      Hi mate, You can use DMI tattoo tool to put back s/n and other details into BIOS

      Use MS DOS (it can be any bootable DOS program) copy the DMI tool file into a pen drive

      Boot the system with MS DOS - select the drive (pen drive) using command line
      eg: CD D: (or) just D: and enter

      Once inside the drive go into DMI tool folder

      Type: NBDmifit

      The software tool take u through the option where you can put the serial and other details back

      Cheers

        thanks!
        good to have the tool!

        in leyton London there are few who can do this and bios write so when he came to me; i was the last to try and i make it boot.

        the guy did not care because he had problems with the battery so he had to press enter to start the boot.

        i quote what he said : GJ with the notebook i don`t mind to press one more enter i just want to surf the web.

        he rush me so i can fix it. so next will do it nice!

        again thanks for the file

          Hello,

          I have the same hp laptop with 2 led blinks. Tried to flash the bios from hp's site but the same. I see that it has 216-0752001 chipset but the error code points to bios corruption. Is yours still working?

              These, along with the hp 625s, tend to lose their BIOS when the NB craps out, so it is sometimes necessary to reprogram BIOS after reballing, before it will show video.

              The serial numbers and MAC addresses can be written then with the HP 'tattoo' utility as posted above.

                Hello there,
                Thanks I will change the chipset then and I will inform you about the result. The odd thing is that I don't want to waste a brand new chip and then remove it again.

                  Hi guys.
                  It worked after changing the chipset. Thanks for your help and the DMI tool.

                          🛠️ MSI GP75 Leopard MS-17E71 – No Display, Deep BIOS/EC Troubleshooting
                          by macabook
                          Hello everyone,

                          I’m currently working on a dead MSI GP75 Leopard (MS-17E71) motherboard (i7 CPU, NVIDIA GPU) with a no display/no backlight issue initially. After extensive investigation, I’m at a critical stage involving EC firmware, BIOS/ME region interaction, and possible deep corruption. I'm seeking advanced insight from anyone with experience in EC/BIOS sync issues or PCH-level behavior. Here’s a full breakdown:
                          🧩 Initial Issue
                          • Board powers on (fans spin, keyboard lights up and can be adjusted, caps lock led lights), but no display or backlight
                          • External display (HDMI) shows
                          ...

                          ASUS TP500LA BIOS request/repair/merge?
                          by jbonavita
                          Hi, my laptop wont boot at all
                          With original bios no POST, only LED lights
                          With alternative BIOS from model TP500LN (flashed via programmer) the notebook works again
                          Some issues
                          A- with bios from 500LN, it won't update from bios of model 500LA (from 500LN v203 to 500LA v300)
                          B- If updated from 500LN version 203 to 300, the battery stops being recognized

                          Things I tried

                          1- Update / clear ME: Took the non working bios, made a backup, and did this: https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...theory/trouble...

                          by zenius
                          Hello, I have an old Dell G3 3579 (ST: 2WQ7LP2-8FC8) with a newer 8FC8 BIOS password. I have successfully attached to the flash chip (W25Q128JVSQ) on the motherboard with a CH341A programmer and made several modifications using Intel FIT (e.g., allow software SPI write) without bricking. I was also able to boot to a modified GRUB shell where I attempted to edit many BIOS security related options like BIOS Guard/Lock, Flash Signature Override, ME FW Image Re-Flash, etc.

                          Unfortunately, some of these modifications like to Intel BIOS Guard failed because it is fused into the PCH. Also,...

                          Lenovo Thinkbook 15 G2 ITL i5 (serial number: MP2BFZEF) bios request
                          by Wahaz
                          Hello,

                          I have a Lenovo Thinkbook 15 G2 ITL i5 Laptop (serial number: MP2BFZEF) that when I turn it on, the led on the power button lights up for 5 seconds, then goes out. There's no display and nothing happens.
                          So I thought it was a Bios problem.
                          I found 3 bios chips on the board, which I read with a bios programmer: two XMC model bios chips and a Winbond model bios chip. Each XMC model bios chip has two partitions named XM25QH128A [3.3V] and XT25F128A [3.3V]. And the Winbond model bios chip has three partitions named W25Q80BL 3.3V, W25Q80xV 3.3V and W25Q80DV 3.3V....
