Ii had the same problem with my x79 extreme6 and since the support for it seems to be dead i patched the bios myself...
If you dare search for a similar as possible board (i used a z97, you might use the 990 extreme) with nvme support. There as dozen of example in the net how to extract the three needed nvme modules from one uefi and add them to an other. |

Yeah already thought of that but.....the 970 extreme 4 bios does not support booting from NVMe which is a shame, as I need it for the operating system.
Tested PSU with my PSU tester and stable as a rock, also tried it in another PC and working fine, I tested everything in another PC and the only thing that don't work is the motherboard and CPU, the system was plugged into an UPS with surge protection, after seeing so many dead 990 boards from all mobo makers on ebay beginning to think they are weak.

I had until the other day I had a Gigabyte GA-990X GAMING board, it died and took my FX4300 CPU with it, not impressed only had this board for 5 months, I usually stick to Asrock boards but could not find one that had M.2 slot......
Now I still have my 970 extreme4 but will not boot to NVMe......annoying, can I get it to work or no chance. Or are there any AM3 Asrock boards that do support it, I don't wan't to go AM4 just wont pay the silly prices at the mo for DDR4, CPU etc I have the Samsung 960Evo M.2 and didn't really want to shove it in a sata case and go backwards. Just bought another FX4300 for £20. Any help as this is driving me nuts all the testing and searching...... |
