I tried reflashing the modded bios again and it is still locking up when I try to access the aspm menu, I noticed my board is v1.2a not plain 1.2 so maybe this is the issue, I don't know if someone could maybe post a recording of how they get to the aspm settings so I can see if I'm missing something? I also tested the m.2 to sata adapter with a 1x pcie adapter and it still worked, when it's in the m.2 slot it lights up before post but never again after, I was considering masking off the power disable pin to see if the bios is shutting it off for some reason, does this seem like a bad idea?

Tested a couple other m.2 drives and they work fine, any clue why the sata adapter only works in the pcie slot and not the m.2 slot? I heard something on level1techs forum about some other aliexpress boards missing clock lines on the m.2

I have a kingnovy green board with the pcie slot as well I flashed the modded bios and looked for aspm, under chipset > hidden menu > pci express settings, this causes the machine to lock up I also tried to use a m.2 to 6x sata adapter with the asm1166 chip, but it doesn't get detected when installed in the m.2 slot but it works in the pcie 2x slot using a pcie 4x to m.2 adapter
