I tried replacing the option rom in my bios for my DFI t3eh8 (x58), and it doesn't work. I've tried it before, but since there's trim support for raid 0, I wanted to try again.


It doesn't brick the mb, but the option rom does nothing. The odd thing is, when it posts, it shows that it's still trying to use the old 8.xx option rom, throwing an error, then continues to attempt to boot after showing the acpi table (from other sources cdrom,usb, etc). This is exactly the problem I was getting when I tried to do this mod a year or so ago.

It also appears that the updated option rom is at least twice the size than the option rom in the bios.

Can anyone that is more knowledgeable than me help me figure this out? I think it's really dumb dfi disappeared in 2010, and never bothered thinking people needed 2TB + support....


Uploaded is my current bios and the option rom already extracted. It's an award bios.

Note* I have added a slic table to this rom for my own purposes.
