@Paint Okay the update is complete...

from: 1.67.0.15.50 to 1.69.0.15.50

wow! I am trying it now.

Just to confirm, I need to flash this bios with the ati-flash tool and make sure the atikmdag-patcher.exe says already patched (this might not necessary)?

If the flash goes poorly after a reboot, I just flip my the BIOS switch on my GPU to boot and then switch it back after I am booted (???) to restore that "failed" bios?

Sorry, I've done a lot of BIOS modding - not a lot of GPU modding.

Thank you again!

@Paint This is a modified version of amdvbflash! (cmd.exe)

If you only have one GPU in the system then:
amdvbflash.exe -f -p 0 RX590_originalBios_updGOP.rom

Flash worked fine.... Now i have to clear my bios settings so that I can test without csm enabled....

Unfortunately, this didnt fix my problem. I still need to have CSM enabled in order for the GPU to boot into Windows 7 (CSM disabled, UEFI for everything).

With the IPMI interface/on-board VGA still enabled, it unfortunately takes over as the only GPU for Windows (even though I have GPU set to offboard in the bios).

Therefore, I need to enable CSM in my BIOS for my GPU to get the hint to be primary
This leaves me blind going from half the boot of the X10-SRL-F BIOS, to the windows boot animation, to boot-up.

Luckily I can still use the SOL through IPMI interface to view whats going on and edit the bios.....

Thanks for trying, @Ruin !

****** UPDATE ******

well after all that work, I fixed it by enabling DUAL mode in the BIOS and changing UEFI as the first priority. Everything works as it should now.

Hi @Ruin , need ur help. i found this bios @techpowerup and it work fine on my vega56. when i tried to update latest GOP this error came out. "No EFI ROM found!". here the vbios. thanks

hi @paih85

This could be an older BIOS.
Usually the EFI v2.0.0.0 is contained in vega.

I would recommend you to update your original bios.
Or to take a newer from the same manufacturer.

What is your Vega card?

@Paint windows 7 cant boot with csm disabled. Only windows 8 can boot with csm disabled.
Windows 7 need csm, even if you install windows in uefi mode.

interesting. My system would boot just fine and the ASPEED GPU/IPMI KVM interface would be active - only the GPU would not be active.

I had to actually change the startup from UEFI or LEGACY to DUAL. I then put the UEFI items first. This fixed the problem overall.

According to the discussion in this article
Using the VEGA 64 PRO BIOS results in less performance gain than the "VEGA FE 8G BIOS".

I've had problems flashing an Asrock Vega 56 with the most recent GOPUpd version (reference model, which was flashed with the reference AMD Vega 64 VBIOS). I've tried to update and flash the Vega FE 8 GB VBIOS and used GOPUpd v1.9.6.5.k mod v0.4.5 to update the file which went fine with some padding messages, but the PC wouldn't boot after a restart and the debug LED shows error code "97". All VBIOS files were from TPU. I also tried the Vega FE VBIOS from jordanpchome above, the same result. I've used atiflash 293 with the usual -f -p 0 command from a command prompt under windows with Administrator rights.

Thankfully I've had a backup which I made with an older program and GOP version. Also the unmodified Vega 56 file flashed and works fine.

Any ideas what went wrong?

Edit: Here is the output for the Vega FE BIOS

Do you want to update GOP to 2.15.0.17.10? Y for yes or N for no: y

Fixing ID for EFI image. No checksum correction is needed.

Removing unnecessary end padding.

Data after ROM and not part of EFI! Please report it!

Recovering extra data at the same offset 0x20000.


File "VegaFE_updGOP.rom" with updated GOP 2.15.0.17.10 was written!

Comparing the Vega FE VBIOS from jordan with the one I found at TPU, I see different sizes, AMD build and changelist infos and the checksums are different, too. This implies that his file is based on a much newer build, or am I mistaken?

Edit: I now tried with a saved original file for the Vega 64 from the cloud, and modded it. This time I not only set the PSU to off but also unplugged the power cable and the Vega 64 VBIOS with the newest GOP file now works as expected - maybe something went wrong in my flashing procedure or my card refuses to take the Vega FE VBIOS.

I just wanted to stop by and say thank you! My GTX 1070 would not boot unless in CSM mode, but after following the instructions, I can now boot in UEFI mode! Really appreciate it!
