Full NVMe module is 21 KB Flashing the modified BIOS MMTool is able to see the inserted module just fine.Ĭomparison of original and normal NVMe module inserted. It appears that insertion is successful, no error message or whatsoever during insertion, and the module is visible when the BIOS file is reopened. This will pop up, select yes, search for the NVMe module. Launch UEFITool 0.28 and open the original BIOS file. Using UEFIToolīefore starting, I generated a report of the original BIOS with MMTool.Ĭomparing second volume, it is indeed true that 6 KB is occupied by the “small” NVMe module.īut it appears that the BIOS still have a lot of “bytes free”.Ĭonsidering this motherboard has “DualBIOS”, and I have a CH341a programmer, I decided to be very adventurous with the modification. The only difference should be the addition of the NVMe module, and nothing else. It is easier to compare both side by side. The modified BIOS file should be opened again for verification. fd will be added to the file, change it to. Create another modified copy of the BIOS file Just make sure the extension of the file is same as original. I personally prefer to “Save Image as…”, to avoid touching the original BIOS file. Save Image and overwrite the original file Insertion is successful, press “Save Image”, and flash the BIOS.
There is no window showing that insertion is successful, but it can be seen at the bottom of the Vol. MMTool might freezes momentarily while inserting the module. The not so safe option, use UEFITool to insert it. But…įrom this point onward there are two options, the safe option, insert the “small” NVMe module with MMTool and call it a day. Normally when this occurs, we can try to insert it compressed. Select the Insert tab, browse, and select the module. Select “Load Image” at top left corner, find the BIOS file and open it.įind the module CSMCORE, take note of the “Vol.

This can also be considered as a simplified guide.Īll credits goes to Fernando for creating the guide and CodeRush for his UEFITool. I am merely sharing my experience of modding my BIOS, the steps I’ve performed based on the forum. This post is based entirely on this win-raid forum.

In the meantime, it can be useful to users who want to extract or update the information inside a BIOS file.To boot from a NVMe drive, the special BIOS EFI module is required. In a nutshell, UEFITool makes quite an impression, although it's still got a long way to reach the peak of its development. Once you're done with the editing part, you can export the image locally, for later use. The operations that you can carry out with UEFITool are various and make quite the list you can extract data from an image (or just the body) or you can insert items inside the structure of the image, as well as to insert or remove unwanted pieces. UEFITool is compatible with a variety of BIOS image types, including ROM, BIN, CAP, BIO, FD, WPH and EFI, which are loaded and displayed inside a structured view, alongside details such as name, type and subtype. The application sports an extremely simple design and is less impressive in terms of appearance the compromise it makes on looks is certainly compensated in functionality, if we look at the bigger picture. This is not to say that anyone can handle an application such as UEFITool however, with a minimum level of knowledge in BIOS modding, users can make the most of it and achieve modified versions of an UEFI image in a complication-free manner. The management of UEFI images is said to be a job for professionals, although UEFITool delivers an approach that doesn't target advanced users exclusively. UEFITool is brought in a line of work that was less exploited and advertised up until recently. UEFITool is a versatile application that accepts BIOS image files as input in order to facilitate the visualization and editing of the data inside them.
