ohhh damn ... and you dont have any idea to open an MSI BIOS? .... have searched the www the last 6 hours, and was found some pages but not really helpful .... with MMTool2 i can open them, i found this idea on a other forum BUT
MMTool.2.22.1 is only a LITE version and there you cant change any ID or something! .. maybe this helps you ;P ... THX

btw maybe thats easier with the second controller on my MOBO thats a JMB322
my new raid/sas card is ROCKETRAID 2740 with MARVEL 9485 chipset, but with them it is harder i think ...

.. or you have any other idea to make a windows 7 system at RAID0 with 2 SSD´s with TRIM support?

I just wanted to say, you do not have to rename, from drop down list pick all files. There is something about this BIOS file, tried everything an get error, all BIOS for this board.

I had no problem open new X79 BIOS for MSI, so it has to do with your BIOS file, that it not open.

Hope Fern can help and you can open.

@ mnmlix:
This is what I found out until now:

The BIOS of your mainboard is an AMI non-UEFI one. That means, that the "normal" (=non-UEFI) AMI MMTool usually should be able to open and to modify it. This will only work after having renamed the BIOS to "*.ROM".
After having opened the BIOS file with a hex editor I suspect, that the failure while trying to open it with the MMTool may be caused by some bytes, which have been added by MSI to prevent any modification. Although I have tried to find these bytes, I didn't yet succeed. My idea is to remove the related bytes, then to open and to modify the leftover with the AMI MMTool and - as last step - to readd the previously removed bytes, but I neither know, if I am right, nor if it would work, if I should be right.

Hey Fern, My bad, didn't know non uefi would need the rom.

AFAIK no X58 board has an UEFI BIOS.
So I think, that you have to use the old (non-UEFI) AMI MMTool v3.26.

It must be the version MM tool I have, that is the error I got when trying to open your BIOS, or actually, I tried to open all the older ones to see if it was just the new one, but all had the same error for me.
