Hi, thanks for the quick help, i tried to flash this one and get this error
18 - error: Secure flash rom verify fail. 

Unfortunately, even when i try to flash the original backups i made i get this error. This might be the cause, is there a better way to back than using AFUWINGUI that wouldn't give this error

Good evening.  Sorry to revive such a dead thread but I was wondering if the 2720 bios file was still available.  The original link seems to be dead.

Here you go.  My main goal is to be able to use an eGPU in the mini PCIE slot.  I think enabling Hot-swapping PCIE and bypassing a PCIE whitelist are high priority but this is my first time doing eGPU stuff.  Any additional options would be great.
