    You can try to replace the actual microcode-sections in the bios-file manually using hex-editor. Only working with uncompressed/unencrypted files.

    Problem is the size: The new mc is bigger. So hexedit-method isn't working.

    thanks for your efforts, perhaps it would work if the FFS checksum of the raw file volume was correct,
    is there a way to do it manually?

    Why do you mind CRC checksum??
    The point is that it can flashing normally.

    The CRC was just to confirm if the file wasn't corrupted, since you uploaded the BIOS file without compression (zip/rar). Anyway, I just flashed it and Windows is now able to boot and the cpu is correctly identified! Thanks once again!
