System

  • Motherboard: ASUS PRIME B450M-GAMING/BR
  • BIOS Version: 4401
  • GPU: Ryzen 5 3600
  • [ OK] CSM is turned off. Make sure to confirm this in the BIOS and not with GPU-Z or similar since it can be inaccurate
  • [OK ] 4G decoding is enabled. Make sure to confirm this in the BIOS and not with GPU-Z or similar since it can be inaccurate
  • [ here is my doubt/problem] UEFIPatch is applied (see Using UEFIPatch for more information). On some motherboards DSDT Patching is also needed
  • [ OK] I have read Common issues (and fixes)

Description

Firstly, I want to say what a great job is being done here. Congratulations to everyone involved.

I followed all the steps to build the .ffs and .exe files successfully and also inserted the ffs into the new firmware mod, so far so good. But when I tried to apply the patch using UEFIPatch, I received the following result:

"PS D:\Bios Mod\BarMod - Copia\UEFIpatch> .\UEFIPatch.exe .\PRIME-B450M-GAMING-BR-SI-4401-MOD.CAP
parseImageFile: Aptio capsule signature may become invalid after image modifications
parseBios: one of volumes inside overlaps the end of data
parseBios: one of volumes inside overlaps the end of data
parseSection: GUID defined section with unknown processing method
parseSection: GUID defined section can not be processed
No patches can be applied to input file"

My question is: can these errors be ignored or are they issues to be resolved?

I read elsewhere that the "parseBios: one of volumes inside overlaps the end of data" error could be ignored, but I couldn't find any information regarding the others.
If anyone can help, I would appreciate it.

Doesn't the ReBarUEFI guide say to ignore any errors from UEFIPatch ?

I got concerned because I didn't see any output file as in the guide.

"4. You'll get a new file created with .patched as the extension. This file will be used for the next steps if there isn't pad file issue. If you used the USB 3 patch make sure there is no file with extension .patched.patched."

Then if it doesn't find any changes to make, it doesn't generate any files.

But it does say to continue to next step DSDT patching if you get nothing to patch

The patch and the DSDT is not needed for this mobo aparently? DSDT is only needed if you have a mobo for intel? just install the firmware update after you inserted the .ff file inside the bios file?

yes

Try this: #61
