Asus X99-A II Working ready to use file download and tutorial - unlocked NVram / modified pcibusdxe / injected rebardxe about rebaruefi HOT 8 CLOSED

@Mak3rde your patch for PciBus has been added in commit 16712446c800707822dc4e37964abe0c85fc6e50

from rebaruefi.

Hi the problem here is with NvramSmi not allowing EFI variables to be written. Other users were able to fix this by downgrading NvramSmi or BIOS with one from 2014. But you have a motherboard from 2016 so that won't work

A patch needs to be developed for your NvramSmi to remove the variable name restriction. I do think those on Hackintosh forums have already figured it out.

@xCuri0 got it working.

edited initial post.

@xCuri0 nice!

Maybe you should add the info that this patch is specifically for the Asus X99a-II because the other patch that already was in the patch.txt and had Haswell written to it wasn't working on my bios, so I would assume that my patch won't work on other platforms too. Maybe it's working for other Asus x99 boards, but I could not test that.

@Mak3rde actually it does seem to apply to an ASUS Z170-WS board with similar issue. waiting to see if it works for them

@dawenhaozx have you verified that the address is actually changing in Windows

Because iirc there are multiple entries for each PCIe port.

Also there's an option to change the MMIOH region size (default 256GB) which you can try changing.

Also FYI this is the wrong issue
