    Elitebook 840 G5 Bios Chip Soldering Question
    by Azurain
    Hi everyone,

    I have an HP Elitebook 840 G5 that I am trying to get working again. I've removed the front bios chip (the 32mb one) and have run it through HP unlocker already. I've uploaded and verified the new bin, but am now experiencing an issue that has led me to believe I've been soldering the chip back to the motherboard incorrectly.

    Essentially, after re-soldering the chip back into its place and reassembling the laptop, the charging light immediately flashes orange and white and then shifts to a solid white. The capslock and numlock lights blink seven times...

    ASRock B650M PRO RS - BIOS CHIP 25Q256JW BLOCKED BY STATUS REGISTERS
    by DynaxSC
    Hi

    I have a very strange issue with the BIOS SPI chip of an ASRock B650M PRO RS motherboard.
    The SPI chip is an Winbond 25Q256JWEQ model (1V8).
    The motherbaord doas not POST - it lits only CPU and DRAM EZ Debug Leds, and stays that way forever.
    The Flashback function of the motherbaord is also not working, despite all instructions followed correctly - I'm 100% sure of this.

    I have then desoldered the chip, backupped the contents, and tried to earease the chip in order to program stock image, but the chip is locked by status registers SREG2 (TB) and SREG6...

    MSI B660M Mortar DDR4 (MS-7D42 Rev 1.1) Request for EC flash chip (W25X20CLNIG)
    by mizuh0
    Hi all I hope im doing this correctly,

    I need a firmware dump for the Nuvoton NCT6687D‑M controller (EC flash chip: W25X20CLNIG) used on the MSI B660M Mortar DDR4 (MS‑7D42, revision 1.1).

    I acquired a ch341a black to reflash my bios, and was so excited to use it that I tested it on the W25X20CLNIG 3.3v chip as I didn't have the 1.8v yet for the bios chip itself.

    Being a total newbie I straight up corrupted the EC flash chip, and now the power button does nothing, PS_ON# does not change, and when I manually short the PS_ON# pin it immediately turns off...

    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...

    ThinkPad X1C6 winbond 25q80dvsig chip dump request
    by TamFishe
    Hi, I got a ThinkPad x1 carbon 6th gen from a friend after in an attempt to fix it he ended up bricking the motherboard. today i tried plugging the laptop to the wall and i got no signs of life, despite the connections being proper. i've found out this winbond 25q80dvsig chip under a label near the usb c ports and i gave it a read, and the output has massive chunks of 0000 0000 0000 0000 followed by FFFF FFFF FFFF FFFF and sometimes some proper values scattered across the whole chip. I've attached the file because I've read people request it in order to fix it. Moderators, if I've posted this...
