[Guide] How to get full NVMe support for all Systems with an AMI UEFI BIOS

Results in very stable and reliable NVMe boot drive and system for "ancient" Gigabyte GA-Z87X-UD3H mobo; BIOS version F10b mobo sporting an Aptio 4 BIOS/UEFI; which should now run like a top on the latest Windows 10.
Use BIOS Q-Flash method, see page 89-91 of your manual.
Remember to create, via Rufus, a DOS FAT32 bootable USB and flash the unzipped file (see Fernando's instructions).

Cheers and enjoy

Edit Feb 17, 2020 updated network ROM/EFI and CPU microcode to version 28

Hi thanks for modding the BIOS.

Did you update the other OROMs or were they already updated?

That would be compared to the other modded BIOS I have is shown below -

Intel Legacy RAID ROM 12.7.0.1936 to 13.2.0.2134
Intel UEFI SataDriver 12.5.0.1815 to 13.2.0.2134
OROM VBIOS Haswell 1028
EFI Intel GOPdriver Broadwell 5.5.1023
Intel Boot Agent GE 1.5.04 to 1.5.56
Intel GigabitLan X64 5.1.00 to 6.3.27
Marvell 88SE91xx Adapter 1.0.0.0034
EFI Marvell RAID for SATA 1.1.0.1007
CPU Microcode 06C319 to 06C31C
ME firmware 9.0.30.1482
Modified splash logo 2

Yes OROMS were updated to the latest available via the UBU tool as a matter of course, but the UEFI is the future so most folks will convert to GPT partitions to take advantage of the UEFI features.

Cheers

I tried this (and even tried to downgrade bios, but to no avail) and lost all my sata disk booting using UEFI. I had clover on GPT partitions, and now I can't boot even an UEFI usb media. I can only boot using clover's extra bootloader on mbr.

Any ideas?

Using the clover boot loader doesn't seem to make much sense, as this motherboard supports UEFI boot drives.
I know I upgraded my son's computer using a NVMe Samsung 950 PRO 512GB drive and installed all drives as GPT about a two and half years ago; which require UEFI support.
Needed an extra adapter card to hold the M.2 drive. Double check your boot drive settings in the BIOS/UEFI as this is an APTIO IV which is a
mixture. CSM (Compatibility Support Mode) should be disabled if your going full GPT/UEFI on the boot drive!
Result: The mobo runs GPT/UEFI partitions without breaking a sweat.

Also always back up your boot drive BEFORE messing with it so you can always retrieve your personal data, should you experience a SNAFU.

Clover is for hackintoshes, to boot mac os on generic intel hardware. I used https://www.easyuefi.com/ to reconfigure uefi to include clover.efi and it works.

@hancor Do you have an updated bios or is this the latest for ud3h? Thanks a lot mate

As you can check F10b is the latest bios for this board:
https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/GA-...support-dl-bios

The modded F10b offered at the beginning of this post is the latest available and works rock steady on my son's computer which he uses for work purposes. I've had no complaints or issues from him at all since I modded his board BIOS/UEFI.

Enjoy

Cheers

Hey @hancor excuse my ignorance. I'm so happy that I found your post as otherwise I had to buy new mobo + CPU+RAM and yeah. Ok so I successfully updated to your version of the MOBO 10b and I have roline adapter + Sam 970 EVO

It's not working for me I mean I see the drive in the boot options with weird name but I see it. BTW win 10 ORIGINAL i detecting the ssd as not compatible by the MB and saying you can't install windows here however you can select it and press NEXT After initial Install of Win10 If I want to go to the ssd to boot it's giving me some windows error winload.exe is not available blah blah. I have 3 drives on the PC -> 1 server grade HDD, 1 hybrid SSD+HDD, 1 NVme SSD. On the second one there were windows now I can't boot normally. (It's not from BIOS for sure).

Therefore I will appreciate if you post or even export your mobo settings so we do it 1:1 with your setup.

Any Other suggestions from your side are highly appreciated.

Big thanks !!!
10X

When setting up, remove ALL the drives EXCEPT NVme SSD, and install Win10 on the NVME drive only. Works like a charm.
Once you've got the OS installed & patched, hook up the remaining drives to suit.

Cheers

Yes @hancor you were right, I had to remove all other drives, while installing windows. Then I got error message about GPT MBR which I fixed easily. And now the samsung magician is rocking with 3.3 GB/1.4 GB R/W which is amazing

thanks a lot, got bless you !!!!

Delighted that worked out for you! Oh HAPPY DAY

Hi hancor this is a new BIOS with microcode 25 from GB Support. Could you check if there is any modification or update about NVMe, EFI, ME, ....
