I presume this isn't on your listed PC spec. What MB and any issues?

I flashed the latest without issue here on a ROG Strix Z490-G.

Flash on my MSI Z490 Gaming Edge Wifi without any issue.

Just did on my Hero XII. So far no issues.

So, please provide the link to Intel ME Firmware on Intel website, if possible.

You will not find Intel ME firmware for your motherboard in the Intel site, they can potentially be found on your product's support site (it's up to OEMs to distribute the Intel ME firmware and not to Intel) and are included in your BIOS updates (which in the both cases are generally older than what is offered in my threads).

O, I see.
So, when I update BIOS, at the same time I'm update Intel ME firmware, am I right?
But also there is a possibility to update Intel ME firmware separately using program along your's link?

Correct, but only if a new Intel ME firmware version is contained in the new BIOS.

If the Intel ME firmware contained in the new BIOS is older than the one you have, the current one you have will remain in place.

Correct.

Now the situation became much clearer for me with this topic.
Thank you!)

I have a ASUS Maximus XII Formula with the beta BIOS 2103.
The Firmware is: 14.1.53.1602
Could I use Firmware : 14.1.53.1617 ?

For installation shall I run "install.cmd"? Is it?

Tx !!
