Please, open your output modbios in CoffeeTime again, but now in Advanced mode and update vbios to 1059 (only this one).
All P0/R0 Coffee Lake CPUs (it's most of 9xxx) requires vbios 1059+ to work iGPU. But v0.83 update vbios to 1054 in automode. I'll fix it in next CT build.
Using SPI programmer for flashing - best way to get success.

Found a bug maybe with the CoffeeTime utility. When I tried to mod the bios of an Asus Z270-WS bios ver 701 it failed to change the SKU for some reason.

Heres the file: http://www.mediafire.com/file/mv4valb2l4...S-ASUS-0701.zip


Despite that I was able to mod that version through other means. Just wanted to share the file fwiw.

Thanks

If you used CT_0.83, than it's ok if SKU wasn't changed.
Some time ago SKU changing was replaced by SKU-hack.

@svarmod thanks for coffeetime. I just buy i3-9100f (stepping B0), does coffeetime 0.83 support it ?
and if coffeetime 0.83 support, which target CPU do I need to selected ?

I wait for the 9700K R0 stepping, so i have time until the updated coffeetime release. Hmmm EFI programming, i never do that earlier. The usb programmer is not so expensive, but i think to order a new bios chip from ebay, and the seller programming for free, and i have a backup plan, if anything goes wrong.

Thanks for using CoffeeTime. ;)
A you sure if 9100f is exactly B0? All photos i saw in net shows that 9100f has U0 revision.
Anyway, you can recognize revision when cpu will be on hands using image of revisions comparison from CT.
For 9100F-B0 (same as i3-8xxx/G5600) choose "5" in CT_0.83 main menu.
For 9100F-U0 (same as i5-8xxx/G54xx) choose "4" in CT_0.83 main menu.

I want to modding the VIII Ranger (bios 3504) to use 9700K. I do the following steps:

1. I run the coffeetime 0.83, 2. Choose the original 3504 bios, 3. choose 2 i7 9xxx/ i5 9600k, 4. choose 1 - autoupdate, choose 3 skylake/kabylake support, 5. choose 2 - unlock regions, 6. choose 3 - mac address, transfer mac address from this pc, 7. choose e - finalize, 8. choose usb bootable bios. 8, moding the cpu, 9. flashing the bios by usb flashing method. 10. insert the cpu and power on. Every steps runs perfectly.

Is this the right process? When will it support the new cpus :9700K R0 stepping, 9700KF?

Thanks

so I need an efi bios chip programmer (like: LCD Flash SPI USB To TTL 24/25 Series EEPROM CH341A BIOS Writer USB Programmer) to overwrite fully the bios chip, with the cap file, which is generated by the coffeetime. I see now.

Capsule restoring required only for ASUS USB Flashback flashing method.
For SPI programmer you need to dismiss capsule restoring at finalizing and use .bin.

I wish we could flash bios and run, don't need to pinmod in any stepping :)

Hi,

Just bought copper tape and was testing the under surface of the tape for conductivity considering theres adhesive which is not conductive and noticed that I had to press hard with my probes to get a reading.

So wondering if the pencil mod is working for me why bother and does that adhesive cause issues?

Thanks

Do u have any modded bios for Asus Maximus IX Formula?

Where did you get the M10E bios file for flashing?

You can mod the original bios file with coffeetime 0.83, and flash back to the bios chip manually by an efi programmer, like ch341a. This is the safest method. You can order a new bios chip on ebay for 15 usd with the moded bios (sent by you). It is a safest way: switch the bios chip on board manually, you cannot bricked the board this way. Read back the forum little, and it gets clear.
