I flashed that one suggested by Hancor: [OFFER] Asus P8Z68-V PRO/GEN3 BIOS/UEFI v3802

@nuovagrafica

Recovery of your old chip can also be achieved by using the following guide

[Guide] Using CH341A-based programmer to flash SPI EEPROM

Not sure what went wrong, but I'll double check the file...

Hello I solved, I bought a chip BIOS from eBay and I installed this BIOS posted by hancor [OFFER] Asus P8Z68-V PRO/GEN3 BIOS/UEFI v3802 +NVMe mod

Please can you show me with a screenshot all settings for disable the overclock
And another screenshot for decrease the cpu temperature?
I have this temperature 98* C (220* F)

yes thank you, I will try with artic silver 5 and deep cool assassin III but how can I disable the overclock in that bios?

@nuovagrafica , @hancor, @toysareforboys

Could you please move this conversation to the correct thread? It is not related to the BIOS I offered and may confuse others.

@plutomaniac would it be possible to move the posts please?

Thank you.

@Iken

That is precisely why I created the new thread... :)


Cheers

where is the new thread for overclock setting and cpu temperature please?

Thaks so much Iken, I had a p8z68-v PRO modded to support nvme, the mb died days ago.
I bought the same mb (that was the idea) from Aliexp but i received a non PRO version.
After some googleing i found your post and your directions, and now I have the nvme working again, so thank you very much !!

Glad to know I helped!

All the Best,

Hi Guys,

I am using:

ASUS P8Z68-V Rev 1.xx
i7-3770k and GTX 980
BIOS Version 3603, 09.11.2012 running Legacy
SMBIOS 2.6
WIN 10 Pro 10.0.19043

I tried to flash the bios as described above:

1. Upgraded to ME 8.1.70.1590 => worked fine
2. Extracted and copied BIOS file on FAT32 USB drive
3. Entered BIOS and then EZ Flash 2 to find BIOS on USB drive
4. EZ Flash 2 reportet that BIOS file integrity check failed (same problem as described by nuovagrafica above)

Since EZ Flash didnt work and I had a spare BIOS chip, I then tried to flash the BIOS with AFUDOS.exe (tool provided by American Megatrends to flash all sorts of their BIOS). Bricked the BIOS with that => when booting only black screen, BIOS reset also not possible.

Did I do anything wrong? Could it be that since the Motherboard doesnt report as P8Z68-V / GEN3 in WIN System Information (it identifies there as "P8Z68-V") it is an older version (not GEN3)? I assumed, since I am able to run the 3770k and GTX 980 in PCIe 3.0 mode it is GEN3.

If the BIOS provided is not the correct one for my motherboard and nobody has one modded already, I would be happy to try modding a BIOS by myself and share it here if there is any good guide. I am also interested in other changes like remove fan speed low rpm limits etc.

Thanks in advance for any help / advise!

@Asomur
Here is ur NVMe mod, ONLY for P8Z68-V (NOT the GEN3) bios 3603 (Win7/8 version).
Flashing procedures and results at UR OWN risk, as this motherboard as no USB FBF procedure for recovery.

EDIT: This is ur country restrictions, use Tor browser or VPN.
Asus has 2 bios files for download, one for XP/Vista and another for 7/8.

NVMe Support for old Systems

Thanks MeatWar! Good to know that my motherboard is not the GEN3. Could you check the link again please? My browser gives back Error Message "403 Forbidden" when using it. What does it mean for me that the BIOS you suggest is "WIN 7/8 version"?

I am aware of the risk, thank you for mentioning it again! I will need to get another BIOS chip first or the tools to flash the one I bricked when not plugged in to the motherboard.

Is there any description of the process to mod my BIOS by myself? Maybe it is feasible to change/add exactly the same stuff that Iken changed?

Hi Ken,

Thanks for this great update and the immense work put into this legacy board. I managed to upgrade the Intel ME fw via dos and the Bios via ez flash and was able to reinstall Windows now on a GPT disk. The only issue I’m having is when I switch the PCI Rom Priority to EFI compatible, the display immediately goes to sleep. I have it connected to a RX570 card and here are my settings: imgur(.)com/a/DSeT9R0 . At the moment, i hv reset the bios and left it with Legacy. Any advise if there are other settings that need to be configured so I can enable EFI compatible?
