I decompiled bios by myself, patched and packed again.

Now I have troubles with flashing it.

Tried to put on empty usb stick and flash with Win+B - nothing!

Tried to flash by original InsydeFlash - signature error

Tried to flash by InsydeFlash with patched dll - IHISI: EC read information error in SMI! Error: Boot block cannot support downgrade. The system BIOS will not be updated.

Can some body point me out how to do that?
