My guess is that ASUS will use PFAT for their own/new models (as PFAT is used at Intel laptops a lot) but "maintain" BIO for the older ones. At least...

The problem occurs because the PFAT images of Meterolake platform use a stronger/larger RSA signature (3072-bits vs 2048-bits) after each signed data block. I have already added support for RSA...

Fixed at #38 (6ae1587)

Try removing all power (cord+batteries) for 1 minute to trigger a ME reset in case that's the problem. Otherwise, it might be helpful to upload the working and non working...

Well if you can write some data and read it back right away properly (same hash) then flashing is not the problem. I was talking about wrong SPI image recreation...

They look fine as far as SPI structure and me_cleaner are concerned. Try the test files [here](http://www.mediafire.com/file/xc3v9gyv0ilykxc/test.rar) just in case. Flash only "test_61fd606_effs.bin" and if it doesn't work there is...

Thanks for the report. This looks like some sort of OEM/BIOS security measure to me. Maybe a TPM, BootGuard etc but I don't have knowledge on these subjects. I believe...

It could be BootGuard related. BG is set via the ME. That machine has Profile 4 (FVE) activated which means "Verified Boot, Immediate Shutdown". So after the reflash, the VB...

For MEI communication, a prime candidate is Igor Skochinsky's @skochinsky [me_util](https://github.com/skochinsky/me-tools) script which I suppose can be modified by someone knowledgeable to detect BG-related FPF values.

To provide more samples for testing the fix, I have now added 4 of them at the OP, all of which lack the VariableSmm EFI binary: **73d17a462c4999d1415259e15c2ded55457b06ac.BIN** ```json [ {...
