Optane Error 0XA008002D, but BIOS is on UEFI mode. HP Prodesk 400 mini

[JCisn9]

Hi!

Hope you can help me with this.

After installing my 16g optane stick, I entered my bios and set it up to work with Intel Optane.

But on Windows I keep getting the 0XA008002D message (Bios in legacy or CSM Mode).

Bios is on UEFI. HDD is GPT, I updated every driver on the PC using official tools and still cant figure it out.

I attached the ssu log to this post, as it seems to be asked in most of the topics.

Sorry for my english.

Hello JCisn9,

Thank you for contacting Intel® Memory and Storage support.

As we understand, you need assistance with an error related to your Intel® Optane™ Memory. If we infer correctly, we will appreciate it if you can provide us with the following information:

• Please, let us know the version of the Optane software that you have installed in your system.

• A screenshot of the “Disk Management” showing all the storage devices. To access the disk manager, you can choose from the following two ways:

# 1: Open it from the Quick Access Menu.

o Right-click the bottom-left corner (or Start button) on the desktop to open Quick Access Menu, and then choose Disk Management.

# 2: Access Disk Management via Run.

o Use Windows+R to open Run, type “diskmgmt.msc” in the empty box, and tap OK.

• As mentioned in the article Error Codes and Messages While Using Intel® Optane™ Memory System Acceleration (https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000024113/memory-and-storage/intel-optane-memory.html) the error code 0XA008002D, suggest that your BIOS doesn’t support the Intel® Optane™ Memory, or your BIOS is not setup correctly.

We advise you to confirm if your system has the proper capabilities (Intel Optane memory-capable) in the BIOS to support Intel® Optane™ Memory with your BIOS/Platform vendor in your case HP*, and if the platform is Intel Optane memory-capable, make sure that the latest BIOS is installed.

We will be looking forward to your reply, including this information, in case you need further assistance from our side.

Thanks Josh!

• Please, let us know the version of the Optane software that you have installed in your system.

Intel Rapid Storage Technology 17.8.0.1065

• A screenshot of the “Disk Management” showing all the storage devices.

HP lists my PC as Optane Ready: https://support.hp.com/pe-es/document/c06058520 (spanish).

Lastest BIOS is installed (P23 02.34).
