    other than "memtest86+" i dont know of any pc diagnostic software anymore.
    testing GPU's and harddrives is of course a seperate thing.

    one thing, if the laptop has a switch on the board to detect the ram cover open - make sure you hold it down
    i discovered this on some lenovo stuff

    lotas is right about the clips. If you work with the BIOS often or not, better have the adapters. I bought the adapters cost less than $10 each and some are selling less than $5. The pins do not have enough space to use alligator clips.

    you can test the T48 software in demo-mode to see if it has the features you want.

    Yes, maybe CH341A can do it too with the program "NeoProgrammer V2.2.0.10".

    I don’t have such a “programmer”, and in my opinion it cannot work with status registers.

    CH341 programmer advice, including jumpers seemingly reversed
    by chazzo
    I’d appreciate some very basic advice on CH341x programmers. I know this topic comes up from time to time, but stuff changes, so I hope a refresh is in order. In particular, I see some unexpected things happening with jumper positions.

    [My plan is to learn to read and write 24CO2 EEPROMs via I2C. The first target is the one in my Uni-T clamp meter, but before tackling that I have some brand-new EEPROMs to practice on.]

    I have two basic Chinese programmers. One is the blue board with a CH341A and two rows of pin headers. To my untrained eye it looks like all the others....

    The right BIOS Programmer - The right software (HP Elitebook 820 G1, 840 G2) no soldering, EC, DMI, ME
    by STKR123
    Greetings badcaps community,

    I havent done this for a long time and want to start it all again, after some evil and annyoing illness.
    So I apologize in advance, if some phrases might sound a bit like gibberish or illogical to you.

    Im trying my best to fully describe what I plan to achieve and hope I was choosing the right sub-forum for my new adventure.

    I have a Elitebook 820 G1 and a Elitebook 840 G2 here.

    These ask for a password when entering the BIOS, but boot just fine from the internal SSD.

    I learned that desoldering...

    SAS Programmer rev 4.0 SAS JIG3 Issue
    by TonyCajeta
    Hi,
    This is my first time trying to use my SAS programmer; I downloaded the software recommended by the seller (ioprogrammer-com on eBay), but it seems to require an additional registration that costs +$50 (It was never mentioned in the purchase description) So ... I can't find any other way to get the programmer working, and I need to flash an ENE EC (KB9542Q) that is not outputting the EC_ON signal (3v LDO is present, no shorts present on 3VALW rail nor EC_ON line, nor open circuit). Does anyone know anything about this?...

    Can't read BIOS chip Winbond 25R256JVEN
    by capes
    I'm working on a Dell XPS 13 9305 LA-K461P

    I suspect that the BIOS is corrupted/bad. The laptop turns on after power button press but no fan spin, CPU is cold and only keyboard backlight LEDs come on. Voltage rails 3V3, 19V, 8V all present.

    So, I attempt to read BIOS chip - I have desoldered the chip from the board and put it on a breakout board and into socket of CH341B programmer, but NeoProgrammer, AsProgrammer and CH341 programmer all freeze when attempting to read the chip.

    I thought perhaps the CH341B is bad and tried to use another method with a raspberry...

    CH341 Programmer - any good for 1.8V?
    by dicky96
    Hi guys
    I have a TL866 CS Eprom programmer and up until now it did everything I needed to do

    However for the first time I have come across a 1.8V Eprom and my programmer will not do 1.8V

    I need to program a 25Q64FWTG

    I could splash the cash and buy a V11.71 TL866II. These come with various attachments and the kit including a 1.8V adapter is either €62 with 12 adapters or €68 with 1 7adapters. I also have the option to buy just the programmer for €46.70, if I could get the 1.8V adapter separately and use the other eprom adapters from...
