    This needs a board specific bios mod which involves the bios backup, submitting results.rar to a modder and receiving a custom modded bios.

    I have been served by Serg008 and have a successful mod. I've been told the basic method but I'm asking for clarification on what files I need to work on for it to work.
    Also it is not like a regular bios flash when you get your mod, it flashes from within windows and modifies the Intel ME regions by what I have understood so far.
    Code:
    Any chance of the method to modify bios F20 for a Gigabyte GA-Z170XP-SLI?
    
    I've tried new module but it said bios file invalid when I tried to flash in bios qflash.
    
    Do I need to use RW file?

    EDIT1
    I have tried Module and Dynamic, both create file successfully but both show error invalide bios file when trying to flash.
    
    I have come across a post about usings a modified efiflash tool to bypass the checksum verification used. Will be trying that soon.
    
    EDIT2
    Tried the modified efiflash tool and I got
    
    !!!OEMID Mismatch !!!
    
    I already flashed the board to F20 original bios and now I can't flash a modified bios so any clues would be nice :)

    I flashed only version from here. Only.
    Maybe it's asus protect system?
    How to swith it off?

    P.S. Now I checked hash of CAP on my DOS-boot USB drive. It's the same as mod CAP.
