@ektorasdj - Sorry for the forced recovery, I didn't expect that! It's not a waste of time, I only mentioned to let you know it's time consuming mod to do, only because of your BIOS layout.... And I wanted a beer right then

Nothing to worry about, some mods I do take 8-10+ hours sometimes to figure out how to do one thing.
Sounds like it needs modified differently since it failed, or I made simple mistake maybe! There is a few ways to do this, I picked the easier of the two, but either way takes time and just depends on how often you do it, as to how long it takes.
Seems your BIOS needs the other way, or possibly the way I did would work if I switched those OEM module numbers back (Possibly, I did consider that could be an issue, maybe more-so than I expected
)
The new Qflash can't be compressed to exactly same size as the old (if only life could be that easy!), it's 3 bytes less no matter how I compress it, Dummy.bin is inserted in place of the original Qflash, to maintain the exact location of the sensitive module below it (GV3-PPMINIT)
Due to that, and reinsertion of new Qflash, is the reason why there is now one additional module.
So, if you want, I can make you two more BIOS, one with new Qflash having same OEM module #, and another using other method instead of this one. I don't like to be beat by a BIOS, so I will probably make you both (as in right now
)
Before I make the other BIOS, try this quick fix one and see if it works or not (sorry, but be ready to recover again) - This is similar BIOS, but I did do a fresh rebuild and put the Qflash module back to OEM0 instead of OEM4
If it fails too, I will do the other way instead (extract all modules below Qflash, and replace one by one after dummy insert) Qflash Checksum will be 3100, but I think you will have to flash via DOS (always the case when Qflash version changes)

Yes, microcode updates is easy, the only issue here is the Qflash change due to it's location above a sensitive module.
AHCI Rom change will require similar edit as the Qflash module, since it's above GV3-PPMinit too - I've not seen anyone confirm, or even mention, that 2.00is any better or faster than 1.20E
