    Help With EZP2019+ Programmer

    Hello. I Have an EZP2019+ Programmer with an assortment of adapters that I am trying to use to dump the original BIOS firmware from a MICRON 25Q128A IC (Datasheet here) and then flash the newest BIOS firmware.

    I have the chip de-soldered from the motherboard and have the chip fitted securely into the "200-209mil SOP8 Socket" adapter. This adapter is placed into the top portion of the 1.8V adapter and that] adapter is connected to the top portion of the programmer.

    It doesn't seem like the software is able to read the chip:



    Since the datasheet says this is a 1.8V chip, I have it connected in the 1.8V adapter socket. Here is my setup:



    Am I doing this right? Why can't it read the chip?

    That's the N25Q512A ID, not the N25Q128A ID.
    The NOR Flash was probably wrongly marked.

      Guide to transplant MEC1503 EC chip and EEPROM reprogamming for T14s gen 2 and X13 gen 2
      by acedogblast
      This is a guide that I am writing for helping others to replace their MEC1503 EC chip if it breaks (or to get around an inconvenient prompt to the BIOS). This forum has been extremely helpful to me so I would like to contribute to help others. I will tell you right now that this task is very difficult to do. You MUST have experience and tools to do precision micro-soldering, BGA reballing, trace repair, and general laptop repair skills.

      There are some specialty tools needed to do this task. The replacement MEC1503 chips can be acquired from Aliexpress. Do not buy the bare chips as...

      Add chip to EZP2019 programmer for Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga
      by mr.Data
      I have a ThinkPad X1 Yoga 4th gen with a BIOS password.

      It seems that the password is stored on the chip GD25B256D which I found and desoldered.
      Now my EZP2019 cannot read it but I can add new chips to the database. There is however some data needed that I cannot seem to find anywhere in the datasheet of the chip itself:
      Type: SPI_FLAH
      Manufacturer: GigaDevice
      Name: 25B256D
      Delay: I think it's 30 but not 100% sure
      class: 25 flash??
      Flash: 256B
      Flash page: I don't know
      Voltage: 3.3V
      Algorithm: No idea

      How to add chip support to NeoProgrammer software for the CH341A Programmer
      by SMDFlea
      Adding chip support is quite easy,there`s even some instructions included with NeoProgrammer,although its not obvious where they are
      and once you do find them there`s a few crucial steps missing.

      Extract chiplist.zip to a folder,the instructions are in Import_EN.txt and in Import.xml .Its the xml file where we add the new chip.



      Open Import.xml with notepad or any other text editor.In this example i`m adding a Macronix MX77L25650F SPI_NOR chip.



      After adding the chip save the xml file and copy it to the root directory of the...

      Asus Chromebox CN62 - wrong chip put on BIOS reader
      by BMCappelletti
      Long story short:
      - dad converted Asus Chromebox CN62 into Windows compatible, with mrchromebox BIOS, years and years ago
      - gave the computer to his son a couple years later
      - son now decided to revert it to Chrome OS, to sell it as original (re-writing BIOS with the backup one created by his dad)
      - too lazy to remove the board from the case, thought a voltage regulator was the BIOS chip (you know... it has 8 legs)
      (seems like the story was not that short)

      He used alligator clips to read the chip. No luck reading it. Removed chip and placed on a SOC-8...

      M715q Desktop (ThinkCentre) - Type 10M3 - Request bios chip location and useable bios for use with CH341A Programmer.
      by hotcrossedbuns999
      My pc updated bios through Windows Update and I was greeted with BLACK SCREEN WITH CPU FAN MAX SPEED. I don't think there is even a screen signal, because it triggers my monitor for a couple seconds and then the monitor turns off. I tried the other outputs as well.
      1. I tried clearing bios, resetting bios, removed the CMOS battery, removed m.2 ssd, wifi, and ram. Still black screen with CPU fan blasting.
      2. I tried using the Lenovo BIOS CD and BIOS USB, but neither worked. At least I couldn't get anything to work.
      3. I could only locate two chips that look like bios chips. Could someone verify this
