That's good news. Seems the ME1 patch doesn't work because it doesn't support the Skylake-X processors... At least that is what I recall reading.
I emailed ASRock about 10 days ago. Hopefully they get back to you. Thanks for any follow-up info.

I'm getting the same error ("Error
8704: Firmware update operation not initiated due to a SKU mismatch") running the "ME1" patch on my ASRock X299 Taichi board with an Intel i9-7900X CPU. I see this issue was first reported six weeks ago in another thread, so I'm surprised there is still no fix for it. As I understand it, the error means that the firmware patch does not apply to my CPU (???). I've updated my Windows build to 16299.192 via the Microsoft security patch, but the Intel detection tool for INTEL-SA-00086 still shows my system as vulnerable since the Intel ME firmware patch won't install on my system. I opened a support ticket with ASRock about it, so I'll report back if and when I get more information.

Can anyone from ASRock confirm they have a patch for the x299 based motherboards coming soon? Intel Tech Support tells me ASRock should already have the patch -

Hi there... I'm a bit confused after reading the posts in this thread. Can anyone confirm if you're on x299 based mobos with Gen 8 CPUs, has anyone seen a patch from ASRock? I get the 'mismatch SKU' error with the ME1 download. However, the intel bulletin says my config is susceptible - https://security-center.intel.com/advisory.aspx?intelid=INTEL-SA-00086&languageid=en-fr Also, can anyone with X299 platform based boards confirm the version of ME on their system? For example, for me: System Board: x299e-itx/ac CPU: i7-7820x ME Version: 11.10.0.1287

My bios is already on the newest version (7.20), did you flash the newest version again or did you update from an older version?

Problem was fixed by CMOS memory reset.

On Z270 Gaming-ITX/ac after ME update HDCP 2.2 is not working anymore. Before update everything was OK! This means that after applying update we will lose possibility to watch on integrated graphics Netflix in 4k and play UHD BR movies.
Does anybody found fix for broken HDCP support? Motherboards with Z370 received Bios update fixing this issue, but as for now for Z270 there there is nothing new ...

The Z170 Gaming K4 IS a double BIOS board :/
Anyways, the INTEL
patch didn't work first time for me either but re-flashing my BIOS
worked for me too. Again, this isn't even an ASRock patch.
