@scorpion

You are welcome!!!

Here the mod for the new 0802:

https://mega.nz/#!I65H0YRI!oUPNoEVNsqlZV...8-ZgxWOU6Npd1RY

Includes all the latest modules (Intel Raid 17.7 among them) and Microcode 60, which performs better than MC 64 (latest at this moment).

I cannot get this BIOS to upgrade

- Tried a different USB Drive (2)

Is ther another way to do this....

I dont want to mess with the BIOS that is there..........do i flip the BIOS SWITCH and try the other BIOS???

@scorpion - test flashing stock BIOS (or previous known flashable mod BIOS) with your USB at hand as it is now using flashback, if that works but new mod BIOS wont, then something wrong with the BIOS you are trying to use
@vmanuelgm - will have to check BIOS possibly, maybe forgot and didn't put in signed capsule this time? Sorry, I couldn't check, I can't download from Mega.NZ 99% of the time

The bios I linked is not the one with HPET parameter made by u, Lost_N_Bios, but the stock one with the latest updates in that moment and MC60 using UBU, so it should work ok.

In my rig I am using the 0802 HPET made by u, Lost_N_Bios, and whenever there is a new update or microcode I use UBU to update your HPET mod without any problems until now.

Only problem right now is the new Microcode 65 posted in this forum (I have a 50654 7980xe) is not working with my OS's (both Linux and Windows) since they won't load with it. I have to use previous Microcodes in order to boot the OS's. The bios does POST without any problems, but OS's won't work.

I tried Microcode 65 both in your HPET mod and the stock bios with negative result.

Try another usb pendrive and format it with fat32. The bios file name has to be R6EO.CAP and this file has to be recorded in the root of the pendrive.

I usually follow some special steps to ensure a proper flashing via Asus Flashback, I have been using them several years ago and all the mainboards worked ok in this aspect.

Steps:

1. Put the bios file with the correct name for Asus Flashback in a fat32 formatted pendrive (usually use trustable brands) in its root. I previously put the pendrive in the special usb port needed for Asus Flashback (there is only one USB port in the mainboard for Flashback so u have to check your manual).

2. Restart and go to bios to load standard settings, then save and exit.

3. I wait for BIOS post or load Windows or Linux and turn off the rig.

4. I then disconnect the power from the power supply, press the switch on button in the case to remove electricity from mainboard, and then press the clear cmos button.

5. I put the power cord and switch on power supply and motherboard, enter bios and load again standard settings, save and exit, wait for POST or load Windows or Linux and then switch off.

6. Then (I previously put the pendrive in the Flashback usb port) I push Asus Flashback button until the bios and Flashback button start to blink, wait until blinking is off and then start the pc again and enter bios and load standard settings, save and exit. The Asus Omega, after a bios flash, will POST and automatically will switch off and on and then u can wait for POST and switch off or load OS and switch off.

7. Finally, remove power cord, clear cmos, put the power cord back, switch on the pc and enter bios to load my OC settings or whatever settings I want.

8. Sometimes the flashing will include some ROG parts which must be updated too, so u have to wait several reboots to go on with the steps.

That's it!!!



EDIT: Turns out that MC65 is a beta and not intended to be use in normal release bios's, so 64 still the latest stable one.

Thanks to all......you are not going to believe how "AMATUER MY" MISTAKE WAS" the primary partition on the USB Flash was not marked as Primary so of course I could never BOOT off of it.

So I have taken care of that and marked that USB for BIOS FLASH only........thanks to all.....

@Lost_N_BIOS

Hi dear friend!!!

Could u please mod this new bios 3006 for Omega, to let it show HPET TCO and other hidden parameters???

https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/LG...9392.1576605856

Thanks in advance!!!

I would be interested in this modded BIOS if it done....

Thanks in Advanced...

@vmanuelgm you are using mostly MC 60 and 64 in your bios and there is another modder on rog forums that is using 49 and 69 but states its for skylakex but he has 3006 for r6eo with MC69, and you recomend mc60 over others, is there a specific reason?, and is MC60 and 64 only for cascade lake x, thank you. link below for that post

@lingaraju06

Right now I am using MC 69 in Omega 3006 bios...

Can you please note the difference in performance between mc 60 vs 64 vs 69 when u have time, and for a normal user like me is it really necessary to have those hpt tco hidden features enabled, just curious, thank you.

@lingaraju06

In my case I find MC60 and MC69 bring more performance than MC64. MC69 is the latest one, so safer and more refined (theoretically).

The available mod for Omega made by Lost_N_BIOS shows three extra parameters, HPET Timer (enabled/disabled), TCO Timer (enabled/disabled) and SPD Write Disable (True/false). U can't disable TCO but u can disable HPET in Bios and in OS and check performance (x299 doesn't work ok with HPET enabled in OS). I have it right now disabled both in Bios and OS and have a good result in terms of latency.

U can also put false in SPD Write Disable if u wanna use some apps like Thaiphoon to modify your SPD's.

Thank you for the explanation, i was using the 3006 bios provided by asus and then flashed the 3006 with mc69 in rog forums and i cant find or notice any difference except for the intel turbo wattage showing some 4000+ value and and current as very high value but left it at auto as those numbers appear really high and not sure if a cpu needs that kind of power for daily computing, i mostly use my pc for casual and vr gaming 90% of the time.

Talking about gaming low latency is helpful when playing multiplayers. Have a look at FR33THY Youtube Channel, nice content in regards.

@vmanuelgm - I did mod BIOS 3006 for you that you asked about in post #21 right? I seem to remember, maybe I sent in PM, since I don't see it linked here?
I guess I should add link here too!
