How to Modify an AMI Aptio V BIOS Using MMTool v5.0.0.7

Modifying an AMI Aptio V BIOS using MMTool v5.0.0.7 is a complex process that requires specific skills and knowledge. However, with the right tools and instructions, it is possible to modify the BIOS and achieve the desired results.

What is MMTool?

MMTool is a utility program used to modify BIOS files, particularly those created by Phoenix Technologies. It allows users to insert a BIOS module, which is not present within the original BIOS or remove a BIOS module. However, it cannot be used if you want to modify any other type of BIOS.

Limitations of MMTool v5.0.0.7

The currently available AMI Aptio V MMTool v5.0.0.7 has problems with the update of certain BIOS modules of the latest Intel chipset mainboards (X99 and newer). This means that it may not be able to update all BIOS modules of these mainboards.

Using UBU Tool with MMTools

The UBU tool uses the AMI Aptio MMTools v4.50.0.23 for older Aptio IV BIOSes and MMTool v5.0.0.7 for newest Aptio V BIOSes. This tool supports all Intel and AMD platform BIOSes.

Instructions to Modify a BIOS Using MMTool

To modify a BIOS using MMTool, you will need to follow these steps:

1. Insert a BIOS module that is not present within the original BIOS or remove a BIOS module.

2. Save the modified BIOS to a new file (BIOS.UEFI).

3. Use the UEFI BIOS Updater tool to detect the versions of the OROM/EFI modules inside an AMI UEFI BIOS file and update them.

Important Considerations

Before sending your Video BIOS to Toradex, make sure that you have purchased one support hour. You can test the Video BIOS under DOS before sending it. Toradex will generate a new BIOS without any testing, so please ensure that you have purchased the necessary support hours before sending your Video BIOS.
