    Everything except the extra stuff that can be installed together if you enable it.

    The driver was broken. Noticed that while running a disk benchmark. I uninstalled the driver and tried to reinstall it after a reboot but no go.

    Are you trying to install this package here?
    Would you suggest I rollback to a previous driver if this driver is broken?
    Thanks
    BTW have you had any luck on your MSR quest Alien?

    No, I was talking about Intel RST 10.6.0.1002. However I tried Intel RST 10.6.0.1022 and it still fails the installation process.





    This is a screenshot trying to instal Intel RST 10.6.0.1022. It fails to install the SATA AHCI Controller driver. I also noticed that it still uses version 10.6.0.1002. I think that it's better to be safe than sorry so trying to reinstall (uninstall->reboot->reinstall) the Intel RST 10.6.0.10xx is a good idea, and if it fails the installation proces, roll back to a previous version.

    Ok when I extract the 11.0.1124 Option ROM from the Intel .BIO it fails
    Yet when I extract the same option ROM from SoLoR's BIOs and put it into my RE it works?
    The Option ROM's are completely different in HEX land
    My extraction method no longer works!


    112,257 difference(s) found.

    hey SoLoR could you update the microcode for Q6600 G0, I'll post the microcode later when I'm not at work.

    BTW A-Grey i had a similar problem with the RST driver to re-installing, i had to install it via the have disk method and pointing to the inf that is extracted to a temp folder during the RST install. Let me know if you want a more detailed description.

    That's great but it looks like something went wrong.

    The 000... ones aren't in the original 1002b-R2. Maybe something went wrong when you updated some of them the first time and saved it.

    Edit: Maybe it's better to stick with your first plan and only update the ones that are needed. If someone wants the microcode to be updated for his CPU he should post a CPUID screenshot. If it's done like that, it's easy to find out if the update was succesful or not.

    I think that I've found the problem. The ones that are all with 0 are probably added twice. Some of them like number 7 don't need an update and others may have been added twice by misstake. Did MMTOOL gave you a few times the warning "The CPU MicroCode Patch data is existing in target ROM image"?

    as you see in current R3 microcodes with 0000 are 7,9,11,14,15,16,17,20 and in backup microcodes with 0000 are 13,15,17,20,21,22,23,26 in both cases there is 8 microcodes with 0000 they are just on different postions so i think its fine

    as you see in current R3 microcodes with 0000 are 7,9,11,14,15,16,17,20 and in backup microcodes with 0000 are 13,15,17,20,21,22,23,26 in both cases there is 8 microcodes with 0000 they are just on different postions so i think its fine
    This is strange. Have a look at the one that I build. I don't have these 0000. All 36 Microcodes should have the latest revision. If you want you can verify it and if you find no mistakes in the one that I've build you can use this one as R3. I've flashed my board with it and everything is fine.


    Edit: I've compared the one that I build with yours and every microcode revision looks the same so I think that every microcode has the latest revision in my build.

    If this is the case than maybe it's corrupting DATA when you save it to your disk. Try with the older driver and see if it fixes the 0000.

    For example try to extract first microcode 15, then remove it and try to import it again.... and you see it will fail and i think that when you remove some microcode before 15 that 15 gets 000000.

    I didn't flash it with your fixed 1002b-R3 but I compared it with the one that I build. I don't see any differences so I think it should be fine to flash it with the fixed 1002b-R3.
    I'll give it a try tomorow.

    Thanks A-grey and SoLoR for the effort of updating the BIOS.

    nope... however microcode updates can improve preformance or fix errors (blue screens etc) so i guess it cant be bad thing

    I also flashed it with the 1002b-R3.


    Edit: I removed the BIOS download links to my builds. They aren't necessary anymore with the release of 1002-R3.

    Glad to see you got the microcode sorted in the end.
    You may find that slightly less vcore is required with the new microcode as apparently GTL improvements for QX9650 C0 was one of the fixes. I found this
    Anyway with regards to the MSR issues I know that there are some people who believe that errors are expected.
    Well I have done this test today on a DELL at work.

    Both pass with flying colours.
    If Dell can do this, why can't ASUS?
