Ok it detected it again, dont know what happened. I try to flash the blank bios.

It gives this error when i try to verify the writed bios. Flashed the blank bios. It gived the same error with every bios.

Are you selecting the chip directly, by it's full name? If yes, don't, let it auto select. Or if that is same, click next close one, for W25Q64FVSIG I use W25Q64BV and no issues (When actual ID gives issue sometimes)

Then do the process in this order. Close the program and then re-open. Choose W25Q64BV. Go to auto, uncheck erase and blank check. Click on erase, when it's done click on blank check. Once that is done, open BIOS file, then click auto.

Don't let it frustrate you, you'll get it!

Aah that did the trick. Thank you very much. Have to say i got little sweaty from the armpits lol.

I flashed your modified bios and it doesnt do the 30 min shutdown anymore alltough it doesnt show the Intel Management Engine in the device manager.

Does this have to do something with the lan id mismatch you mentioned? http://kuvanjako.fi/3r3p0-1920.jpg

Btw if i restore default in bios it wont boot anymore.

OK, finally some success, that's great! Which BIOS did you flash?

Anyway, now that you've got the process working, program back in the BIOS I made you from post #52. If this fails, then we know for sure your dump initially was broken somehow and I'll have to make you a new one from stock and try to dig up your board specific details.

No, the image you show is the PXE screen for booting from LAN. But yes, if you can't get a connect there that could be due to incorrect LAN too. To check it's not working try LAN in windows, if you can connect then run ipconfig /all from a command prompt and upload image of the output here.

The way I inserted ME info that last BIOS may not work, since they do not include ME as part of the stock downloadable BIOS, that could be why it's not working.
I may have to dig around and find a valid dump to get you all sorted out now, since your original dump may not be valid. Lets hope it is, and only your write process failed last time instead.
Try the BIOS built from your dump again, lets see the outcome. Be sure to set programmer same way again, if no boot, program back this latest BIOS instead and we'll sort it out from there.

Ok i put the bios from post 52 and it shows unknown device in device manager but when i put ethernet cable on it disappeared and Intel management engine appeared in device manager.
Must have downloaded driver for it.


Heres the ipconfig sorry cant get better quality from my phone http://kuvanjako.fi/r118a-1920.jpg

OK, sounds and looks good then, you have a LAN MAC ID IP and can connect to the internet correct? Install/update Intel ME driver and LAN driver from your download page at Asus, then reboot

Yea i can connect to net. Theres just if i restore default in bios it wont boot anymore. Have to reflash the bios to get it boot again.

Dont know if its a big deal. The Sata is in AHCI mode after flash.

That's with the BIOS I fixed ME in correct? If yes, please explain in more details what you mean by wont boot anymore. Can't enter BIOS at all, can't see anything on screen, can't get to windows etc?

Now that ME is fixed, and your booting, you can reflash stock BIOS from Asus, does that fix the issue? If not, and you have done that already, then more details are needed so we can try to figure out what's going on
Maybe some default setting isn't working with your hardware that fail safe does not have set, I can change that so we just have to figure out which it might be.

SATA AHCI post flash, and with optimized default too correct? Once you load defaults, can you reboot back to BIOS? if yes, go there and make sure your OS drive is at top of the hard drive boot priority list (not where you set CD, Floppy, HDD order), the setting I'm referring to is specifically hard drive/ssd only.
If you can't find, and getting to windows is the issue, then I'll get you the exact name and location of this setting.

Yea that bios you fixed the ME. If i boot and hit f2 to enter bios and there restore defaults it doesnt boot. Power led flashes for second and then power offs every time i press power button. Blank screen all the time. Theres no optimize defaults option in bios, just restore defaults.

After i reflash the fixed me bios it boots again and loads windows.

Do i flash the stock bios with the programmer? Cant flash it in bios cause it says its too old bios.

No, don't use programmer with stock BIOS, you'll loose board details. So powers off after second or two when defaults are loaded? Asking to confirm since you say blank screen all the time, of course that would be if power is off, but way you said that I wonder if you meant it reboots then screen is blank till you shut off and try again.
And to further confirm, without loading defaults, it shuts down and reboots any time you want, normally? When you do load defaults and go to exit/reboot, does it show on screen notification like "You made these changes", confirm and saving to exit? Anything along those lines?

When you say "Reflash fixed me BIOS" you mean program correct?

Try doing this from within windows, then test loading optimal again. Windows will reboot, once it does load defaults and see if anything changes
fptw.exe -greset

Sorry for my poor explanation but yea when i hit restore defaults in bios and hit save and exit it shuts down without rebooting on its own. Then when i push power button it starts for a second and shuts down. Same thing if i push power button more times.

But i can change individual settings in bios and it boots fine. And everything is working in windows. 30 min shutdown dont happen anymore.

Everything else is fine as long as i remember not to put restore defaults.

OK, we'll fix it! Please do the fptw.exe -greset and see if that helps, if not we'll figure it out.

Do i write the fptw.exe -greset in command prompt?

Or do we stop here. Im just happy that the shutdowns has stopped do to your great work.

That restore default thing in bios is no problem for me. Or do you wanna investigate more?

Yes, in command prompt at this location >> Flash Programming Tool\WIN32
Using this Intel Tools Package, select the win32 folder, hold shift and press right click, then choose open command window here. Then enter fptw.exe -greset
System will reboot

Yes, I would like to investigate why load defaults is failing for you, since it shouldn't do that and fail safe defaults (loaded now) are not ideal to run on all the time, but if you don't want to mess with It further we don't have to.
