AMT under Advanced Menu set back to Enabled after after reboot #118

Closed lenovator closed 1 year ago

lenovator commented 1 year ago

When I attempt to set AMT to disabled under Advanced Menu it will automatically reset back to enabled after a save/reboot.

I've tried resetting defaults and toggling ME on/off before changing AMT and it had no impact, BIOS keeps the AMT value to Enabled.

Not sure whether it is in-fact disabled considering ME is set disabled but wanted to know if this was an issue on my end or simply cosmetic/known issue.

I'm using an i7 X230 that was rolled back to 1.60 via 1vprep and no errors appear to have shown while upgrading to 2.77 1vyrain.

Thank you.

Probably toggle that doesn't work and or is overriden by - another one. Not much you can do. Also iirc AMT shouldn't work anyway when ME is in soft temporary disable.

If it's by design then that's fine, was more concerned there is an exception (or error) in my case/system and would require re-patching to get correct behavior. Was also wondering if others have had same behavior in the AMT menu? If not then I would assume there's something different on my system.

Only other reference I found was mentioned here for a (seemingly) unrelated issue (also i7 3520 but on T430) https://github.com/n4ru/1vyrain/issues/29#issue-573682693

Thanks again!

If the machine boots up fine, it's very unlikely that there is any corruption of the UEFI.
