    Dell Optiplex3000 - 222003-1 | 9PVYR$HA

    Hey all. Newbie to this type of work.
    Have a Dell optiplex 3000with a 222003-1 | 9PVYR$HA motherboard. (picture attached)
    During a bios upgrade power went out and now the machine won't boot. Wanted to flash the Bios externally using a programmer (Xgecu T48) before giving up and taking it to a shop. Need help locating the actual bios chip on the board itself since there are a few of them that I can see. Any help would be appreciated.
    Is there a schematic that shows location of components on the board?
    I'm thinking its the gigadevice sop8 that located by the battery? outlined by the white box labele "jespi"

    any thoughts?

    If the device has power then Dell's BIOS recovery should work, just download the BIOS update and rename it to BIOS_IMG.rcv, drop it on a USB drive partition that is formatted FAT32. Plug the USB into the computer and press the power button and it should boot to the recovery.

      [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,...

      Dell 9010 MT BIOS Update Always Fails
      by mikeybass
      Hi, I hope some one has some advice for me. I searched the forums but didn't see anything relevant. I acquired two identical Dell 9010 Mid Tower computers from a business office upgrade (they were going to throw them out). Both of them have the same motherboard (00F82W). One of them works flawlessly. The other one had a corrupted BIOS. I tried flashing numerous main BIOS and EC files from the internet, but none of them worked. I decided to copy the main BIOS and EC from the working 9010 computer and successfully flashed the corrupted BIOS. This got the computer able to boot again and run norm...

      by jhanra
      Hi there masters, recently i got a dell 5400 chromebook and wanted to install windows, i searched the internet and i found out other people also wanting a UEFI bios for this model, i searched there is a R/W legacy, but there are bugs like keyboard/trackpad not working, and hard to install.

      so i decided to try to port one, this bios is based on dell 5400 windows version, i am testing this bios for a week now an found only a little to no bug at all in windows 10, or only a minor issue
      in windows 11 sound driver compatibility, but overall its ok, for me i can deal with it, 😅😅😅...

      Dell Optiplex 7010 micro bad BIOS flash?
      by mrrubik
      Hi folks,

      I got a Dell Optiplex 7010 micro PC (Exact Model) with 8FC8 BIOS and locked out admin password. I attempted to remove the password by patching the BIOS via info from this thread: https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...ssword-patcher
      After flashing the patched the BIOS, the PC is unresponsive with a solid AMBER power LED (not documented in manual anywhere)

      Steps I took:
      1. Read BIOS with CH341a, verified hash twice
      2. Patched
