Everything is made on the instructions from the first post. Samsung 950 PRO 512gb (ASUS Hyper M2. X4) from the first earned as a boot disk!)) Note the following, friezes and restart after the start of "Windows 8 features" in the Bios. Another point is no support for Rapid mode. Thank you all, continue to monitor the forum!))

Its me again.

Supermicro teck contact finaly send me they new BIOS with NVME BOOT option added.
I give you it:

Maybe we can find some nice new module on it.

And you can compare with the previous bios for see the change.

I going to try it now.

I have full test this official BETA supermicro BIOS.

Its a big fail ;)

With this bios now the AHCI AND NVME SSD can be see, but stay unbootable, and worst than that: ALL DD or SSD SATA fail to boot.
The device is see on the bootable device as the SSD PCIE but the BIOS can find any file system on it.

Exactly the problem I get with my moded BIOS with added module.
But with this supermicro beta bios its fail for the other device to.

I going to report my protocol test and result to my contact in Supermicro.

Erf, complex problem.

Sorry, all the problems I had written previously in force. The problem with friezes absolutely nothing to do - inadvertently overestimated the frequency of RAM. Everything works perfectly! He did it as the first page. MSI z87 Xpower - Samsung 950 Pro 512gb. After Asus hyper m.2 x4. Thank you.

@ Profy13:
Thanks for your updated report.
Since the conclusion is not easy to understand, here are my questions:
1. Did you get full NVMe support with your MSI X87 XPOWER mainboard by simply inserting the NvmeExpressDxE.ffs module into the BIOS according to my guide (1st post)?
2. Did you find out, that your system freezings have been caused by a too strong RAM overclocking and had nothing to do with the inserted NVMe module?

Happy New year Gents,

Hi BJED, I'm new in this forum, and I'm asking if you got a solution for RIVE, I wont to instal the SAMSUNG 950 PRO 512G, boot from it and instal the win 7 64 Pro and then update to the win 10,
also there are one guy "UNOE" who said that he succeed without bios mod or update, see this link :

My time to share result, i tryed 2 modded bios the old one with 3 file inserted and the new with just one module inserted, in both scenario i was able to boot from my Samsung 950 with CSM disabled but bios didn't show the name of ssd.
Thanks you Fernando and win-raid guys for your work.

I just wanted to issue an advisory warning. After doing a few tests I don't believe Windows will install from USB key onto the nvme drive and may still need a bios prepared with the original nvme modules to install windows from usb and then the Nvme express dxe file inserted after to allow booting. I may be wrong as my Windows installer had some extra drivers slip streamed into the installation files and might have failed to install on the drive because of that but no matter which set of NVME files from a Z97 mainboard I inserted I could not get the system to install windows like I had done before. Weird.

I got E-mail from my Asus support representative and he said: "As the mainboard is older one, you most likely need to install the drivers for ssd during the installation, ( When OS is asking where you want to do the installation, there is option to set drivers for disk) Without that, it most likely does not boot from there."
So, I better buy me a Intel® SSD 750 Series (400GB, 2.5in PCIe 3.0, 20nm, MLC) and give it a go.
I´ve downloaded Intel Windows NVMe driver 1.3.0.1007 x32-x64. Is that the file /driver/ he refered to.

Thats probably why I couldn't install Windows straight from a usb key. The first time I did it I cloned the installation onto the Intel 750 after installing intel nvme drivers. After that all was needed that module inserted into bios to boot. So I would imagine I would have to slip stream NVME drivers into the Windows USB key to access the drive and install Windows. I gave up last night and put the drive back into another system but I might take a stab at it again later.


Edit: I've put the Intel 750 back into my Z68 board and no matter which bios I flashed I could not see the drive anymore in the bios boot menu as I could before. I tried reseating it and clearing cmos but nothing worked. Its back in my Z170 system where its identified as it should so I suspect something went wrong with the Z68 bios or the intel SSD has a memory in its firmware. I have no idea.
