Awesome indeed, at the time when the pcwelt(.)de article was released it wasn't available for download just yet I assume. Hopefully this will continue and the platform won't get abandoned as fast as the P2-A4EM. ... Mehr anzeigen

That's what I already know. It's just a shame that Medion is neglecting platforms that would otherwise be perfectly suitable for upgrades over the years and artificially cutting off this path. The structure of AGESA itself makes it at this point impossible to maintain a customized BIOS unlike Intel platforms which makes the whole BIOS situation look even more bleak.    The loss of warranty is perfectly understandable and although for me something that is obvious, me and other developers warn potencial users of that fact in case we share custom BIOS with others. It's also not meant as an affront to the company, a hoax to people or anything in that regard, just genuine care for platforms that are EOL or sometimes just neglected by the manufacturers. It's done to keep the platforms alive for both economic and ecologic reasons.   I hope Medion will do a better job at maintaining the B550A4-EM, as unfortunately it was reported by a german tech magazine who got their hands on the first PC with this board that the shipped AGESA version is 1.0.0.2 instead of 1.0.0.3ABBA. ...

It's neither a hoax nor a malware, please refrain from deliberately trying to damage someone's reputation if you simply don't have any knowledge. AGESA microcode is structured completely different than Intel microcode and as I consulted with other BIOS modders from win-raid, currently there is no option to update AGESA code with our current set of tools, maybe somewhen in the future. I worked only with Intel boards so far, ranging from Z68 all the way to Z170. Those older Medion boards are very popular in Eastern Europe, especially Poland and they are being sold here as new from factory stocks. The unofficial BIOS updates give those boards a longer lifespan as the platform itself is very decent, only hindered through the lack of official support.    This is why I want to ask out of curiosity someone from the Medion staff like @TPFLegionaire @Major_ToM @Gehringer @Burki48 if they can ask the responsible team for BIOS updates what exact tools (I assume from AMI) they use. ...

CoreTemp isn't the most reliable monitoring program, it doesn't work completely accurate with all CPU. It might be that short workloads may stress the CPU and for that short peroid of time the fans ramp up to adjust to the load, which CoreTemp probably can't log fast or accurate enough. Also since you mentioned that CPU temperatures exceed 90°C, the TIM probably has turned worse sooner than expected and a re-paste, ideally of both CPU and GPU will help with general temperatures and prevent temperature spikes, thus enabling the fans to spin at a lower RPM throughout all workloads. I personally recommend using Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut, as it's simply the best thermal paste (not including liquid metal for obvious reasons) on the market since it's debut. Medion notebook are quite user-friendly to maintain (at least in my experience), so the process should be faily easy if done carefully.   EDIT: Are you using the latest 2.12 BIOS version? If not, I recommend updating it. It's worth upgrading it alone for the CPU microcode updates and although the changelog doesn't specifically state it, a newer BIOS version might include a tweaked fan profile. Here's the link to that BIOS. I would still recommend re-pasting as this will help with both CPU and GPU temperatures significantly. ...

Oh that's interesting, that was what I was about to show you. The code snippets marked red were the old and outdated microcode, several revisions behind since Intel updated it quite frequently over the years. So the custom BIOS updates all of them to the latest available ones for this platform, greatly improving compatibility. ... Mehr anzeigen

I just checked and I did the mistake of sending you the link for the original bios that I keep as a backup. Sorry for the mistake. ... Mehr anzeigen

I will sent them via private message here on the forum in a few hours, I need to get some sleep now, it's midnight here already.   It does not require a bootable thumb drive, as Medion has opted to write the Bios in a way that it is updateable through the desktop only. Different manufacturers opt for different methods, nowadays for modern boards the standard is that you can just put the bios file on any thumb drive and update right from the bios menu, though some OEMs still opt for less user-friendly methods.   UEFI support won't be added though, this would require writing a completely new bios from scratch, for which I don't have the required tools.  ...

Yes, I confirmed with the editing tools that the BIOS is indeed for the H67H2-EM, I also did research on wether different revisions of that particular board exist, which is not the case.   If you are interested, I will send you the photos in a private message and explain what can be seen.   The MEGA link is for the file to download from there, I host all my work there for the public to download if needed.   The install process itself is quite simple, unpack the .zip archive somewhere on your computer, run the AFU.BAT file and after it's finished reboot the system. Make sure to have a stable power connection and make sure no other programs are running meanwhile that may crash your computer. Other than that it's a pretty safe process, I personally never bricked any mainboard of various manufacturers through an update. Just note that the BIOS settings will be reset to default configuration once it's updated, so make sure to note down and re-apply any changes that you may have made over time. ... Mehr anzeigen

So here's the link to the updated custom BIOS, install would be same as the regular one:   H67H2-EM Custom BIOS   Here's also two comparison shots to show you that the microcode has been updated indeed, as a nice side effect it also includes Intel's latest security code patches for this platform.   Old Microcode   New Microcode   I've modified a few BIOS files for my older 4th gen and X79 Medion motherboards and they worked flawlessly, keep in mind though that if you're willing to test this, you're doing it at your own risk.   ...

Hello john, if you could provide me a working link to the original BIOS I can update the microcode to make it work with newer GPUs. I already made dozens of BIOS modifications based on the original BIOS for various motherboards and I had a similar problem with a X79 board that wouldn't recognize modern GPUs but work with legacy ones.    The link to the BIOS for the H61 posted here isn't working for me, would you be able to upload it elsewhere? Then I could help. ... Mehr anzeigen

Wie installiere ich die Treiber? Es gibt kein exe file.   Solche Treiber installiert man über den Gerätemanager, hier gibt es eine gute Anleitung dazu: www(.)giga.de/downloads/windows-10/tipps/treiber-installieren-in-windows-10-7-8-und-co.-so-gehts/   Einfach den Treiber in einen beliebigen Ordner entpacken und beim Auswahlmenü "Auf dem Computer nach Treibersoftware suchen" klicken und den Ordner wählen.   Welches File muß ich downloaden? Und wie finde ich heraus, welchen Chipset mein PC hat? msinfo32 liefert diese Info nicht, jedenfalls nicht unter dem Begriff "Chipset".   Lade dir gleich die .exe Datei herunter, somit sparst du einen Arbeitsschritt, nämlich das Entpacken und Zip-Archiv.   Und den Treiber für die Grafikkarte gibt es nicht für Win10.   Hier ist der passende Treiber: downloadcenter(.)intel.com/download/28163/Intel-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-15-40-   Hier noch ein alternativer Link für die Audiotreiber: www(.)guru3d.com/files-details/realtek-hd-audio-2-79-driver-download.html   Hoffe dass ich damit helfen konnte. : ) ...
