Yes, indeed. It looks like an older release of the latest branch (11.12.0) vs the latest release of an older branch (11.11.65).

Maybe they'd fault number due FIT Tool showing 11.11.0.1558 on ME analysis table. Personally I think it was ME firmware 11.11.0.1558 not 11.12.0.1558

Hello!

I am having a very strange problem with my motherboard Z68X-UD7.

What happens is, if I leave my computer off for a long time with the power cord removed from the PSU, I get the message "Waiting for ME ready". Then, enters a countdown on the screen that leads to a new boot attempt (and it turns to a infinite boot loop).

To get rid of this, i have to turn off my PSU, hold power btn for 5 seconds and then, turn on again.

I read some information regarding this issue and saw that it could be related to the Intel ME firmware, and then, searching for any clues, i got here.

My doubt is... Will a firmware update, resolve this damn issue?

My mobo is already with the lastest bios released.

Thx in advance and sorry for my english.

Intel CSME 12.0 Consumer PCH-LP C Firmware v12.0.47.1524

@Koopaa

Try updating the firmware to the latest version first to see if that fixes the problem. Also, run Flash Programming Tool with command "fptw -greset" and check if the problem persists.

New Asus ROG Rampage VI Extreme Encore X299 bios also contains Intel ME v11.12.0.1558 ! newer despite older creation date ?

https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/LG...E-ASUS-0224.zip

Can you please help me with this?

1 - I've downloaded Intel ME 7 1.5MB Firmware v7.1.80.1214 "For 6/X79/C600-series systems which run ME 1.5MB v7" and I didnt find the FWUpdLcl 64bits, only the 32 bits version. If I get the FWUpdLcl64 from other versions or packages, it will do the job correctly?
2 - The Intel ME Firmware v7.1.80.1214 (1.5MB) is the right one for me?

Hello,
I tried to use CSME Tools 9.1 to open this server's bios SPS image.
Unfortunately i get errors while opening it.
This is Xeon E5-2600 with C612 chipset.
I want to change BootGuard policy so i'm looking for something like Intel's fit.exe
What would be the best way to achieve this goal?
thanks much!

@TJJ
Normally BIOS Flashback does not solve this problem because it only restores unlocked SPI regions (usually BIOS only and not the locked ME). Your motherboard has an unlocked Flash Descriptor so ME was unlocked for write access. Yes, you were lucky to have an unlocked descriptor. Now, you can update to the latest 1.5MB v9.0 firmware which is 9.0.31.1487 and can be found at the first port of mine.
