Intel CSME 12.0 Consumer PCH-LP C Firmware v12.0.64.1551

Zitat von blaatschaap im Beitrag #4905
I was able to dump the whole spi without errors, as described in that other thread, so I think I have a system with that stuff unlocked.

From the MEInfo log, the CSME seems to be working just fine. You can also see that:

Host Read Access to ME Enabled
Host Write Access to ME Disabled

So you have read but not write access. Normally downgrading is not needed, the problem is usually elsewhere (bad BIOS/NVRAM, corrupted CSME File System etc). The official way to downgrade is via FWUpdate tool when the current and target firmware do not violate the SVN, VCN & PV security measures (read more at the OP). In this case, CSME 11.8.77 has higher VCN than 11.8.65 so you cannot downgrade via FWUpdate tool. The only way would be via FPT by manually transferring the settings via [Guide] Clean Dumped Intel Engine (CS)ME/(CS)TXE Regions with Data Initialization when you have write access to the Engine region of the SPI/BIOS chip. But there is no point in downgrading, as I said, because usually the problem is due to some firmware corruption which can be solved by reapplying the stock BIOS (in case it's there) or by cleaning the CSME (but you need write access for that). I suggest you rule out a hardware/peripheral or BIOS issue first because dealing with the CSME when the FD is locked can be a big pain as you can tell from [Guide] Unlock Intel Flash Descriptor Read/Write Access Permissions for SPI Servicing.

I tried to update the MEI of my Gigabyte GA-Z87X-UD3H from 9.0.30.1482 to 9.0.31.1487 but I always get an error 8714. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
You doing it right, try it under dos
I did, both with Fwupdlcl.exe and Fwupdlcl64.exe, bootstick was made with rufus 3.9. Both times it said something like "this software does not run in dos-mode".

Is noone able to help me?

@Tigerfox:
This is the way I do it, when I want to update the Intel ME Firmware:

Download and uzip the latest Intel CSME System Tools version, which matches my system.
Create a folder named "WIN64" within the root of drive C.
Copy the content of the System Tools folder FWUpdate and the desired Intel ME Firmware (as *.bin file) into the folder C:\WIN64.
Rename the Intel ME Firmware to "ME.bin" ((to make it easier to write later an error free command text).
Run the Command Prompt as Admin and navigate into the folder C:\WIN64.
Enter the following command and press the "Enter" key thereafter:
1
```
FWUpdLcl64.exe -F ME.bin
 
```
Wait until the update has been completed.
After the next reboot the updated Intel ME Firmware should be in use.
Verify it by running the MEInfo tool (can be done the same way as written above).

Good luck!

My current System:
MB: ASRock X570 Pro4, CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600, System Drive: 500 GB Samsung 980 Pro, Graphics: Sapphire Radeon RX570, OS: Win10 x64 Pro

It worked. It seems what made the difference was putting the WIN64-folder into the root of drive C instead of any other drive.

Yes I am aware, thank you. MEA shouldn't report it as "not in DB". I'm waiting for official CMP-V release (April 30th) and we need FIT v14.5 as well.

Hi, guys! I've been looking for information related to update ME for a Lenovo B590 and this brought me here. I love this thread! To start with, I've recently modded my bios, meaning I disabled whitelisting, or better said, someone else did that for me, but I wasn't totally satisfied with that. The ME version on it is 8.0.4.1441 and I want to change that. I've also been playing with UEfi tool to bring the existing bios version H1ET39WW to the latest, H1ET85WW, haven't succeeded yet, I found a thread helping me with that. So, I'll try using some updates first, taken from Lenovo website, I hope I will succeed upgrading ME version.

I hope I will succeed upgrading ME version.

All you have to do is use FWUpdate, as explained in the first post.

@Fernando Would you recommend me to install the new driver version listed in section A1/A2 or just continue with the "pure" version of ME v11.8.77.3664, which is v1914.12.0.1256? Is it better to just use only driver or software/driver?

You should update your version of ME Analyzer because an important bug was fixed and many other things are now improved.

Since these issues @gloobox sent me a working bios however my unique values were missing and Intel ME comes up as N/A.

I'm using FF editor to paste my unique values into the ROM that I flash with my programmer.

I also found a tool called MB/TXE injector.

With those two tools combined I am fully backup and running

@ass9411:
Welcome to the Win-RAID Forum!
You can do what you want, but I always install just the matching "pure" Intel ME driver and never had a problem.
By the way - the Intel ME expert is plutomaniac and not me.
