BIOS. The only inconveniences are the additional selection screen and boot time (which isn't much on a gaming motherboard). 4* - Make a backup of your important files, deactivate your software programs, and be ready to reinstall Windows in your NVMe. There is a possibility that your motherboard (with PCI-Express rightly configured under the CSM menu) boots from your NVMe. For some reason, some motherboards require you to reinstall Windows on NVMe while plugged in them to be able read them. * = This is a step you should take if you're ready to re-install your NVMe and find out if you need not tweak your Bios before your motherboard boots from it. Otherwise, proceed with the Bios tweaking as in the video. Now, with that being said, The steps in this video are motherboard model-specific, especially the BIOS, the flashing methods, and the Asus Ai Suite installation method. For my Asus Z87--A motherboard, I didn't use the same Bios. This lead to a rabbit hole of how to properly make it work. The things to be aware of are: Not all his links are updated, and this is because the domain of the broken links websites changed. A - This can be a long process, leading to quite some research. B - Ensure you're using the right Bios. The easiest way to find your Bios is through Asus' support drivers & manuals webpage. Installing the Asus Ai Suite: C - Not all motherboards use the same Asus Ai Suite. The one taken in charge by your motherboard is explicitly stated in its manual or on your motherboard's Asus support webpage. You may need to select a different Windows OS version to find a suitable Asus Ai Suite. For instance, for the motherboard Asus Z87-A, you have to switch to Windows 8.1 and then select “Expand All” to find it under the utilities section. Afterward, FOR MY CASE, installing that Windows 8.1 version in Windows 11 prompted countless headaches such as “Can't access AsIO.dll !! (2)”, Can't access AsIO.dll !! (5) or “Asus Ai 3 suite access violation module BiosUp.dll”. At times, the program won't boot up. I made it so far as to launch it on Windows 11, and when I selected my bios, it sprung the DLL errors. So, for anyone who would like to try to make it work if they encounter this: *** Start by uninstalling the Ai Suite using a free deep uninstaller program such as Revo Uninstaller or Bulk Crap Installer. Do not restart when prompted by Ai Suite's uninstaller. Instead, purge everything first. Uninstalling order: * Uninstall using Revo Uninstaller or Bulk Crap Uninstaller. * Sweep remaining files with a deep search from the uninstaller. * Restart your computer in Safe mode and Manually navigate to the Uninstalled programs files found in the “Program,” “Programs (x86),” and “AppData (hidden file)” directories of your computer and delete all that is related to the program. * Upon normal reboot, research, download, and launch Asus Ai Suite 1,2 or 3 Cleaner Tool, distributed by Asus. *** Upon final reboot, proceed with the installation in this order: * First, search and install the Asus Crate Armor (with default installation settings). This will load up necessary DLL files in the systems that Asus Ai Suite will require. * Second, install Asus Ai Suite (your motherboard's supported version), with all items selected. * Third, continue with the above video's Ai Suite EZ Update technique. On the Ai Suite 3, the menu is located either on the left side or in the top-right corner of the interface, next to the close buttons. Both are hidden behind buttons (look around). After this, if it doesn't boot, ensure that the following services are set to “Automatic:” To get there, type “Win key + R” then type “services.msc”. - AsusFanControlService, - asComSvc, - AsusCertService. Should it still not work, you might consider installing the appropriate Windows version indicated by Asus on your motherboard's support page. To summarize, the Asus Motherboard Z87-A, only supported Ai Suite 3 version 1.00.56, intended for Windows 8.1. So, I ended up installing Windows 8.1 and restarting the process. Ai Suite didn't give me errors, and I could Flash My Bios. Still, I had to reinstall my drive for the UEFI boot sector to be detected by my motherboard. So, this is my contribution. I hope it helps. P.S.: Links are prohibited by RU-vid in the comment section; sorry for that. A few minutes and focus tasking is enough to find those listed tools.
Merciiii!! Grâce à cette vidéo, j’ai économisé 300 euros de remplacement de machine. Génial 😊 Note to self: never ignore the descaling button again!!!!
Worked on my Asus P8Z68-V PRO i followed the tutorial from win-raid, checked the pad-files and all worked fine, thanks so much for sharing such a good content!
(heavy french accent)..."and now lets see if I bricked my motherboard" LOL. Never thought I'd hear that from a French woman after modding her bios to boot from an nvme drive via pcie adapter on a 2012 motherboard. Same one I've got.
Thank you so much for this video! Loved the bycicle break cord idea! I used USB cable without a jacket and was able to clean the heater, no vinegar required ;)
Thanks, this was a great tutorial. Can confirm I was able to boot from pcie nvme on rampage IV extreme mobo after bios mod/flash was completed. Was unable to download the module needed from link in description (probably just old and dead link), however, the file needed is "NvmExpressDxe_4.ffs", and I was able to find another link just by googling it.
- In Asus support for your MB go to 'Drivers & Tools' and for OS select 'Others'. - Download the 'Bios Renamer for USB BIOS Flashback' and use it to rename the modded BIOS. -Now, I haven't tried this yet, but apparently- you _can_ flash the mod BIOS from a FAT32 thumb-drive (in the dedicated rear IO port) using the BIOS Flashback function which means there is no need to install the horrible Asus AI Suite II (which is then practically impossible to completely remove). ETA >> I've just used this method successfully. I gather the BIOS flashback function isn't on some versions of the P8Z77-V, so our host possibly didn't have the option available.
Question - if the water at 1:21 comes out slow; but the water pump to water pitcher/carafe is clear/into the pump. Then coming out of pump it’s really slow. Kinda shocking cause it stopped pretty quickly…after working this morning. My concern is somehow a plug of coffee is stuck in the pump itself. Any thoughts on what to do?
Thank you very much for providing this solution and explaining it so well. For those who have doubts, I will tell you that I have made this modification in the bios of a Gigabyte B85M-D3H board successfully. 😀 Greetings from A Coruña/Galiza/Spain
I have a Gigabyte GA-F2A88X-D3HP and are this the steps?? 1) Update the bios (via USB in my case) 2) Dowload UEFI Tool + Modul + Latest Bios update 3) Modify the Bios with UEFI Tool + Modul 4) Update the Bios again with the new Bios Modify (via USB in my case) right???? In my case didin't work EDIT: ITS WORK!!!
@Dear brothers, my pc hardware ... Gigabyte A520M Motherboard, AMD Ryzen 5 Pro 4650G processor Samsung 980 500GB PCIe 3.0 M.2 NVMe SSD But M.2 SSD is not showing during Windows Installation. Please suggest me how do Solv this problem?
Merci pour l'info ! Et génial, ça m'a fait penser à "Smith & Wesson" dans les bureaux de la compagnie d'assurance à New York (l'aventure c'est l'aventure).. Merci !
