    Motherboard Group Buy/Crowdfunded Modded BIOS for the Asrock A300m (Deskmini A300)

    I'm not sure there's a difference between 3.60S and 3.60U, from what I've seen online. However, FYI, Renoir is not supported by 3.70B or 3.71A.

    Motherboard Group Buy/Crowdfunded Modded BIOS for the Asrock A300m (Deskmini A300)

    Be careful with the 3.71A bios. That's the one I got from ASrock when I asked for a fix regarding the possible stuttering caused by the fTPM on older BIOSes, but flashing it on top of my 3.60S bricked my A300. I managed to fix it with a CH341A USB programmer though. At the time, I upgraded from...

    Glad you managed to fix it! I think the wiki page with the BIOS should warn that 3.71A does not support Renoir, and that flashing it over 3.60S or 3.60U (maybe any BIOS with Renoir support?) will probably brick the A300.

    I've read that the BIOS settings cannot be changed though, or it can become unstable. Maybe I'll test it when I find the courage to do so (and the time).

    Well, to fix this, I ordered a CH341A USB programmer and used it to flash back a working BIOS. The computer needs to be completely unplugged. No power whatsoever. I also removed everything beforehand, such as RAM, CPU and SSD, but I don't think it's required. I just didn't put it back after...

    Ok. I fixed it. The broken BIOS looks weird, like a mix between both 3.60S (SMU has Renoir) and 3.71A (AGESA is 1.0.0.8), but without any module (hence why it did not boot). I've flashed a slightly upgraded 3.60S (updated firmware), but I'd really like some AGESA 1.2.0.7... I even tried to...

    For the supported CPUs, you can use SMU checker I think. Beyond that, I'm not sure how you can read the AGESA version myself. I do have questions too about UBU: are there downside to flashing a modded BIOS? Like problems with fTPM or other secure things? If we take the firmwares from the X300...

    Sure. Here it is. I've since checked with UBU, and it looks like it doesn't have the module to load the iGPU for Renoir, so my 4600G not working is not surprising. I really fear I mishandled my 3200G at one point.

    BIOS is 3.71a. When the 4600G is in, an orange LED quickly blinks and the fan starts spinning when I power it on. When the 3200G is in, only the fan starts spinning. In both cases nothing else happens. Did I botch something? Maybe my 3200G got damaged when I swapped it out last week?

    Ok. I received a beta BIOS with AGESA 1.0.0 .8 from support. I flashed it, to try if I see stutters on the 3200G or if it works with the 4600G. ... aaaaand it doesn't post anymore...

    I do have a 3200G. But I just swapped it out, and I don't know the frequency of the stuttering. I think I'll answer that I'll check that this week-end if I have time, but they sound like they're making me waste my time as it should be fast for them to adapt the 1.80A bios to the A300, and their...

    Hi! I have a Deskmini A300 and I recently switched from a 3200G to a 4600G and noticed improved performance. Following the BIOS update (to 3.60S), I noticed that fTPM was disabled and wondered if I should re-activate it (as Windows 11 stopped offering the 22H2 upgrade). While searching for this...
