hi. i found this thread after going through about 5 others. i have a asus prime z270-A motherboard (7700k right now) and I downloaded a new bios that the ME firmware was under v11.7.x.1xxx (didn't know if this tool still required that)

i put it in the AllInOne.exe and selected option 2 (i plan to use a 9600k) so it started doing its thing and it said it was successful! but it spit back out a .BIN file and not a .CAP how do i change it back to a cap where i can flash the motherboard with it?


ASUSTeK_PRIME_Z270-A_1009.U0P0.HT.ACPI.678ABC.bin is what came out
PRIME-Z270-A-ASUS-1009.CAP is what went in

---

so the ASUSTeK_PRIME_Z270-A_1009.U0P0.HT.ACPI.678ABC.bin is correct just flashing it will be harder because i cant use the official bios flashing tool.

i just need to but the spi programmer and follow the steps in that guide to flash it properly.


is there a way i can try to change it back to cap and just try to see if itll pass a secure check? or do i need to change it to a cap anyway before doing the spi programmer

I got this ASRock_B250_Gaming_K4_B25GK42.CON117.PCIE.678ABC.bin generated BIOS, can i flash this via official updater in current bios? Is it still support Kabylake after that. Thank you!

@c0mmanderX: Current Coffee Time should offer to export as .cap, alternatively you can use UEFITool to copy the actual UEFI block in the .bin file into the capsule of any .cap. (coffee time is easier, the other method must have been described half a dozen times by me in this and the neighbouring thread if you are still interested)

However as revlaay said: Software tools will not flash modified file and Z270-A does not have hardware based flashback. Even ROG or Prime Deluxe boards which usually/sometimes do have hardware flasher onboard often requiering additional hardware or individual mods for unlock first.

So I just gotta remod the bios in coffeetime to .cap then get the flashing kit and follow the steps there. Where is the coffeetime thread/post?

There is no dedicated thread, but svarmod can be usually found here [GUIDE] Coffee Lake CPUs on Skylake and Kaby Lake motherboards and almost no one does still use the manual methods described before revlaays tool and CoffeeTime made everything so much easier.
Just to make things more confusing, you will need .bin/.rom to flash with CH134A, not .cap :-)

Ok thats not more confusing that's auctually way easier if my .bin bois I made with the allinone.exe will work then and I just need to get a flasher. I also found his discord server as well when I found the download for coffeetime.

I assume this will work as well? Has a much faster ship time then the Ebay link

Figured out what is going on with my low vid values. Basically to be able to properly set a certain voltage in bios and have some consistency
you need four things:

1. Have to set CPU Core ratio above 45X with all cores synced (as anything below 46X resulted in low vid and vcore values)
2. Must use Adaptive Vcore setting in Bios and set the Adaptive Turbo voltage value to your desired vcore
3. Have to manually configure AC LL (0.8-1.0 worked for me) and set DC LL to 'AUTO'
4. Have the Sync-all-Cores patch enabled

Now have consistent matching vcore vid values in bios and in Windows reported by CPU-Z or CoreTemp, or HwInfo.
