Hi, here is my post. Topic: Making easier to preserve BIOS settings during upgrade. Body: For me the biggest pain when upgrading BIOS is to manually reapply the settings that I changed before - IOW, non default ones. Or better, the biggest pain is to list them all. Sure, there aren't many but nevertheless. So, I understand it might be tricky for the upgrade process to re-apply those and that's fine. However, please give as at least a feature that would output all the non default ones to a file or at least to a screen. That way it'd be much easier to reapply them. Or such a feature already exist? |

The issue has been discussed here before and ASRock has probably had requests like this many many times. It used to be possible in the days of the actual "BIOS" but UEFI is infinitely more complex and intricate. From what I understand it is all but impossible to "reload" settings from a previous UEFI version after an update. The key issue is that motherboard manufacturers are not responsible for the core of the UEFI, that comes from Intel and AMD. Each manufacturer adds a level of customization to the UEFI but it is mostly just surface level tweaks like hiding or exposing settings, voltage limit changes etc. I am pretty sure this will never happen given the function would break every time there is a new core UEFI update from AMD/intel (AGESA etc). -------------
