125131#### Host boot flash
126132
127133The host BIOS SPI flash is programmed through the on-board TPM header, which
128- exposes the SPI bus. Remove the TPM module and wire the ` SPI_1 ` header to the
129- TPM header. For the pinout and detailed wiring, refer to the
130- [ board's recovery section (setup with RTE)] ( ../../variants/asrock_turind8ud/recovery.md#external-flashing ) .
134+ exposes the SPI bus. An SPI flash TPM adapter PCB set carry the bus between the
135+ motherboard and the RTE, one on the motherboard ` TPM_BIOS_PH_1 ` header and one
136+ on the SPI extender HAT, joined by a ribbon cable. Do not wire the TPM header
137+ with individual jumper wires - that wiring does not work reliably at the SPI
138+ clock used for flashing.
139+
140+ The adapters come in two variants, one with an IDC connector and one with an FPC
141+ connector:

149+ The cable should be around 30 cm - longer cables may not work.

151+ Install the motherboard-side adapter before mounting the board in the case - it
152+ can also be done with the board already in the case, but it is harder. Install
153+ the PCB with the ` TO MOBO ` silkscreen (on the reverse side) onto the TPM header,
154+ aligned with the bolt hole, and make sure all pins sit tightly:
