@ all:

Today I have totally refurbished the start post of this thread and added the new Intel RST(e) EFI "RaidDriver" modules v14.0.0.2198 (Source: Station-Drivers).

Update of the start post

Changelog:

new: Intel RST(e) EFI "RaidDriver" modules v14.0.0.2198 for GUID 90C8D394 and GUID 91B4D9C1 (thanks to Pacman for the source file)
new: Intel Broadwell GopDriver v5.5.1032 for Broadwell and Broadwell compatible Haswell iGPUs
removed: some old and less interesting Intel RST(e) and RSTe EFI "RaidDriver" modules.

Any feedback or infos regarding missing files are much appreciated!

Good luck!

Hi Fernando,

I tried to insert the 14.0.0.xxxx satadriver ffs and get an 'invalid ffs' error message in mmtool. I searched with google and you said you get these with invalid checksums?

how to fix?

thanks

Are you sure, that you tried to insert the FFS file with the GUID, which is suitable for your mainboard BIOS?
Which GUID does the AMI Aptio MMTool show for the "SataDriver" module, which is within your original BIOS?

The EFI RaidDriver (="SataDriver") source file has not been checksum corrected, but the GUID variants I am offering within the start post of this thread have been checksum corrected by me (checksum-8: F8).

@ all:

Unfortunately I had uploaded a few days ago new Intel EFI RaidDriver modules v14.0.0.2198, which obviously were unusable (affected users got the message, that the related FFS files were invalid). I am sorry about that.
It was Pacman, who gave me the info today. That is why I didn't correct the mistake earlier.

Update of the start post

Changelog:

corrected: Intel RST(e) EFI "RaidDriver" modules v14.0.0.2198 for GUID 90C8D394 and GUID 91B4D9C1 (thanks to Pacman for the info)

Yes.
Why do you think, that it may not?
There is generally no difference between desktop and mobile system BIOSes regarding the Intel RAID ROM/EFI modules (except the very limited BIOS options and the fact, that 99% of the mobile systems neither need nor use RAID modules, because the RAID mode doesn't make much sense for mobile systems).

Hi,

Was wondering whats the difference between 'IntelGopDriver' and 'IntelSaGopDriver'? I see both in my firmware. Could not find an explanation.

Thank you.

I asked this question already in July 2013 (look >here<), but neither SoniX nor Pacman knew it.
The only important Intel "Graphics Output Protocol Driver", which is used while booting in "clean" UEFI mode, is the IntelGopDriver (look >here<).

The IntelGopDriver is the actual EFI GOP driver that will take care of the display during booting with CSM disabled. The IntelSaGopDriver stands for Intel System Agent GOP Driver and it is responsible for the protocols and policies related to the GOP driver. The first one is provided by Intel and updatable, the later is compiled by OEM and should not be touched.

I believe it can also be found under the name of IntelSaGopPolicy, if I'm not confusing the two of them.

Hi,

I have laptop named Asus N73SV and it has a option of UEFI boot, while not having the EFI driver.
So I came here and try it out, using the instruction of course. (Using the Ami UEFI Tool version 4.5)
The uncompressed and the compressed version didnt work and still gave me "File size exceeds the volume size".
You can try it out, by downloading the bios on the official website.
Odly enough this bios is not a UEFI(In terms of UI) yet cant be open by a non UEFI ami tool.

Soo.. Im a bit lost.
You might wanna ask why you want UEFI boot able? While the HM65 chip doesnt support raid?
Because modding is fun, risky, but fun.

You might want to try compressing some of the other modules to make room..
