Bios Mods -The Best BIOS Update and Modification Source

- BIOS link
- CPU: Intel Xeon E3-1230V5 SR2LE 3.40Ghz X651D033

Hey guys!

So a local site suggested me to buy this CPU for my MOBO to run games smoothly with my Vega 56. The only problem is I didn't check the compability list inbefore buying the CPU. After replacing the CPU fine the PC just wouldn't boot up at all (currently I have an i5-6500, works perfectly).

After a brief surfing I found this forum thread but since this whole modding BIOS for MOBOS stuff (Did a few Android flash tho) is all new for me I have no clue what they talk about and what should I do step-by-step, from beginning to the end. (Or someone just make me a modded one that I can easy flash/install on MOBO)

So far I could download Intel Flash Image Tool v12 from here.

I don't know what else should I do, the only way I flashed BIOS so far is the common way to upgrade firmware.

I have the latest 7.30 BIOS fw for my MOBO (if this info helps at all.)

You need to use v11

Got it, whats next?

Open (drug&drop) firmware by it, select Intel ME Kernel and scroll down to Reserved
Make and post a screenshot.

Done, Starts up with the LP Series Premium U.
No EULA pop up.

WAIT forgot to drop the BIOS firmware in. Now it is fine. (Didn't even know I should do it)

NOW this is good?

Change Reserved to Yes.
Now press Ctrl+B, choose "Yes", make a screenshot.

After Ctrl+B:

Look at bottom of the window - file outimage.bin is new firmware to flash.

Got it.

So from now on, copy to USB stick and update manually with this file in current bios?

The input file was b15mp4_7.30 whcih was the only drag and drop-able form the 3 variant (the other two was .exe files). The output one is a .bin file.

Flash outimage.bin
