just one question so i can troubleshoot other things, my Question is: Does ME have to do anything with PCi-E speeds? do ME can cause slow or bugged out pci-e speeds like the one am having now , instead of16x gettting only 2x? just want to know so ican start to downgrade if ME has anything to do with pci-e sometimes
because as you can see, am only getting 2x speed on my pci-e 16x ... do you think ME engine could be the harm of it all?
@akbaar - Did you update ME FW with ME FW update tool FWUpdLcl.exe? If yes, should be OK, but yes, it's possible that some bug in that ME FW, and or driver package. You may not be able to downgrade without unlocked FD or flash programmer either. If you did not update ME FW with FWUpdLcl.exe what exactly did you do, and how did you flash in the ME FW?
Pull out your card and blow the slot clean, clean the gold fingers on the card to be sure clean and reinsert, sometimes this helps. Also, I'd clear CMOS, reload optimal defaults in BIOS, save and reboot back to BIOS then make any other changes you want. So, to answer you generally, yes, sometimes, but it would be unusual and you'd see others complaining about it where you download the ME FW/Driver package.
Please don't send PM's for help on BIOS edits, I can't help with BIOS in PM's. Please make a thread and I will try to help as soon as I can - thanks! If you appreciate my efforts and are willing to donate to help improve my hardware, gift cards work for me (Amazn, NuEgg, eBa) - send me a PM I view the forum like this, please bump your thread 1x every 24-48 hours if no reply
Make sure that the CPU and GPU are seated properly (re-seat them) and that their sockets/slots are clean. You can use a can of compressed air for such cleaning. Download the latest SPI/BIOS image from ASUS, remove the AMI Capsule at the top via UEFITool NE and flash the output via the programmer, effectively re-applying the latest stock BIOS/CSME firmware from ASUS. Check if the problem is gone. If yes, proceed with updating the CSME firmware via FWUpdate tool. It should still be ok.
By the way, if you want to ask for help here, I expect you (and everyone else for that matter), to use the firmware, tools and instructions provided here. Not SD or other random sites because I don't know what they package, what custom batch scripts they include etc.
