3 bioses to verify if they are flashable
#1
i updated 3 mainboards

first is MSI P6NGM-L

https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/P6NGML.h...o-overview

that is a long time i have this MSI product , it had a cpu Core2 Duo E8400 during a long time and with ebay i was able to update the cpu last year .
i found a good site about updating microcodes and followed the tutorial .
I updated: at least three elements of the latest release bios for motherboard MSI P6NGM-L.

The rom modules are:
Device 10de: 07e3
MCP73 GeForce 7050 / nForce 610i 5.73.32.09.15 to version v5.73.32.09.21

Device 10de: 07f8
Name: MCP73 SATA RAID Controller
MediaShield ROM BIOS 10.0.0.34 has version v10.0.0.35

The cpu is an Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550S CPUID 1067A ( SLGAE)
I removed both versions of the microcode for the cpu and also another which is for very old P4 and installs the microcode:
Cpu0001067a_plat00000011_ver00000a0b_da te20100928

the guide i followed is :http://www.delidded.com/how-to-update-cpu-microcode-in-ami-bios/
i uploaded a file having the original named msi.rom and the new bios named msi_jcg.rom plus the new source files

the file is at mega.nz : https://goo.gl/j34tnZ


second and third are made by supermicro

X8DTH-i 

http://www.supermicro.com/products/mothe...8DTH-i.cfm

i learned that best firmware for intel raid controllers is version 11.2.0.1527 it  supports hard-drives with 4k clusters .

i extracted rom modules and saw , by using drag&drop into notepad , the infos about versions , that the rom for intel raid is v10.6.0.1091 and also that one is may be not the best for the mainboard : the one with pci:id 8086:10DE .
in notepad , the module shows :

IBA GE Slot 0000 v0020 PXE 2.1 Build 086 (WfM 2.0)

i replaced it with one i found on the web...so i am not "fully" sure it is a good or best replacement , beside it shows :
