You used the bios of another machine, so in the 32MB bios file, there is MPM information of that device and it has enabled the "security endpoint". I rebuilt the new 32MB bios file, cleaned the ME region.
With the 16MB file, I deleted the first NvramActiveRegn region.
But now you may have trouble with MPM again.
Thanks for explaining the procedure of fixing the EC firmware. Worked for me to fix the "endpoint security controller" problem.
To elaborate, this machine (HP Probook 440 G7) had its EC firmware corrupted which in turn caused persistent BIOS corruption. So besides re-building the BIOS image, I had to replace the EC firmware with a "foreign" one (from vinafix), but then I ran into the Security Endpoint issue. Eventually I removed the first NvramActiveRegn from the foreign firmware, and replaced the 2nd NvramActiveRegn instance with a copy from the original EC firmware, and then it was fixed. I also had to reset Secure Boot keys to factory defaults, otherwise the machine refused to boot with Secure Boot turned on.
I wonder how you knew to remove the 1st NvramActiveRegn to fix that?
