(Note 1: By the way, I feel that Asus H81M-E is a really nice motherboard for its ultra low price as of March 2015 – in my geographic area it costs less than 8GB DDR3, and less than one third of the price of i5-4460. So I write this article in order to help other Asus UEFI motherboards users. This was not immediately obvious to me, it toke me considerable time to read different forum threads and articles before coming to this conclusion. While different solutions exist, I believe I have identified the simplest one for my situation. The real problem is that after creating a modded BIOS, it cannot be flashed due to “Security Verification Failed” error.This turns out to be easily solved – use andyp’s Phoenix / Insyde / EFI BIOS mod tool instead. andyp’s AMI BIOS mod tool does not recognize the AMI BIOS of H81M-E. I experienced the following difficulties: Performing the same steps I did in the past for older (non-UEFI) Asus and Gigabyte motherboards did not work. I need to add SLIC 2.1 to an Asus H81M-E motherboard. This procedure does NOT work for Asus laptops, do not try it on Asus laptop. If you are not using an Asus UEFI desktop motherboard, you should not try what I wrote here at all. Even though this procedure worked for Asus H81M-E and B85 Pro Gamer, there is NO guarantee that it will work for other Asus UEFI BIOS. If you brick your PC by following what I wrote here, I am not responsible and I cannot help you. Flashing a modified BIOS is really dangerous.
