Hi guys,

Got a Dell XPS 13 notebook model 9343 and wondering if it can be NVME modded considering it only has a NGFF SATA socket and bootguard. Not familiar with flashing Dell bios files and unlocking them and not sure it would work considering the age of the notebook.

Edit: I do own a usb flash programmer if necessary.

Thank you

@davidm71 - is bootguard active/properly enabled? You can tell by MEInfoWin - verbose
check the bottom of the report on left side (FPF side), do you see Measured & Verified Boot both enabled at left/FPF Side?
If it is enabled there, then high chance you cannot modify proper section of BIOS that we'd insert NVME Mod into, it's in Cyan region of BIOS so protected by bootguard if that's setup properly

According to the feedback I got from other users with an AMD chipset mainboard the method should work as well for the ASUS M5A97 LE.
Question: Are you sure, that the modded BIOS had been successfully flashed and that you had disabled the BIOS options "Secure Boot" and "Fast Boot"? Which CSM setting did you choose?

Hi there,
Thank you for an amazing guide.
However, I still can't make my NVMe works :(

My laptop is ASUS UX501JW with HM87 chipset. My new NVMe SSD is Silicon Power P34A80 1TB (https://www.silicon-power.com/web/product-P34A80)

Here is what I did:
1. I dumped the stock BIOS with AFUWINx64.
2. Then I inserted NvmExpressDxe_4 with UEFItool.
3. I flashed the modded BIOS with AFUWINx64 then reboot.
4. I dumped again and the NVMe DXE module is there.

My NVMe SSD doesn't show in the BIOS or in the Windows 10 setup. I have AHCI on and disabled CMS, secure boot, fast boot but still no luck.

Please help me :(

Thank you for your quick response Fernando.

1. How did you connect the NVMe SSD?
Into the M.2 SSD slot (My laptop only has this one slot for hard drive).
2. Do you see a device named "PATA" within the BIOS?
I don't see it. My BIOS interface looks the same, nothing's new.

I'm not sure about that. My current drive is M.2 SSD SATA.
However, I see this user (Gnomuz) successfully made his NVMe SSD works, that's why I give it a try.
He is on this site: https://www.bios-mods.com/forum/Thread-A...-support?page=3

I used AFUWIN64 to dump the bios after I flashed the modded file, then I see the module inside the dumpped file. Does it mean it's properly flashed? Or should I flash via USB again?
The NVMe drive says NVMe 1.3. I'm not sure if it's matter.

Mine is FHD display with only one SSD. I guess I will have to return the NVMe drive then.

Thank you everyone :D

Hi all users . Please add me bios from Dell 5610 nvme support .

Sucessfully :) used hardware metod : read external programmer 25l3206e and 25l6406e and split file without otp area " last 64 byte " and use small NVMe module .

Hi Fernando.

May you check whether correctly I made additions to BIOS?

Thanks.
