Hi serge, your slic bios dell mod worked with older Asus (laptop) OEM certificate already installed on my older win7 SSD which is pretty cool. Only thing with this bios motherboard Sata ports are not populated with drives in Bios view in AHCI mode (not showing in Bios post either), but would show in boot priority view and boot fine, able to boot from M.2 SSd PCIe extension card, drives appear in IDE mode in Sata IDE view. But everything works fine, will submit feedback to original forum who preformed the NVMe mod, thanks again Serge
