@Fernando Thank you. The original BIOS is here

Some more things regarding this topic:
1. in point 2 of the post, it says The mainboard BIOS should offer the required UEFI boot settings. I wonder what settings it is
2. in point 4 of the post, it says The on-board Intel SATA Controller should not been set to "RAID" mode within the BIOS. I have an unlocked BIOS but I don't know where it is

Flashed success but no success in BIOS booting from the M.2 SSD. I used migration tool of EaseUS to migrate the content of the original drive to the new drive. Tried CSM on / off, PXE OpROM on / off to no avail. In Chipset menu, there are PCIE express configuration, and only Port 9 have topology set as M.2. I'll use the original boot drive for now until further breakthrough. @Fernando any ideas?

Also, should be possible to view all BIOS options by just looking at the dump itself, maybe still some missing configuration to be done

I have tried CSM on / off and do not see anything in the boot order, not to mention "PATA".

I have dumped the BIOS once again to check if the NVMe module was inserted. Yes, it was, yet somehow checksum different. Maybe because BIOS settings changed

That's why we never advise cloning drives... this is a mod that fits in hundreds of motherboards and we cant expect that all of them reacts as we "expect".
The module is present in ur dumped bios region.
So take the original drive out and leave on the NVme SSD, perform a clean install according Fernando's guide, for troubleshooting. Always UEFI/GPT, never CSM ON/Auto.

@RSI68:
hi, can you please guide me to do the same as i have the same mobo. i am not able to figure the proper way of doing it. thanks

Edit by Fernando: Fully quoted post replaced by directly addressing to the author (to save space)

Try harder... as u saw, that user followed the guidance, theres only 2 ways, MMTool or UEFItool.
And since u dont share ur revision motherboard ou bios being used, no one can give more guidance than the guide on 1st post.

Hi, may I know is it okay to mod the Instant Flash bios from Asrock with the extension 10 (file type).

Thank you for any help that is available.

Yes, its OK and never flash any mods in Windows.

Everything is working now on my Asrock z77 Pro3
Thank you for the amazing guide.

Hello All,
I'm a new arrival, found my way here from the sth forum, as part of the possibility of adding nvme support to my supermicro x10drh-it motherboard, after reading about some people's success with other x10 series supermicro boards.

So far I have modded the most recent bios version with uefi tool and added the nvme ffs file in the spot I felt that the startpost describes. Now clearly, that doesn't work (can't find nvme anywhere in the boot options though the system does have an nvme pcie card and a drive installed, though it doesn't currently contain a bootable image), though the system runs fine with the modded bios, as evidenced by this post. So, most likely, I put the nvme driver in the wrong place.
The startpost references csmcore, which is something I wasn't able to find in my bios, so I tried to determine what the first dxe driver section was in the tree.
I'm hoping someone else might have some more specific guidance where exactly to place the nvme ffs file in the bios, so I can give it another go?
