No luck =/
I set the jumper to the proper position for ME_Recovery.
Verified that the ME readout within the BIOS reported it as "FW State: Recovery",
Tried the "backup" command, but still failed with Error 26.
I tried it again with my edited BIOS installed and the ME_ Recovery set, but...
Thanks CodeRush!
I did the following:
1. Updated the BIOS to the standard 3206 in case my changes had any ill-effects
2. booted from FTK-flash and did "fpt -bios -d dump.bin". It worked.
3. Opened the DUMP with FD44 Editor, but the DTS key is empty. Only MAC, UUID, and S/N are filled out...
I have a Z9PE-D8 WS dual-socket ASUS board that I foolishly flashed to the latest BIOS version, 3302.
I need to downgrade it to 3109, or lower, in order to be able to boot into OS X. I receive Error 26 when trying to use your tools.
I then read your post with google translate (8.2)...
