| Management Coprocessor: Firmware | Proprietary, mostly disabled (ME Gen2) On ME versions between 5 and 11 (Nehalem to Broadwell), sometimes called "ME Generation 2", nearly the entire ME image can be removed, leaving only two modules - ROMP and BUP - totaling 90 kB out of a normal 1.5 - 5 MB.
With these modules removed, the ME remains in its BUP state and does not execute its kernel or normal ME functions, leaving it effectively disabled.
The AltMeDisable ("HAP bit") can be used on these MEs. |
