Per User Request @ Pulled BIOS Mod (Meaning Gigabyte has pulled this BIOS, you have been warned :))
GA-X58A-UD7 Rev 1.0 F8 MOD
Realtek >> 2.45
Intel RAID ROM >> 11.1.0.1413
J.Micron >> 1.07.28
http://www.mediafire.com/?sddalh1atwt3t68
Why 11.1.0.1413 ?
There is also 11.5.0.1111.
Are there any Problems with 11.5.0.1111 ?
Because it was the newest non-alpha one at the time, by request.
I can make one for you with 11.5 if you want, if so let me know and let me know which exact BIOS you want modified! No issues with it that I've heard about.
- Intel® RAID ROM 11.5.0.1111
- Realtek LAN ROM 2.45
- JMicron ROM 1.07.28
+ newest Marvell-Rom
For Board X58A-UD7 Rev 1 (F9D)
Or are there any problems with newest Marvell-ROM ?
Many thanks in advance !
OK, will do later this evening, and I'll PM you so you know it's here.
In the meantime, you look or ask around about the latest Marvell ROM, I don't use or advise those ports so I really haven't kept up lately with which version is faster/better. I can switch it out though if you want, reply back and let me know for sure if you want it or not, newest isn't always best so keep that in mind. I'll wait until you reply back on that, otherwise I'll leave it the version it already is.
Can you please send it to me also? :)
Thank you from Norway :up:

Untested but should be fine as always, Enjoy!
Very nice, thanks a lot,Lsdmeasap.
Anyone tested it already ?
You're welcome, I'm always happy to help!
It'll be fine, go ahead and test! :up:
I just always say untested if I do not personally have time to test myself. For this, I can test but my Ud7 is not setup right now, so I didn't test it.
The BIOS mod will be fine though, I mod them all the time without any issues, so it's OK to use for sure!
can't flash Bios F9 Mod Bios. Q-Flash says "Invalid Bios Image".
connecting an SSD i take it the intel is the best option over the marvel? and yes still on HDD as a boot drive, think i am the only person on plant that still is lol ,
also nice bios mod Lsdmeasap :clap: , also were is the thanks button on here? i no it is such a silly question but i just can not see it.. :mad:
Don't try it anymore then, thanks for the heads up! It might just be due to your older BIOS version or size difference? What BIOS are you on now?Quote:

So if that's it, no problem to fix (And sorry I did it!), I'll do the mod again and post for you tonight!
Yes, Intel is the best to use with SSD!Quote:

Horsi74, I'll test that shortly if you are reading this now! I bet I just used the wrong version to edit it, I always forget which works best for each board and doing many mods for various boards I sometimes forget to double check which version I'm using when I'm in mod mode :D
Thanks again Horsi74!!! :up:
That was the issue, I was modifying too many files that day, and mistakenly used the wrong version for this board!
New link edited into the above, tested and working!

Don't forget to set Force for Marvell update! :up:
Qflash Checksum = 6100

You're great. Works perfect. Many thanks !
Great to hear all went smoothly for you this time around!
Really sorry about that previous file, I should have paid closer attention to what I was doing! The issue was I modified P67 and Z68 BIOSes several times that day, and then X58 in between, and they all need different versions of the tool used to work properly, but no matter what version you use they all look the same and look like they work too so it's hard to keep track if you are doing a bunch of mods at once. This taught me though, I'll pay extra close attention from now on, sorry again!
was thinking that even after the Bios marvel update, what speeds are we looking at max with a 6gb/s drive? , mate i can not see this dam thanks button that's why i have down none, can you do a screen grab to show me? dam daft this:(Quote:

As I've mentioned before, the latest marvell BIOS rom may not be the fastest either, but even if it is it's probably only 10-20MB/s faster than the others (if that). And I do not know which one is faster, I know there used to be an old one that was fastest, but I have not used those ports in so long I forget which it was and who showed me which one was better way back then so I can't even go ask them so I can grab it to compare to the most recent one.
The only drives I've ever tested on the Marvell ports are 128GB C300's, and that was on all older stuff (old ROM's, drivers, ect), you can see those results in my C300 review linked in my signature.
Haha, maybe you have an ad-blocker or something stopping the thanks button from showing up? If not, clear cookies and cache and sign back in and see if that helps.
It's here, under the avatars, on each post except your own posts :D
