I didn't have full dump before any flashes. I think GbE is not used. No matter I use the origin BIOS or modded BIOS, MAC address of GBE is the same, B0:25:AA:28:2B:69. I can see all are this, in BIOS main page, or in windows ipconfig /all. I doesn't have a router to test now.

What's more, If you can please have a modded version based on my dumped origin bios. Thank you.

It's OK, pcfr33k will send me one I'm sure. Can you use the LAN Port now, or you only have wireless? Maybe you got lucky and it saved it on your chip, or it's stored elsewhere, not in BIOS region, or not in BIOS at all?
If no GbE is used, and you wrote in stock BIOS region with empty DMI info etc which you now see as lost serial/UUID, but MAC still works, it must be stored somewhere else. Or you erased it and then somehow programmed in full BIOS without GbE, but still working OK on your system, I doubt this BIOS does not use GbE, but it's possible.
Need full dump from pcfr33k then we'll know for sure.

Yes, I can fix you mod BIOS, from your original dump, with all details corrected + Mod. But wait, until we find out about GbE so I can rebuild complete BIOS for you with GbE in it if it should be there.
Otherwise I can just send you fixed BIOS region and you can reflash that with FPTw -bios -f filename.bin. But first, I need to edit the stock BIOS, so no matter what it will take me a little bit to get the mods done for your model.

I have tested that my ethernet works well. So I think the GBE information is not stored in bios region.

OK, thanks! I still want to know if GbE region should be in BIOS or not, so we need to wait on full BIOS dump from someone else too, I'm sure pcfr33k will post soon or PM me about it
Doing the mod for your board model now and I see BIOS modules not same size, and menu ID's not same either, I'm surprised the BIOS menus work for you at all with the GK5CN6Z BIOS.
That may be part of why you're having an issue with that pushbutton reset setting? Or it may be unrelated, but while doing this mod and collecting all the menu ID's to do the changes, I'm really surprised that BIOS works for you at all since all the ID's are different values.
Maybe it works by chance since that BIOS has matching AMITSE, AMITSE/SetupData, and Setup module all swapped out so they match up, that's probably why it works for you now that I say it out loud
I assume it would fail hard if you swapped out only one or the other AMITSE, AMITSE/SetupData, or Setup with the mod BIOS GK5CN6Z files.

I've really got to get a guide written out for everyone to use this, and pull down that FPT mod BIOS info, putting it on pause now before it causes anyone else grief and loss of serial, UUID etc.

The modded can works. pushbutton reset setting is nothing harmful. The bad thing is force close will made corrupt nvram using new microcode bios.
I think all GK5CN6Z BIOS seems can be swapped to each other. Before your mod, I also try flash OP-LP2 origin or other brand bios and it also works.

Yes, and it maybe all due to you used BIOS region not meant for your system. I want you to test that with proper BIOS for your system, almost done
Works for your system and works fully and properly may not be the same thing. You'll have to test mod BIOS made from your system BIOS, with the updated microcodes and see if you have same issue, if so then I'll hide that option in microcode update BIOS, or you just don't force a shut down manually
This setting should be rebooting for you anyway, why are you forcing a shut down to begin with? No matter what works, or doesn't, you shouldn't be forcing a shut down unless absolutely have to, and if you do in this new BIOS I make for you, then you'll have to either not use that option, or reflash the second BIOS I make with hidden setting

I'll include the third BIOS in your package too, updated microcodes, but no pushbutton setting, so you can use if you want, rest of public posted BIOS I will remove that option, no one needs it anyway since BIOS you can reboot via save and exit, or discard and exit, and if you need windows boot options push F8 on bootup as normally would do.

*Edit - @bzv - here is three corrected BIOS regions for you, flash these via FPTw -bios -f filename.bin (you can shorten the names I used, just remember which is which)
http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?fil...251007078828816

Please test the updated microcode one first (bzv-Orig-Mod-Micro.bin), since this now has your proper dual NVRAM volumes, I want to see if you still have that same issue with the pushbutton shut down.
If you do still have the issue, then I will hide that option in the microcode updated BIOS packages (already included for you >> bzv-Orig-Mod-Micro-NoPush)
The file named bzv-Orig-Mod.bin is your original FPT dump, with the mods applied correctly, and nothing else changed (So still old microcodes)
All have your serial, UUID etc, as in original dump.

@Lost_N_BIOS
The orig_mod_micro remains black after flashed in can't boot.
And the orig_mod can boot but doestn't have unlocked config. The SN and UUID exist in this version.

Sorry @bzv - maybe I mixed up the files during your edit! I'll move it all to one folder for you only and do it again!
Give me a minute if you're hear reading this now. * Edit - yes, that's what happened, I checked your orig-mod and it's missing the unlock mod, due to that I probably messed it all up since all others built from that one once I was done with it.
Repack coming for you shortly!

* Edit @ bzv - sorry about that mixup! Here is corrected BIOS files for you, should all be OK this time!
http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?fil...578819751382472

The updated microcode version still can't boot.
Non microcode update version can works and have unlocked settings. I think there may be some problem with the microcode.

@bzv - Thanks for report back! Must be UEFITool messing with a padding file somewhere maybe, I saw new version removed it, so used older as usual and it stayed, maybe I missed one. I'll have to check again or use MMTool.
Well send you repack in a second... again Sorry about this!

*Edit - @bzv - It's weird that the other BIOS with microcode update worked for you previously, I don't remember using MMTool on that BIOS for the original microcode edits, but maybe that BIOS handles the changes differently than your original?
The microcodes are fine, you've already used them before. Who knows, I can't see any issue with the mod files once done? Try these now instead - http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?fil...152676088294219

@Lost_N_BIOS This version bzv-Orig-Mod3Micro.bin works well without any problem. Force close at any situation (including push button reset) also no influence. I think this time microcode update works correctly.
Thank you very much.

@bzv - thanks for update and you're welcome, glad it's finally OK! So, no need to hide pushbutton then either you agree? Maybe it was only fluke with last batch, since it worked OK for pcfr33k, or due to you using on that system maybe?
But thanks and I'm glad we had issue this time, for all from now on I will use MMTool to do microcode just in case

Sorry all, I've been on work travel and plan to catch up with PMs and the thread the next few days ... @Lost_N_BIOS, I will send you my full BIOS dump later if no one else has done so.

@nimaim - good to see you back! I've got a dump from pcfr33k, so no need now but thank you. I think the best move is our last PM I sent you early this morning, working on finishing that up tonight
