    Eprom and bios

    I have a card of a brother mfc l2700 dw multifunction on which I think the eproms are blown (it mounts 2) 1= gd25q40bt and another gd25q128csig, the questions are: do I have the chip disp. the 1 is the same and for the 2 I have gd25q127csig is it okay the same? Or you can provide me other mods. comp.?

    Another question for the bios to write on it online I can't find anything but I both took the bios from a card of the same multifunction, only that it had different chips, i.e. w25440clnig and w25q64fvsig, I ask that the bios will be the same and therefore I can insert them on my new chips?

    Finally, to look at the perfect compatibility, should the abbreviations be looked at in their entirety or is it just the first 2 numbers, the central letter and the following 2 numbers? Thank you with all my heart.

    Re: Eprom and bios

    first 2 numbers are the interface, second set of numbers is the capacity < very important.
    final letters also important because they indicate stuff like voltage.

      🛠️ 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 Zenbook Pro Duo UX8402ZA BIOS
      by pirati
      Hello everyone,

      I recently bought a non-working Asus Zenbook Pro Duo OLED UX8402ZA that was listed for parts only. The seller mentioned that it had no display output but that the charging lights worked.

      When the laptop arrived (without a charger and SSD), I connected a charger and confirmed with a multimeter that it was charging the battery. However, when I tried to power it on, only the backlight of the secondary display came on. There was no image, and it didn’t boot into the BIOS.

      I decided to try flashing a new BIOS, but since I didn’t want to desolder...

      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...

      [REQUEST] Dell G3 3579 BIOS Password & AMI Protected Range/BIOS Guard Unlock
      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....
