Flash via Instant Flash, don't rename sometimes that makes it invisible to Instant Flash.

Working perfectly. Wow.
No bootfailures or errors.

M2 is detected and listed as Microsoft Windows and sometimes as Windows boot manager in Bios window

Thanks for report back
Glad to see it's all working well now, enjoy that NVME Speed!

@dzivo - You're welcome! Sorry you're having an issue! Yes, it may be a faulty or incompatible adapter card, since this mod BIOS is already tested and confirmed working by above user
Can you test the card and or NVME on another system? If it works, it may be some compatibility issue?

Debug code D6 that means no graphics display issue, so maybe move device to slot that's not sharing with the graphics card
Did you try, clear CMOS, then boot to BIOS and load optimized, if you can get to BIOS? Did you try all slots one by one?

Try one of these, they work in everything I've put them into (you can get on ebay even cheaper, in black too, but China shipped so 3-4 weeks)

Hi there,

Thanks a lot for sharing this file, Nvme works perfectly on my old X79 asrock, it boots in very fews seconds, wouh !

Hi,
I'm trying to install a Samsung 970 EVO NVMe M.2 into my PC with an Asrock Extreme 4 x79 mobo. I am using a Lycom DT-120 Host adapter, details attached.

I have installed the BIOS modified in this thread but can't boot from the SSD. The SSD works OK when windows is running (it worked before installing the updated BIOS) so it works as a storage device with no problems but the only option I get in the boot menu is PATA.

Any help you could give me with this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks very much.

Thank you very much Fernando, that's great I will give it a go tomorrow and let you know what happens.

Hi Fernando,

I'm still having problems. I have attached pictures of the options I get while using Rufus. I don't appear to have the Image option that you have in the example in your instuctions.
Originally I cloned my old C: drive to the new SSD using Samsung Magician but have now wiped the drive to try and start again. Sorry to bother you with this/

Hi Fernando,

I'm quite new to this and managed to get myself confused. After reading your instuctions (properly) I succesfully got the SSD working.
Thanks very much for your help.
