Do you have the steps you followed to mod the BIOS, to get it working/stable on an M700? I supposed I could just use yours if you have it in your archive - but this wouldn't preserve the MACs, etc. right?
The 910x, 920x, P320, 330 and 340 can all take up to 65w CPU'sIf I have a larger external PSU, can these boards/units/cooling handle a non-T CPU? 65w instead of 35w?
You've only been doing this with -T CPUs at 35w, correct?
@mobilenvidiaComparison of CPUs I've worked with on both the M700 and M900
To see if its worth while to upgrade to a Coffee Lake CPU
I'm thinking a Kaby Lake CPU would suffice for a HTPC, as it has no less video decoding/encoding functions
May save a few $$
But the i3-9100T is a nice CPU for home use, not so if you are looking at vPro where it falls over, but I've never used it yet
Its fast doesn't gobble much power, first i3 to have turbo boost and HW Meltdown/Spectre mitigations
You could take the Coffee Lake CPU support further and link some pads on the CPU together and separate pads from pins on others
A wrong move here could render CPU and/or Motherboard broken
But a i7-9700T 8core/16 thread CPU is what's on offer to temp you

In first post is a link to a compressed file with my backups of both M700 and M900 + modified BIOS's as well

Good luck in getting back
祝你回来顺利
Most modern (Skylake?) onwards Dell machines have a BIOS setting "Security -> UEFI capsule firmware updates" checkmark that can be toggled for unattended, automatic updates. They will still show in the Windows Updates settings page at "Optional Downloads -> Driver Updates " usually as "Dell inc Firmware". I'm pretty sure Lenovo, HP etc should also have a setting like this on their BIOS/UEFI menu.Hmmm, Windows 10 caught me unawares by doing a BIOS update in its preview update along .NET
This has thrown a spanner in my works
Windows update decided to grab the M910 BIOS from March and apply it
I noticed too late
This BIOS of course will undo all the mods applied to the M900 BIOS, and not boot the i3-9100T
To top it off the SOC8 clip leads decided break tried soldering it but gave up
Ordered a new more robust one, but will no doubt take many weeks to arrive from China
So currently running an old laptop (6700HQ + Geforce 960M)
On laptop HEVC looks to be CPU decoded as 2160p video stutters like crazy = no decoding of any video, 960M included
Any way lesson learned if running modded BIOS keep an eye on Windows updates as it now also check for BIOS updates
I'll be back in a while once back up and running, there is a small chance EEPROM might be buggered
Do you happen to have the bios of the m900 unmodified?I'm back in the saddle got a:
M900
i5-6500T
8GB
128GB SSD coming, paid too much but these are popular and I need something to do at nights
BUT also got a:
i3-9100T 4c/4t 3.1Ghz base, 3.7Ghz turbo boost coming from Ebay, I'll attempt to do the Coffee Lake BIOS mod
The Coffee Lake BIOS mod without working on the CPU socket means only 4core CPU's will work
So the i3-9300T would be fastest but only 100Mhz faster and almost twice the price not worth it
9th gen series i3's better value than 8th gen as support Turbo boost
But with Socket blanking and joining pins all CPUs (35w) can be used up 9900T (8/16)
Will be good to get my hands dirty again
As long as the pad mod works for 6Core+ CPU's (I've not tested), then it should work fineCan I run a i9-9900T on a Coffee Laked M700?
