Hey,

Thank you for this. I have a slightly different motherboard and graphics card. Any advice on whether I can still use this EFI or tweaks I can make?
Motherboard: Asus Rog Strix x670e F Gaming Wifi.
Graphics Card: Radeon Rx 580x.

Thank you in advance.

They are different cards, ideally you should create a new EFI for your hardware.

I suggest using the BIOS "ROG STRIX X670E-F GAMING WIFI BIOS 1602" and then creating the EFI.

If you want, update your BIOS to the version mentioned above, after updating, set "Exit > Load Optimized Defaults = YES", enter Windows and use acpidump to extract the ACPI tables and send them here so I can help you.

Download Utility for dump ACPI in Windows

https://downloadmirror.intel.com/783546/iasl-win-20230628.zip

After downloading, unzip and access the directory via cmd and type:

acpidump.exe -b
rename *.dat *.aml

Zip the directory and post here.
