List of file formats - Wikipedia
Then navigate to the folder, where the related BIOS file is located. BIOS files with a "standard" suffix (like *.rom, *.bin, *.cap etc.), will be found and listed automaticly by the UEFITool. If the BIOS file has a non-standard suffix, you have to change the "BIOS image files" option at Sep 12, · Good morning/evening! I explain here step by step how to modify your notebook BIOS to unlock hidden functions for an UEFI AMI Aptio4 BIOS. This Tutorial was made using an MSI GS60 2QE Ghost Pro 4K, with MSH5 Motherboard (HM87), but it should be the same for other models carrying AMI This is a list of file formats used by computers, organized by type.

While Advanced Host Controller Interface AHCI interface has the benefit of legacy software compatibility, it does not deliver optimal performance when an SSD is connected via PCI Express bus. Such an interface has some inherent inefficiencies when applied to SSD devices, which behave much more like DRAM than like spinning media.
At a high level, the basic advantages of NVMe over AHCI relate to its ability to exploit parallelism in host hardware and software, manifested by differences in depth of command queues, interrupts processing, the number of uncacheable register accesses etc.
Everything seems to be prepared for a drastical SSD performance boost by the upcoming new data transfer standard named NVMe: The latest Windows Operating Systems from Win8. Nearly all mainboard manufacturers are meanwhile offering new BIOS versions with full NVMe support for their mainboards with an Intel 9-Series or X99 Chipset.
Many consumer SSDs with NVMe support are already available or will be available soon. There is no doubt, that users with an up-to-date mainboard, whose original BIOS contains the required NVMe modules, ami bios rom file download, will benefit from the performance boost initiated by a new NVMe supporting SSD. But: What about Intel or AMD Chipset Series mainboards with an AMI UEFI BIOS, but without native NVMe support given by the mainboard manufacturer?
Is it possible to give them the required NVMe support by modding the BIOS? If yes, which modules have to be inserted and how has it to be done? These were the main questions, when I started this thread in April Although we do not yet know everything, we made in December big progress in finding answers to the related questions. That is why I have completely updated the below part of this start post.
the boot sector usually requires a special mainboard BIOS EFI modulewhich has to be loaded while booting, ami bios rom file download. Note: Some NVMe SSDs like Samsung's Pro SSD are natively bootable in LEGACY mode CSM and loading of Option ROMs has to be enabled within the BIOSbecause their Controller chip contains its own NVMe supporting Option ROM module. These are the best pre-conditions for a successful implementation and configuration of an NVMe SSD as bootable system drive: The desired OS should be Win10 due to its native NVMe support.
The mainboard BIOS should offer the required UEFI boot settings. It should be possible to get a modded BIOS successfully flashed into the system's BIOS chip. The on-board Intel SATA Controller should not been set to "RAID" mode within the BIOS. xx or 7-Zip from v18xx up to be able to unzip the offered RAR archives! A mainboard with an AMI Aptio UEFI BIOS An up-to-date BIOS for the related mainboard original or already pre-modified An appropriate UEFI BIOS modding tool.
These are the alternatives: a AMI's Aptio UEFI MMTool best choice for AMI Aptio IV BIOSes: v4. Tips: Do a Google search for "MMTool Aptio 4. Attention: The UEFITool should not be used, if the opened BIOS contains one or more listed "Pad Files". A possible BIOS modding issue removal of a natively present "Pad File" is caused by a wrong BIOS configuration and not by the UEFITool. An appropriate EFI NVME BIOS module, which has to be inserted into the "DXE Driver Volume" of the mainboard's UEFI BIOS.
ffs" contains just the required code to support booting off an NVMe SSD and should be taken, if there is not enough space available within the BIOS resp. Both NVMe modules have been successfully tested. Credits go a to the EDK2 Team resp. Since these special NVMe modules worked ami bios rom file download now with all tested mainboards, whose BIOS is an AMI UEFI one, ami bios rom file download, there is no doubt for me, that it will properly work with your special mainboard UEFI BIOS as well.
CAP BIOS. CAP file, doing a right-click onto the "AMI Aptio Capsule", choosing the "Extract body ROM file. Unzip the downloaded AMI Aptio MMTool resp. the UEFITool and the chosen NvmExpressDxE module into the "Source BIOS" folder.
BIOS modification: a Guide for the usage of AMI's MMTool 4. Click onto the "Load Image" button and navigate to the folder, where the source BIOS is located. After having double-clicked onto the BIOS file, which you want to get modified, you will see a picture similar to this one: Scroll down within the great MMTool window until you find the module with the FileName "CSMCORE".
Click onto the line with the FileName "CSMCORE". After having done that, the number of the Volume will be shown within the box named "Vol. Index" in the upper part of the MMTool GUI. Here is the related picture of my test BIOS: In my test BIOS it was the Volume "1", but this is just an example. In other BIOSes the CSMCORE module ami bios rom file download be within a Volume with another number e. Since the CSMCORE module is present within nearly all AMI UEFI BIOSes and always located within the DXE Volume, where the NVMe module has to be inserted, you are now within the target Volume.
Note: In the very rare case, that the MMTool doesn't show any module named "CSMCORE", you should scroll down the MMTool window with the listed modules ami bios rom file download you find the first ones with the letters "DXE" within its name. This way you can be sure, that you are within the correct "DXe Driver Volume", where the NVMe module has to be inserted. Insertion of the NVMe module Make sure, that the correct DXE Driver Volume number usually with the CSMCORE module within it has been written into the Vol.
Index box. Click onto the "Insert" tab on the on-top MMTool menu bar. ffs file is located. ffs file you want to get inserted. Now you will see a picture like this: You can choose within the "Insert FFS Options" area of the MMTool GUI, ami bios rom file download, whether you want to get the previously chosen module inserted "as it is" normal option or in "compressed" form option in case of limited space within the DXE Volume.
Note: Don't touch the "For Option ROM only" area of the MMTool GUI! Now you can click onto the "Insert" button, which is on the upper right hand side below the "Browse" button see above picture. After having done that, the insertion of the desired NVMe module should be done automaticly and correctly by the MMTool.
Note: If the MMTool should not be able to insert the desired module properly, the MMTool will give you a meaningful error message e. In this case you should try to get the "small" variant of the NVMe module in "compressed" form inserted. RAR archive file if it should be bigger sized than 6 MB, post the download link. Then we will try to help you.
As final step you have to store the modded BIOS: Click onto the button "Save Image as Now you have stored your modded BIOS within the related folder. Verification of the successful insertion Open the modded BIOS as written above by running the MMTool. Scroll down the content of the MMTool window showing the various modules of the DXE Volume ami bios rom file download the CSMCORE is located until you come to bottom of that Volume. A picture like this is the proof, that the NVMe module has been successfully inserted: Warning: Very rarely even AMI's AptioIV MMTool may touch a "Pad-file" of the BIOS while executing its NVMe module insertion task.
To avoid later problems after having flashed the modded BIOS, I recommend insistently to compare the ami bios rom file download "DXE Driver Volume" of the original and the just modified BIOS regarding the presence and location of Pad-files by using the UEFITool the MMTool doesn't show the "Pad-files".
The best visual way for such comparison is to open the original and modded BIOS side by side. All other listed modules and Pad-files should stay untouched by the BIOS modification. If you should realize, that ami bios rom file download natively present Pad-file module is missing within the modded BIOS or a natively not present Pad-file has been added within the modded BIOS, post a report into this thread, but don't flash this modded BIOS!
If everything looks fine, you can be sure, that the related module has been properly inserted into the correct GUID section, and you can save the modded BIOS and give it an appropriate name and suffix usually similar to the original BIOS. b Guide for the usage of the UEFITool: only recommended for users with advanced BIOS modding knowledge Opening the BIOS file and finding the target DXE Volume: Double-click onto the file named Ami bios rom file download. Use the full size option to see the complete content of the UEFITool GUI.
Click onto "File" from the UEFITool menu bar, choose the option "Open image file After having double-clicked onto the BIOS file, which you want to get modified, you will see a picture similar to one of these: Expand the shown image resp. capsule by clicking onto the right-direction arrow in front of them.
Now you should see the main contents of the BIOS inclusive the most important "BIOS region". After having expanded the "BIOS region" by hitting onto the right-direction arrow in front of it, you will see a ami bios rom file download like one of these: Due to the complicated and mainboard specific internal structure of the "BIOS region", it may be rather time consuming to find the DXE Volume, ami bios rom file download, where all the EFI modules are located and where an additional EFI module like the NVMe one has to be inserted.
The easiest way to find it, is to use the "Search" option of the UEFITool. This is what I recommend to do after ami bios rom file download opened the source BIOS with the UEFITool: [li]Click onto the menu tab "File" and choose the option "Search Now you will get access to the UEFITool "Search" pop-up window. Click onto the tab "Text" and enter the word ami bios rom file download into the Text box the "Unicode" option will be checked by default.
This is the related picture: Once you have hit the "OK" button, you will get a picture like this: Double click onto any line of the "Messages" you can see at the bottom of the UEFITool GUI. The result is a picture like this one: As you can see, you are now within the "Compressed section" of a "DXE driver" which one doesn't matter.
If you close the sub-folders of the related DXE driver GUID by clicking onto the downside arrow in front of it, you will get a picture like this, where all the GUIDs are listed, which are inside the DXE Volume: Important: Make sure, that the target DXE Volume contains a module named "CSMCORE". Reason: Some BIOSes contain more than 1 DXE Volume, but only the one with the CSMCORE module is suitable for the insertion of a natively not present EFI module, ami bios rom file download.
Note: In the very rare case, that no module named CSMCORE is listed, you have to search for the upmost Volume, which contains modules with the letters "DXE" within their name. Insertion of the NVMe module Once you have expanded the DXE Volume, ami bios rom file download, scroll down to the undermost module, which is listed within the DXE Volume and has a GUID no matter, ami bios rom file download, whether its Subtype is "DXE driver" or "Freeform" and whether it is listed at the rightmost column with a "text".
Here is the related picture in this example it is the DXE File named "PcieLaneDXE", but - depending on the specific BIOS - it may have any other or even no name : Right-click onto the GUID of the undermost listed "DXE driver", ami bios rom file download, choose the option "Insert after After having done that, you hopefully will see a picture like this: Note: If there should not be enough space within the DXE Volume for the insertion of the additional module, you will get the message "File size exceeds the Volume size".
In this case it may be necessary to remove another "DXE driver" to get the required free space within the DXE Volume. Don't forget to save the modded BIOS as final step of the modding procedure. Then you can navigate to the folder, which has been designed for the modded BIOS e. Verification of the successful insertion: Immediately after you have saved the modded BIOS the UEFITool will offer you the option to open the reconstructed file.
Click onto "Yes". If you had already closed the UEFITool, you will have to re-run the tool as written above. Expand the ami bios rom file download of the "BIOS region" and its GUIDs until you have found the specific GUID again, which contains the modules of the Subtype "DXE driver". Expand the sub-sections of the freshly inserted NVMe module by clicking onto the downside arrows.
This is, what ami bios rom file download should see: Warning: In some cases the UEFITool may remove an existing "Pad-file" of the BIOS or create a natively not present Pad-file while executing its NVMe module insertion task trying to "repair" a supposedly wrong BIOS structure. All other listed modules should be untouched by the BIOS modification.
If you should realize, that within the modded BIOS a natively present Pad-file module is missing resp.
