Before you restart with your usual PC work, you should verify the full function of the updated PCI ROM module.
#Mmtool aptio 4.50.0023 tweaktown update#
If you have updated the Marvell 91xx AHCI/RAID ROM module, set the Marvell Firmware mode to 'Force', then save/apply/reboot and let it load through to windows, before that happens Marvell Firmware will update and board will reboot. Once in the BIOS again recover the previous boot settings (boot device and HDD boot order). Then turn on, boot to BIOS, load optimized, set the SATA Controller to the appropriate mode (AHCI/RAID) and save/apply/reboot back to the BIOS. This is what you should see, if your system has an Intel ICH8R, ICH9R, ICH10R, 5-Series or 6-Series chipset and you want to update the related Intel RAID ROM version: Note: The 'For Option ROM only' section only shows the VendorID and DeviceID of the RAID ROM Modul, which has been inserted by the manufacturer of the original AMI UEFI mainboard BIOS file. Hit the 'Browse' button and navigate to the Option ROM module (named xxxx.BIN) you want to get inserted and double-click onto it. Go to the 'For Option ROM only' section, check the 'Link Present' option and scroll down to the correct VendorID (8086 = Intel) and DeviceID (Example: 2822 = 'Intel(R) Desktop/Workstation/Server Express Chipset SATA RAID Controller') of your on-board RAID Controller. Highlight the line containing the Option ROM module you want to replace (it is usually the line with the CSMCORE file). Open the BIOS file and hit the 'Replace' tab of the Aptio MMTool. This is the procedure regarding the replacement of an Option ROM module. As a consequence an extracted PCI ROM file usually can be inserted into each mainboard BIOS, which already contains the same sort of PCI ROM module. Each PCI ROM module version, which has been delivered from the Controller chip vendor to the mainboard manufacturers, is identical and not dependent on the BIOS structure (AMI/Phoenix/Award) the mainboard manufacturer is using. Although the BIOS files are developed and published by the mainboard manufacturer, the inserted PCI ROM modules were made by the vendor of the related on-board Controller chips. Nevertheless it is possible to extract any PCI ROM module and to replaced it by another version, because the entire mainboard BIOS file has a modular structure.
The PCI ROM modules are within the mainboard BIOS file and only visible by opening the BIOS file with a special tool like MMTool or CBROM. That is the reason why users with an AHCI (non-RAID) system will not benefit from an update of the RAID ROM version. I am interested in pre-boot execution to obtain key/secret to unlock OPAL encrypted disk to integrate with my equipment resource managment package.The Intel SATA AHCI Controller of the mainboard is not supported at all by the RAID ROM module. I am doing this mainly to learn more about bios and modding.

I got the image file from the ASRock website from the "Instant Flash" download option of the latest (2.70) bios. I am running the tools under wine on Ubuntu 16.04. I have tried saving a file without the top Cap container and that gives the error in MMTool.Īm I using the wrong tool on this image or something else? What tool set work ASRock z97 Extreme6 images? I can open the image in UEFITool_0.22.1.exe. I think that AMIBIOS8 is "legacy", non-UEFI and would not work with MMTool, but both Aptio 4 and V are UEFI and should work with MMTool.

exe (from the above link), it fails saying "The input image is not Aptio V".įrom my research I believe that the Z97 is an Aptio 4 image but I thought that MMTool works for Aptio 4 and V. When I open the bios file for my ASRock Z97 Extreme6 MB (Z97E圆2.70) in MMTool.
