@Hitman23db:

Losing the ability to change the multiplier is indeed caused by corrupted ME most of the times. However, the errors that you are getting at the first images are all due to missing files. Download MEInfo, MEManuf & FPT from this thread and keep all files, not just the exe. I know that the tools are not from this thread because you are running MEInfo v8.1.20 and MEManuf v8.1.10 which are both a lot older than the ones I provide.

By the way, your latest BIOS has this ME inside:



Just by this, you probably have an unlocked Flash Descriptor which, in case the ME is indeed corrupted, is the key to getting it fixed. First, run the tools properly though.

The files that say they cannot be found are in the folders but I'm still getting file not found when running MEManuf and fptw64.

Are these MEI Firmware modules compatible with Laptops? My current fw version is 10.0.30.1072 LP. Its a Dell XPS 13. My gut is telling me not to try to attempt it as it wouldn't work..?

@burner07 :

I tend to answer such questions via the forum so that other people can benefit from the answers and not repeat the same questions. So:

Regarding possible firmware updates:

Each Intel platform has one major version of ME firmware. ME9.5 is not an updated ME9.1 firmware because they target different platforms. ME8 for 7-series, ME9.0 for 8-series, ME9.1 for 9-series/X99, ME9.5 for Mobile Lynx Point 8-series etc...

Rule of Thumb: Whatever major & minor ME firmware version you have now (example: v9.5.x.xxxx), update to the latest version of that combo available here.

ME10 that you asked for is for Mobile Broadwell systems only. Different platform, different firmware.

ME Firmware v6.x is for 5-series systems
ME Firmware v7.x is for 6-series systems
ME Firmware v8.x is for 7-series systems
ME Firmware v9.0 is for 8-series systems
ME Firmware v9.1 is for 9-series/X99 systems
ME Firmware v9.5 is for Mobile Lynx Point systems
ME Firmware v10.0 is for Mobile Broadwell systems

There are 2 exceptions regarding ME7 --> ME8 and ME9.0 --> 9.1 upgrades but they a) do not concern your system and b) do not break the Rule of Thumb as described above.

Regarding possible driver updates:

Drivers are more universal, the latest drivers (v10.0) support all platforms from 5-series and up.

Regarding benefits of updating ME firmware:

ME is responsible for a lot of parts of an Intel system which generally have to do with Control, Security, Responsiveness, Manageability, Media etc. More specifically: System Clocks, Overclocking, Thermal Monitoring, Fan Control, Silicon Workaround, Active Management Technology, Antitheft Technology, Rapid Start Technology, Smart Connect Technology, Wireless Display etc. Check the intro of the thread for more info.

Special shout-out to Station-Drivers & Pacman for all the updates and help maintaining this thread.

@lordkag :

It's funny, Pacman asked me the exact same question today and I don't blame you guys. Here is my reply:



I will release the firmware repository and ME Analyzer very shortly (ASAP) and the latter will be Open Source. Before I received the pm of a reply here I was in the middle of creating the Firmware Repository:



SPS Firmware is currently not supported by ME Analyzer and the main reason is that I don't know how it is structured yet. It seems to have a 128KB Recovery image, no idea if there are different SKUs etc. Such firmware is also given by Intel via server UEFI updates at ME.cap files but even after removing the cap it's kind of a mess. I don't know if these are special update files or so but the $MN2 regions are all over the place with random "junk" in between, the FPT header is not in the beginning etc. Images extracted from SPI images or by the 1 leaked kit are easier to understand and more familiar. I have only v3.x tools so far (spsFitc etc) and these firmware (there are more but I haven't really been looking for them):



Until we research SPS more I cannot add it here. Afterwards, of course. For now ME Analyzer will show only basic info regarding SPS and a non-supported error:



It's python v3 and I'm using colorama which is very easy to import and use:



For example the red SPS error shown above is written like this:
