@lyncia you probably have it then. me_cleaner has a diagnostic you can run for more info https://github.com/corna/me_cleaner/wiki/Get-the-status-of-Intel-ME
@thufie According to output of coreboot's "intelmetool" as described in the "Get the status of Intel ME" wiki page for me_cleaner, I recieved a green text alert:
"Good news, you have a 'NM10 Family LPC Controller' so you have no ME present at all, continuing..." followed by "ME is not present on your board or unknown" in blue.
guess that solves that
@lyncia whoa!!
@thufie this is exactly the type of thing i was looking for, thanks
