AGESA 1.0.0.6 Bios update for P2A4-EM ryzen motherobards

Hercules888 — Sat, 09 Sep 2017 06:01:51 GMT

When can we expect a Bios update with the AGESA 1.0.0.6 microcode?

Currently, there are 2 bios revisions found in the wild, being P2A4W0X.109 (ref) andP2A4W0X.107 (ref).

There seems to be one mainboard that is used for most Ryzen systems, being the P2A4-EM, is this correct?

Would it be possible to provide with info on how to get the latest Bios for the P2A4-EM motherboard,

and if the AGESA 1.0.0.6 update will be included?

Thank you very much for any reaction!

Hi @Hercules888,

I think all Ryzen motherboards use the same chipset, but there still might be other differences between the motherboards, so I dont think the BIOS will be interchangeable between different brands of motherboards.

If you have a Medion system, you should be able to find a BIOS update through the support website with the MSN number of your system as soon as it is available. When the update will be available and if AGESA 1.0.0.6 is included, I don't know, I think you'd have to contact Medion themselves for that info.

Hello, I am an old men , and I have a question to your post :

You give us a link to an exe file (update the bios) but than in your text you say :

unzip the file (? with an exe) (and windows say it can arm your pc)

then you say :

Attention: Please be aware that you noticed the original bios setting before starting the update, because some values may have changed afterwards.

But is there some tool to note or save those parameters ?

next you say :

Please note: To extract all files press the "Extract"-Button. The files will be extracted to the folder specified in the "Folder"-Field. This folder will be created, if it does not exist.

but when you unzip, normaly it unzip all the files ! am I wrong ?

I am not a geek and have trouble with my pc a x7731 d (blue screen and words from µsoft says : pour W 10, une mise à jour du BIOS ne peut pas faire du mal

Thanks if You can give me a clue.

Hi,

in the meantime AMD released AGESA 1.0.0.7 / 1.0.7.x, which provides a lot of new features.

When will there be an BIOS update from Medion for those ECS P2A4-EM motherboards available, which contains those new AGES features ?

Yes, another Bios update would really support the capabilities of this capable system and would make it more future proof. So I would highly appreciate another Bios update.

Is it possible to get a compatibility list for the P2A4-EM motherboard?

I plan to replace the Ryzen 5 1600 with a Ryzen 3 1200 or 1300X and need to know, if the P2A4-EM with BIOS 2.02 is compatible to this CPU.

I have Ryzen 7 happily running on this board. I wouldn't expect any issues but why do you go for a downgrade?

Teddybaer — Mon, 01 Jan 2018 10:28:07 GMT

The P56000 is just for Office/Internet usuage and a Ryzen 3 would be enough for this. I will put the Ryzen 5 1600 in another System with a MSI B350 Board and a GTX 1060 6GB as a little gaming PC.

@Major_ToM

Thank you! I have a question, just to make it sure.

When I have a 64-bit System. Then I should run Wflash64.bat, right ?

Thank you in advance!

BIOS Version 2.06 has been officially released by Medion for this mainboard some time ago and can be installed through the Firmware entry in the device list of the board.

It will only support the 1st gen of Ryzen processors, thus i.e. the "new" version of the Ryzen 5 1600 (12nm) won't work, just original (14nm) ones.

A newer firmware on is not to be expected any more for this ECS OEM board, thus this mainboard has already reached "end of life" and no further support is to be expected even from Medion as usual.

Where can I download the latest version of the P2A4-EM motherboard bios from?
I have version 2.02.
Thanks for the help.

Re: AGESA 1.0.0.6 Bios update for P2A4-EM ryzen motherobards

burkm — Wed, 19 May 2021 07:30:25 GMT

Have a look at my previous post. Just use the "firmware" entry in the device table to update the BIOS version.

Gracias por sus respuestas, pero me gustaría saber que procesadores admite esta versión de bios, concretamente la versión P2A4W0X.109 ya que tengo un Ryzen 5 1400 y quiero actualizar al Ryzen 5 3600 y en el caso de que no fuese posible actualizar la CPU con esta versión de bios, saber si hay alguna bios indicada para poder actualizar la CPU a ese modelo de procesador. Ryzen 5 3600.

Un saludo y muchas gracias

Sorry, this mainboard and its BIOS is already (for Medion at least) a matter of a distant past. No maintenance will happen by Medion anymore because of this.

We should close this subject because its corresponding AMD Ryzen CPUs and the mainboard itself are no longer available and valid (except may be used ones)...
