    Provide data:

    • computer hardware specifications
    • what operating system
    • what version of acpi.sys
    • what version of USB3 drivers

    In WinHex do this:

    • menu Tools > Disk Tools > Clone Disk... > click HDD icon in Source > Physical Media > USB stick
    • click file icon in Destination then name copy.img on WD2003FZEX
      clone-to-file.png
    • from menu Tools > Disk Tools > Open Disk... > Physical Media > USB stick
    • from menu Tools > File Tools > Compare... compare file copy.img and opened USB stick
      compare.png

    Force Windows XP to treat signed and unsigned drivers equally?

    I do not see the sense of installing these Intel drivers (not drivers) because it does not improve the operation of the device. Intel chipset drivers does not add any new .sys or .dll files only use WinXP e.g. machine.inf and system drivers (files) - only changes the name of the device in the device manager e.g. PCI-to-PCI bridge to Intel 6 Series PCI Express Root bla bla bla and this device PCI bridge will not start working better after installing Intel drivers.

    I am glad that there are ported ACPI, AHCI, NVMe and USB 3.x drivers for WinXP - no matter if they are signed or not - it is important that they works.

    Grub.efi, AmiSetupWriter.efi, SceEfi64.efi, RU.efi, dmpstore - these are different tools that are used for the same - to change CMOS and EFI VARIABLES e.g. BIOS Lock in my AMI UEFI BIOS:

    • using IFR Extractor (best from UBU) make file setup_extr.txt from bios file
    • search BIOS Lock variable - offset is 0xB52 VarStore is 0x1 and this ID is Setup EFI VARIABLE:
    0x4F0D0         One Of: BIOS Lock, VarStoreInfo (VarOffset/VarName): 0xB52, VarStore: 0x1, QuestionId: 0xC42, Size: 1, Min: 0x0, Max 0x1, Step: 0x0 {05 91 9A 0A 9B 0A 42 0C 01 00 52 0B 10 10 00 01 00}
    search VarStoreId 0x1 - Name: Setup:
    0x2BDF5     VarStore: VarStoreId: 0x1 [EC87D643-EBA4-4BB5-A1E5-3F3E36B20DA9], Size: 0x1331, Name: Setup {24 1C 43 D6 87 EC A4 EB B5 4B A1 E5 3F 3E 36 B2 0D A9 01 00 31 13 53 65 74 75 70 00}

    Now if we know where the BIOS Lock setting is to change them by using various tools - AmiSetupWriter.efi is very simple - we only need to know offset:

    AmiSetupWriter 0xB52 0x0

    In RU.efi we need to know EFI VARIABLE and Offset:

    But these tools will not help if EFI VARIABLES are write protected.

    You probably have UEFI Variables Protection password protected: 

    	0x3CD83         Ref: UEFI Variables Protection, VarStoreInfo (VarOffset/VarName): 0xFFFF, VarStore: 0x0, QuestionId: 0x1F, FormId: 0x298F {0F 0F 84 1F 85 1F 1F 00 00 00 FF FF 00 8F 29}
    	0x4AB15     Form: UEFI Variables Protection, FormId: 0x298F {01 86 8F 29 84 1F}
	0x4AB1B         One Of: Password protection of Runtime Variables, VarStoreInfo (VarOffset/VarName): 0xCB3, VarStore: 0x1, QuestionId: 0x52C, Size: 1, Min: 0x0, Max 0x1, Step: 0x0 {05 91 88 1F 89 1F 2C 05 01 00 B3 0C 10 10 00 01 00}
	0x4AB2C             One Of Option: Enable, Value (8 bit): 0x1 {09 07 86 1F 00 00 01}
	0x4AB33             One Of Option: Disable, Value (8 bit): 0x0 {09 07 87 1F 00 00 00}
	0x4AB3A             Default: DefaultId: 0x0, Value (8 bit): 0x1 {5B 06 00 00 00 01}
	0x4AB40             Default: DefaultId: 0x1, Value (8 bit): 0x1 {5B 06 01 00 00 01}
	0x4AB46         End One Of {29 02}[code]

    I do not have such a value in my mobo 8 Gen NVRAM. I recently unlocked the edition of DMI in NVRAM :)

    Your bios is AMI right? Try use AMISCE and/or AmiSetupWriter.efi to enable hidden CMOS CSM option: 

    Setup Question    = CSM Support
Token    =2826    // Do NOT change this line
Offset    =1325
Width    =01
BIOS Default =[00]Disabled
Options    =*[00]Disabled    // Move "*" to the desired Option
         [01]Enabled

    then AmiSetupWriter offset value in this example: 

    AmiSetupWriter 0x1325 0x1
