Hello everyone. I would like to request (if possible) an HPET on/off option for my custom z87x-ud3h bios


i would be eternaly grateful for this

@pepeo - This is bad mod, are you sure you want me to edit on top of badly modified BIOS? One padding file removed, 2 x alignment issues, all due to microcode edit incorrectly
If you've already flashed this BIOS, and it boots OK, then those things may be fine for this BIOS. Could cause issues later, but not sure, usually would = bricked BIOS if it's going to be a problem.
If that is all you modified in this BIOS, then I will redo using stock F11c, and update the microcodes properly myself.

As for the HPET request, do you have to have this visible, or would hard disable be OK? hard disable is easy for me to do, takes about 15 minutes
But if you want this visible it will take me a few hours to do, because I will have to replace some setting which you do not currently use, or one you cannot see, with the High Precision Timer setting.
If you must have it visible, please show me image of root of "Advanced CPU Core Settings" page top to bottom, you can use F12 to screenshot to USB, then put in max compressed zip. I think I can find setting on this page that is hidden from you, to swap in setting.
Just in case there is not ideal choice there, please also include screenshots of "BIOS Features" page top to bottom

Hey thank you very much for your anwser. The bios was not moded by myself, i actually just got it from the offer section, because i needed the nvme boot functionality. If im not asking much, if i upload a stock f11 bios, could you put the nvme boot functionality and the HPET on off toggle option? you dont need to replace microcode or anything, i would even preffer if you let it the old stock ones because of the (even if minimal) performance hits.

Thank you again, is there any way i could repay you? donation, steam gift, whatever, i really am very grateful for this

@pepeo - I have stock BIOS, I will make you proper NVME mod BIOS + Update microcodes myself, that way I'm not editing on top of badly modified BIOS
Ohh, you want stock microcodes, OK, I will do just NVME edit + the setting swap. Please put those images into a max compressed zip, thanks!
Yes, thanks for asking, I will shoot you a PM

Love this BIOS GUI!!! Makes me miss using my Z87MX-D3H

@pepeo - Thanks. You can delete those if you want, saves some space on the server
Zip can be uploaded and attached here, but it has to be under 6MB
* Edit, Ohh, I see the issue! Yes, .7z can't be uploaded, I use it too, that would need to be renamed extension is all

* Edit - @pepeo - OK, I will put HPET at the following location >>
Advanced CPU Core Settings >> Will replace hidden option and then make the setting visible >> Real-Time CPU Ratio Control In OS

Thats awesome, i didnt even know those mobos had hidden options lol

Yes, often lots hidden, but in Gigabyte not too much usually (at least not too much that's worth using anyway)
------------------------------

@pepeo - Sorry for the delay, this kind of setting swap around edit takes some time to do as I mentioned initially
Flash via Qflash - http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=03382849365243149209 << Nuke this, missed an unsuppression I blame the >>

Thats awesome, thank you very much. I will be running some hpet tests later today.
--------------------

I flashed the bios and everything is fine, but theres no hpet option on the CPU advanced tab. Is there something i need to to to show it?

@pepeo - You're welcome, and sorry about that! As soon as you mentioned I immediately knew what happened!
I worked so hard on doing the setting swap in one module, I forgot to unsuppress it in setup as I did the setup swap edits!
Here you go, fixed - http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?fil...290163874143212

Just an update, i flashed the bios now and i still cant see the option, maybe you uploaded the wrong file?

@pepeo - Sorry, let me check again! The issue may be something else, such as wrong page ID (I stalled on this for a second, wasn't sure if needed changed) I'm used to swapping in menus/submenus this way, not often "settings"
Just to be sure, while I looked this over and make new edit possibly. Please reflash both BIOS I sent you, one at a time, and after each flash >>
Shut down, clear CMOS, boot back to BIOS, load optimized defaults, save/apply/reboot back to BIOS, then look in Advanced CPU Core Settings and see if you see "High Precision Timer"

Thanks, will do now, will report in few mins

Sorry! If I can't sort in next few edits, I will get out my Z87MX and do same edit, so i can get it sorted on my end

Hey no problem, sorry about the incovenience. I tried the instructions you posted above and no luck, both bios, both clear cmos from cold boot, 2 times each to make sure, still cant see it.
