Seems MEI driver v11.0.0.1160 "install only" is missing in post #1 (to replace v11.0.0.1157 version).

---

* Intel MEI Driver MEI-Only Installer v11.0.0.1157 --> v11.0.0.1160
* Intel ME 11.0 PCH-LP Corporate Firmware v11.0.0.1122 For research only!

Thread note: Text formatting, coloring etc on update posts takes too much time. From now on the update posts will look simpler.

* Intel ME 11.0 Consumer PCH-H Firmware v11.0.0.1168 from EXTR --> RGN (clean)
* Intel MEI Driver MEI-Only Installer from v11.0.0.1160 --> v11.0.0.1163



Note: Be on the look out for firmware 11.0.0.1171

@ 100PIER & Ghostearth:

Listen to ex58. It's as he says. You cannot use tools for other platforms and you cannot use firmware for other platforms. You cannot use 9-series tools on 7-series systems and you cannot upgrade to 9-series firmware on 7-series systems. These facts are clearly stated at the first post, please read it carefully.

@ jjxaker:

Yes, the package is 1163 but the driver is still 1160. If it included newer drivers I would have updated the INF as well.

What do you mean 1168 works? Do you have a Skylake system?

Really? That's great. What is your exact motherboard model? We have tested an ASRock and MSI Skylake board but both of them were reporting errors during update via FWUpdate. I thought that the tools were buggy but maybe a BIOS update is required on most boards.

* Intel ME 11.0 Consumer PCH-H Firmware from v11.0.0.1168 (05/08/2015) --> v11.0.0.1171 (18/08/2015)
* Intel ME 11.0 Corporate PCH-H Firmware from v11.0.0.1163 (17/07/2015) --> v11.0.0.1166 (24/07/2015)




@ jjxaker:

So, with the previous beta BIOS (1.6 beta 1) you tried to flash firmware 1168 and it failed. Do you remember what error it showed? Was it "Error 8719: Firmware update cannot be initiated because Local Firmware update is disabled" or "Error 8812: Restore point is invalid."? The first error was a mistake from MSI which was indeed fixed at latter beta versions. The second error though is what we are getting at another MSI and ASRock board.

Yesterday I uploaded 1168 again (this time it was RGN/clean instead of EXTR/dirty , not that it matters for FWUpdate tool). With the same beta BIOS (1.6 beta 1), did that 1168 firmware work successfully?

If it failed, did the same 1168 (clean, yesterday's) firmware work after updating to beta BIOS (1.6 beta 3)? Does beta 3 already have 1168 firmware by itself? In that case, you just reflashed the same firmware which works for the MSI & ASRock boards we have tested as well. But if it doesn't have 1168 by itself and you managed to update to it via FWUpdate, then maybe it's a bug in the BIOS code and not tool-related as I thought.

Today, I uploaded firmware 1171. Can you test this?
