@belfort33 - That BIOS in thread you linked is not for your board. I can make you BIOS with HPET disabled, and I can do it on the latest BIOS if you want (and put in whatever older microcode you want, so no Spectre/meltdown fix)
But yes, wow, no matter what you do, you should be running much newer BIOS, if not the latest (suggested) - 1.0 BIOS is 2+ years old, many fixes (Security, bugs etc), stability/compatibility improvements etc since then

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

@belfort33 - Yes, sorry, I thought that was Gaming Carbon or some other model when I looked and replied the other day, sorry for my confusion
So, BIOS you need with HPET disabled is already done and modified there at post #8, you can use that, flash it via M-Flash.
Wait, you want old microcodes, I will have to make you new one if you want pre-spectre/meltdown microcodes.

Bummer never mind >> i5-9600K = P0 (QQPL, SRELU) / R0 (QRNE, SRG11)
There are no pre-spectre microcodes for the following CPUIDs;
906EC Coffee Lake Refresh-S, Coffee Lake Refresh-S Xeon E (P0)
906ED Coffee Lake Refresh-S, Coffee Lake Refresh-S Xeon E (R0)
Per chinobino's Microcode repo for this - [OFFER] Intel CPU Microcode Archives

So, yes, you can go ahead and use that BIOS from post #8 in the link, it has HPET hard disabled.

Sorry, I can't take paypal, but I will send you info in PM on how to send gift my way if you want
