Zitat von Lost_N_BIOS im Beitrag #4884So I need to find an m.2-Pcie adapter to put it in a pcie slot?
@sinchross - Move it to an x8 or x16 slot
@sinchross:
Welcome to the Win-RAID Forum!
Yes, you need a PCIe Gen3 x4 connection to get the possible performance of the NVMe SSD.
Good luck!

@sinchross - Yes, as mentioned above, sorry I didn't mention this, assumed you already had it in an adapter.
@Fernando
Thanks for your suggestion. I have done the following:
1) Used the Original BIOS ( A2KT66A25 @ https://support.lenovo.com/au/en/downloads/ds035724 )
2) Modified it using UEFITool_v0.26.0 to add NvmExpressDxe_4.ffs![]()
![]()
3) In elevated cmd: using AFUWINx64 v3.05.04 (and also v5.05.04 from ASUS thread) to perform ANY command gives "46 - Error: Problem getting flash information"
Using the AFUWINx64 which comes with the Original BIOS (v5.09.02.1384.07.B612.LV) will work for flashing original bios, extracting installed flash. But running flashing modded bios after original bios gives error: "3 - Error: ROM file size does not match existing BIOS size."![]()
I have also tried extracting the body of the original CAP BIOS (using UEFITOOL), flashing goes further but: "18 - Error: Secure Flash Rom Verify fail."
And Same error flashing a modded BIOS using "AFUWINx64 extracted.rom /O"![]()

Thank you for modding H87M-Pro 2102.
Unfortunately it doesn't work after flashing: no boot, no screen, no beep. I was forced to return to the original 2102.
What I'm doing wrong?
@Uhu24 - did you flash it from USB Flashback? I assume you mean this BIOS, it looks to be confirm OK and working
[Guide] How to get full NVMe support for all Systems with an AMI UEFI BIOS (214)
Of course it was flashed from USB Flashback. Meanwhile I've modded an original 2102 Bios myself with the help of the excellent guide. After flashing I'll inform the community about success or failure.
Thank you so much Fernando for this detailed instruction! It worked for my AMD MoBo Gigabyte F2A88X-D3H perfectly. I used latest available BIOS form manufacturer version F7. Still it did not support NVMe. So i integrated NvmExpressDxe_4.ffs driver using UEFITool. And flashed it directly form BIOS utility Q-flash. After reboot system started to boot from NVMe drive Plextor 256GB PCIE SSD with no issues.
Hello everybody!
I am interested to boot Windows 10 on my Lenovo ThinkCentre M83 Tower from an M.2 HP EX950 SSD.
As there is no dedicated M.2 port, I planned to use the SSD plugged into PCI-e <-> M.2 adapter.
I believe, however, that the BIOS does not support NMVe. So I find this thread very interesting.
As the tread is very long, I am not sure if this problem was discussed:
if I follow your procedure, will my Windows product key still be stored in BIOS, as it is now?
@Freeman14:
Welcome to the Win-RAID Forum and thanks for your feedback!
It is fine, that you succeeded by just following my guide.
@glorifyday:
Welcome to the Win-RAID Forum!
If you want help regarding the question whether the latest BIOS for your Lenovo system natively supports NVMe, you should either attach that BIOS (as *.ZIP or *.RAR archive) or post a download link to it.
By the way: The stored Windows product key will not get lost by the insertion of the NVMe BIOS module.

Hi Fernando, I'm new to the forum, I didn't know where to say HI, :)
I Have a question, that maybe you can answer, I saw that Hancor created a modded updated BIOS with NMVE support for the Motherboard MAXIMUS VI FORMULA BIOS 1603, my question is, is this file also valid for a MAXIMUS V FORMULA with BIOS 1603? I just happen to have this motherboard and I would like to upgrade to an NMVE ssd. Or I have to create a new BIOS for my MAXIMUS V motherboard?
Thanks!
