There is a proposal. Do all the updates you need and put the file. I will return _FIT_ back. After flash the BIOS and report the result. If everything goes well, I'll write instructions on how to solve this problem.

Hey SoniX, thanks for the quick reply. I attached the modded BIOS with the latest microcode and Lan EFI.

I just used MMTool 4.50.0.23 to check the BIOS image I created with UBU 1.70.a16 Dev and the patched MMTool 5.02.0024. Everything looks good to me (see image below). Try recreating your image using the patched MMTool 5.02.0024; other than that it may be a quirk with your particular MB/BIOS.

Thanks for checking! Unfortunately with UBU v1.70 a16 Dev / (patched) MMTool 5.2.0.24 I get the same result as before: In MMTool 4.50.0.23 Ivy Bridge CPUID 306A9 (microcode 1F) only shows up.
Checksums MMTool 5.2.0.24 (original):
MD5: 9ab78d9bd2a417bb9308b3d3cc6fef59
SHA-1: fba82bd83c603700e6763ed8a9c5633980822c21
Checksums MMTool 5.2.0.24 (patched):
MD5: c6fc1435cbde2636b33e4f7ee444a079
SHA-1: 8e54ac68de355e1031527b89c0560ae1c9c8c508 (like yours, so I think I patched properly)

I'm fine with the result of UBU v1.69.16 / MMTool 5.0.0.7 and won't further investigate the matter.

Just wanted to report:

Computer:
Acer Veriton M2610G
Intel i5-2320
BIOS Version P01-B1 from 06/18/2012

Updated every available module with newest UBU and patched MMTool 5.2.0.24

System runs stable without any problems. Only a visual bug in Win10 taskmanager: It shows all cores at 100% all the time. CPUID HWMonitor shows real load without that bug.

@Sonix,
@Fernando
Please, can you explain in detail how to use to use the option 'Modules\IRST\User' ?
I have tried to guess what to do exactly with the 2 files recommended by Fernando (links), but my imagination is limited.
It will be preferable to have a detailed working example.
Maybe killkernel did something wrong, on my side i did not succeed to use this option.

@100PIER

Hello 100PIER! I've downloaded Intel RST(e) RAID ROM v16.0.2.3402 from AHCI & RAID ROM Modules and Intel RST(e) EFI "RaidDriver" v16.0.2.3402 (without header) from Intel EFI "RaidDriver" and "GopDriver" BIOS Modules and copied them into the 'Modules\IRST\User' path in UBU's folder.
When UBU processed the BIOS for my motherboard, to update the EFI/RAID OROMs i've chosen the option "U" because in the menu has appeared with the OROM versions as this:

Intel RST OROM and EFI SataDriver

1 - Update to v11.2.0.1527 only OROM
2 - Update to v11.6.0.1702
3 - Update to v12.9.0.2006
4 - Update to v13.1.0.2126
5 - Update to v13.2.2.2224/13.2.0.2134
6 - Update to v13.5.0.2164
7 - Update to v14.8.2.2397
8 - Update to v15.1.0.2545
9 - Update to v16.0.1.3339
U - Update to EFI v16.0.2.3402OROM v16.0.2.3402
0 - Exit to Main Menu

All went fine without errors, flashed the BIOS but when i choose RAID option from storage section on next machine boot the relative RAID setup menu didn't appear...

Regards,
KK

@Fernando, @killkernel
Thanks for your comments.
Finally I do succeed BIOS update for OROM/EFI.
I had missed to rename the OROM original filenames. After renamed it, the UBU process is OK:
BEFORE: PENDING: AFTER:

I have not flashed yet the modded BIOS because this new (Z370) PC configuration is on going.

I had previously written asrock x99 apito 5 microcoding replacement after not seeing the version.
It is not visible because I use an ES processor and UBU has cleared ES microcodes.

After update microcod
Cleaned --> Haswell-EP v3 ES/ES2 = cpuid 306F1
Cleaned --> Broadwell-EP v4 ES0/ES2 = cpuid 406F0
Haswell-EP v3 preQS/QS/OEM/retail = cpuid 306F2
Broadwell-EP v4 preQS/QS/OEM/retail = cpuid 406F1

I would suggest to please keep ES codes.

@Sonix
I used the UEFI BIOS Updater Update v1.70 a16 Dev with MMTool v4.50.0.23 to try and update the venerable but older ASUS ROG G74Sx laptop bios v204 for microcode ONLY.
The CPU is the i7-2630QM, affectionately known as Sandy Bridge with CPUID of 206A7, platform 12, as per the March 6th, 2018 Intel guidance the final production microcode is 0x2D.

Post mod Offset Mod Final

Before and after bios uploaded for your review. The only marked difference so far is the size of the cpu microcode changes from 0x2000 to 0x3000 but the offset is showing as correct and the GUID before and after is identical.

Is this bios ready to flash and "good to go"...?

I do not recommend using UBU to update any modules.

@hancor
If I understand correctly, you have a notebook. You just need to update only 1 desired microcode using the "M" option.
You do not need the other microcodes.

@Sonix

Okay went through it again using the "M" option and yielded identical results by using a single microcode to manually update.
I did notice that the microcode files themselves are different sizes; the old 8 KB and the new 12 KB so that may account for the
size increasing from 0x2000 to 0x3000. We'll see if there is indeed a performance hit on this old Sandy Bridge laptop.

It would appear the tool functioned correctly in "AUTO mode" as the GUID and offsets before and after are still the same using the manual method.

Cheers
