@Sylar76 What's next? I want to learn how do it.

@Lost_N_BIOS Thank you!
edit:
I just update VBIOS and EFI GOP. 'vbioshsw.dat' and 'vbthsw.ffs files are extracted from ASRock H97 Anniversary. This guide from @SoniX was helpfull (ASRock motherboard owners, please read note "OROM VBIOS 2166").

@JanCerny

It seems, according to UBU log, that you've already added 40671 microcode or am I wrong ?

Anyway, after extracted microcode file, you have to insert/replace new microcodes via hex editing (I suggest you WinHEX)
and fix length with the help of Uefi Tool NE Alpha.

@JanCerny - Looks good, did you test yet?

Yes, @Sylar76, I added the ucode for him on previous page. I think he was asking you for in-depth guidance on how to do manually (The hex and FIT correction I assume), in case he want's to do later or re-do himself now and not use the file I posted
I posted links about FIT correction on my reply on previous page, maybe he missed those?

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

There is a discrepancy between last 2 screens, as UefiTool only sees 3 microcodes added, while UBU shows 4 (the latter is the new 40671 microcode).

So I think that one microcode has to be removed in order to gain space for adding the 40671 one.

Good eye, but he posted that first image and question to you by itself, long time before editing and adding second image and note to me. I assume first was original BIOS, then second image my BIOS mod later when the post was edited.
Yes, this is it, I just checked and see it's all old versions so this is why it looks strange. BIOS is fine, check the file on previous page. No need for removing one code to add another in this instance.

Yes you're right.

Not yet. I have ordered one. I am curious about crypto mining. L4 cache is supposedly efficient for mining Monero.

I need to flash the new micro-codes for my z97 asrock anniversary.
I used the latest ubu tool 1.70 rc3 without mtool because it not needs it.
Is this OK?

In a post where Fernado explains how to use ubu tool he has the photo(he use a z97 asrock):

so he must use also MMTool?

Zitat von BlackArchon im Beitrag #4297
From my last question I learned that the message "CSMCORE not found" from UBU means that it is a non-UEFI capable BIOS file, correct?
Now I opened the latest BIOS A68DYC09.BSS for a Biostar A68I-350 DELUXE R2.0 (http://www.biostar.com.tw/app/en/mb/intr...ID=618#download) and while UBU shows this messsage, it also finds EFI drivers. Why are EFI drivers within a non-UEFI BIOS?

https://imgur.com/a/n7BmcAV

With the new UBU 1.70 rc3 (instead of rc1) it correctly detects this very same BIOS as UEFI capable and lets me update the included ROMs. So this was really a problem with UBU 1.70 rc1?

I am trying again to update the bios of a Z97 motherboard and I am looking for the latest vbios/bsf files. I am also a little confused about the procedure that I need to follow. Can anyone help?

I cannot understand in my asrock z97 if i use mtool it says no enough space... if i use the new uefi replace i take mCode GUID: patchVtf: PEI Core entry point can't be found in VTF. VTF not patched.
So i am stuck...

When I updated my Disk Controller using UBUTool, I get this:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/0jzxncwfvkmmzmq/UBU1.PNG?dl=0

Do I have to worry about the "ubutool parseFile: non-empty pad-file contents will be destroyed after volume modifications" message there?

I then get this when I update my NIC:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/tc5jnk9p5yd0igu/UBU2.PNG?dl=0

Do I have to worry about that "it is possible to install up to versions..." message?
