Hi everyone,
I have a question regarding updating the Intel Management Engine on my Asus Z390-A Prime board.
I was able to successfully set up my system with Windows 7 x64, using canonkong's modified Intel chipset and USB3 drivers.
I was looking at the Asus BIOS & Firmware page, where an updated firmware for Intel ME (12.0.70.1652v3) is posted. However, the provided MEUPdateTool only works on Windows 10, including version 12 of FwUpdLcl.exe. I tried downloading the missing .dll files online and was able to run the command line tool (x86 version), but updating did not work. I am not able to use version 11 of the tool either.
Thus, is there any way to update Intel ME and is it worth the hassle? Or will it also be updated by way of future BIOS updates?
I did read through the first post, but I am not as technically savvy to understand the manual procedure.
Thanks!

The first one installed but the second one failed. There is error "The platform is not supported" (I upload the logs)

I also tried to update driver from device manager, let choose from list, there is 2 options, but both also failed after windows trying to install awhile.

What else can I do? Thanks before...

You don't need the "manual" procedure. FWUpdate tool will work just fine for you needs. Instructions are provided in the first post.

The current MEI driver reports "device failure" which usually means firmware corruption. Check firmware health via MEInfo -verbose and MEManuf -verbose first.

I read the first page again and again but still don't know what to do, it's too complicated for me... :)

The problem is I cannot run the downloaded version of FWUpdLcl, because it only runs on Windows 10. And I cannot run the earlier version (which I downloaded from the Z370-A page), because it's not compatible with v12 firmware.

Yes, the ME firmware is corrupted. It might be easy to fix it in your specific case so try the following: Download/Decompress the attachment and run Flash Programming Tool with command "fptw64.exe -me -f ME_B85M-G_3602.bin" followed by "fptw64.exe -greset". If you don't see any error, the system will reboot automatically. Afterwards, try MEInfo -verbose again.

There is no such restriction if you download the actual FWUpdate tool from the System Tools archive linked in the first post. Either way, you can use the EFI or DOS version of FWUpdate outside of Windows. I can only attest for what is provided here. If you want to use ASUS procedures for whatever reason (not needed) you need to contact them for issues/limitations they decide to impose.

Well, I downloaded CSME System Tools v12 r30 linked in post #2. FWUpdate will not run on my system (screenshot attached).
So the way to do it would be via a bootable disk with FWUpdate EFI or DOS version, and use the file ME.bin extracted from the Asus package?
I didn't find information about whether BIOS updates also include ME firmware updates - I guess I would have to ask Asus about that.

@plutomaniac Ok Thanks.

I did Unlock Intel Flash Descriptor

I've done fptw64.exe -me -f ME_B85M-G_3602.bin, followed by fptw64.exe -greset

PDR and GBE Region does not exist
Error 217: Setting Global Reset Failed

Is it ok?

At first restart Intel Management Engine Interface does not show up in the device manager, but after power off and restart it does show up.

Now, what should I do next? What MEI Driver and Software should I install?

Use FWUpdate tool under DOS or EFI. Read the first post on how to use FWUpdate tool and what firmware to use with it. It's all there.
