I have confirmed that nothing has modified the BIOS to add the ME modules. Intel ME intermittently(persistent until reboot) appears and disappears in Device Manager:

Well, after finally shoving the motherboard into the PC case for general use, I have an update here. Maybe those ports do have something to do with ME. Intel WDT is now gone and changed to 'Motherboard Resources'

I think it may be caused by the ME drivers needing to time out before the post continues. That's unfortunate, but something I also noticed when testing this. This actually resulted in the motherboard to post very slowly each time it starts, instead of just the first one.

It could also be that the Windows drivers are able to recover from the failure state while the Linux drivers can't. That could be a side-effect of the PXE option rom, which seems to have been enabled on your system for some reason. I don't experience the LAN port disablement upon cold boot. I think so! If the hardware initialization bits can be reverse-engineered the only proprietary parts would be intel microcode & iROG (EC) firmware, both of which are already issues for libreboot-supported systems like the X200. You can also use the ROM variants of all of these names if you don't have Capsule files.Дoes this, by any chance, hint at Libreboot potential? 'ERALL.CAP' seems to flash the BIOS and ME regions at least. The normal file names like 'R4E.CAP' and 'R4G.CAP' only flash the BIOS region. Yes, USBFlashback behaves differently depending on the file name you use. PS Did you actually manage to flash the image with ME removed using BIOS flashback? The fix can also be done in GRUB or in Linux, but in the latter case you have to reload the e1000e module. I can see about isolating the GbE fix into a separate module to be inserted with UEFITool. I wrote a UEFI module that does this but it also takes over the BDS process and boots directly to GRUB (in firmware).

You can create the file by extracting the ME region with UEFITool and overwriting the entire contents with 0xFF bytes in a hex editor.ДЄfter this, if you boot up your board and it stays on for more than 30 minutes, Gene doesn't have an active ME watchdog timer either.Дo we put this line somewhere in the UEFI or something? In that case you will need a differently-sized file.

Save the image (File->Save image file.)ДЄll of this assumes you have not used the -t flag of me_cleaner to truncate the ME region.

Select this file, which is just an empty file sized to Gene's ME size.

Right-click 'ME region' and choose 'Replace as is.'.

Expand 'Intel image' (if you have a Capsule file this will be wrapped in 'AMI Aptio capsule').

Open your ROM with UEFITool (0.26.0 works, NE versions will not as they lack modification features).

In that case I assume you are already familiar with UEFITool? Here's what you need to do: I already have a modified image(Microcode update(42E), NVMe mod, ME_Cleaner)

I only managed to get it back up and running after getting an SPI flasher, but lost the UUID permanently in the process(not like it matters however).

In the end I tried using FTK8 to flash but it only wiped the SPI chip and bricked my board. I know a simple Microcode update works however because I updated the microcode (to older 42A) using USB flashback. PS Did you actually manage to flash the image with ME removed using BIOS flashback? I tried modifying the ME region and the flash seemed to pass (the button flashing and all), but the modifications were not actually reflected in the system (I did the NVMe mod+Microcode update(42C)+ME_Cleaner all at one go, and none were reflected). If there is an automatic way of resetting the LAN after a cold boot I don't mind using the modified BIOS on a long-term basis. This can be fixed by resetting the NIC: (volatile uint32_t)GBE_BAR |= 0x84000000 Дo we put this line somewhere in the UEFI or something? Or is this a Linux command? I'm currently using Windows, at least till my NVMe adapter comes (Well, not like I'm proficient with Linux in the first place). The onboard NIC doesn't work on a cold boot. I don't mind testing it, but I can't deal with a broken LAN port, so I might need to switch back to my current image after testing.ДЄs for modding the BIOS, I already have a modified image(Microcode update(42E), NVMe mod, ME_Cleaner), so if you like me to test removing the Intel ME region entirely, I would prefer instructions for further modifications instead(I would still like to keep my current modifications in addition to any new modifications required).ДЄs for your first side-effect of rebooting after resetting BIOS, I can confirm I encountered the same after using ME_Cleaner with the /S flag. I have a CH341a flasher, so I'm not worried about a bad flash.
