@Lost_N_BIOS Thank you! The newly modded BIOS works well.

@Jeans - Maybe switch back once you are done, or move to slot 3 or 4 etc, you only need x4 electrically in any slot that's x4-x16 in length.

Thanks for quick report back @tensor77 and you're welcome

Hello,

I have a P8Z77 PRO and would like to know if you have the latest micro code and latest nvme support cap file or I could just get the files needed for ubu to update the code for nvme on my 2018 file.

Thanks

Hi @Lost_N_BIOS I'm new here and I will thank you for this guide. I'm writing because my new WD Black SN750 1TB mounted on 16x pcie adapter won't boot. I have a core i7 3770k with 16gb ram and a graphic card into the 1st pcie slot (nearest cpu).
Some additional info: I've successfully flashed my P8z77-v pro with modded bios in post #16, so appeared and setted in 1st boot order the "PATA ssd". I've cloned my actual 256gb ssd to the new nvme with Acronis software, un plugged the ssd, tried to mount the adapter in 2nd slot and in 3rd slot in 1x or 4x mode but won't boot anyway. I've also tried to modify some bios settings like secureboot. Any suggestions?

Thank you

Don't Cloned your 256GB SSD, unplug the 256GB, just use the only SN750 1TB to fresh install windwos 10 and format it with GPT partition and let windows auto partition the drive.

Thank you, I follow your hint after many attempts I've found the right way!!
For those who still have problem this is what I've done, in order: I've created a new GPT partition (was mbr). I've flashed the motherboard bios with a previous official version to reset all my changes, then re-flashed again with the modded version in post #16. After this, win10 still won't install from the bootable usb so I've tried many bios setup combinations, and the right one is: CSM "disabled" and select "windows" in secure boot os type; all other settings are stock.
So finally win10 start and I can do my 1st benchmark: 1500 mb/s average, instead of 3000.. to solve this I've moved the pcie adapter from the 3rd to the middle pcie slot (1st slot near cpu was occupied by graphic card) and the benchmark jumped to 3150 mb/s!

So do you think I've to connect the graphic card to pci_3 slot and the ssd to pci_1 with limited bios setting to 4x?

thank you @stardreamer77 , however I'm satisfied!

@Musashi - I do not see a P8Z77 PRO at Asus site, only P8Z77-V PRO (This topic main reason for being), or P8Z77M-PRO.
You need to check to be sure what you have, if you have P8Z77-V PRO, then see post #16 on page 2, but this BIOS is stock+NVME only, no microcode updates
If you don't want to update microcodes with UBU, or can't figure that out, let me know and I can update that BIOS again with all microcodes.

@Fernando - Yes, I agree, maybe title needs edited to include all variants....
But there is no worry for user to flash wrong BIOS, USB Flashback wont allow that, even if they tried to rename wrong BIOS to their USB Flashback name (Only heavily edited BIOS, with this cross-flash purpose in mind allows that to be possible)

@Lost_N_BIOS Its the P8Z77-V PRO my bad but its really the only one thats pretty popular. as for the micro code I have no clue how to do it.... so if you could make it to the lastest that would be great :D also do you know how to overclock the G.Skill Trident X PC3-19200 DDR3 2400 8gbx2 RAM (F3-2400C10D-16GTX) I cant seem to get it to 3000 or 2800mhz.....only 2440mhz...

Thanks

@Lost_N_BIOS Hi! I have p8z77v-deluxe. At the moment I have a sata3 SSD Samsung Pro and a RAID 1 HDD Raid but I am planing to upgade to a NVME M2 SSD and keep the RAID 1. What is the best combination to be up to date and can you help me make that bios?

Also second question is it possible to change the boot screen to something else?

Anyone around that has flashed a P8Z77-V LX and can tell me how it needs to be done?

I read in the manual that it has a recovering mode. I renamed a bios file to P8Z77VLX.CAP and put it in the root of a FAT32 usb stick but have no idea how to enter the recovery mode.

thx.
