    ASUS Z87-K BIOS/ME Version

    Hello!

    I updated my ASUS Z87-K BIOS through EZ Flash, and in the process it lost the ME Version (or it got corrupt)

    Now the machine runs very slow on startup, and it won't shut off unless I hold down the power button to force shutoff.

    In BIOS > System info the ME Version shows as N/A

    Can anybody help me fix this? =)

    I took a backup-file of the BIOS and I'll add it in files.

    Your file doesn't contain ME Region neither Flash Descriptor.
    Did you make the backup using a software or a programmer?

      I used ”BIOS Backupp toolkit 2.0” but if you want me to I can read it using a programmer instead?

        It's much better to use a programmer, because often the software just backup the Bios Region not the full Bios Image (as your case).

          I understand! Will do a full read using my CH341 programmer once I get home (an 60-90 mins)

          Thanks :-)
