    Gigabyte B450I AORUS PRO WIFI BIOS flash

    Hello everyone,

    I bought a used ITX motherboard with a no display/POST and spinning fans. Original owner tried to update the BIOS and since then it's doing this. So something went wrong with BIOS update I assume.

    I have a CH341a programmer and I did repair motherboards with it before.

    Now I got the BIOS file from Gigabyte's site, but it's in a archive (F66g) or something and I don't know how to extract the bin from it.



    How should I proceed with it?
    Thank you!

    It doesn`t need extracting. Just rename the file extension from .F66g to .bin

          Warning: Please note you need a 1.8v adapter with the CH341A, otherwise you'll fry the BIOS, or something else on the board
          All Ryzen AM4 boards use 1.8v flash chips

            Help Disabling Flash Protection Range Registers on Lenovo P360 Tiny BIOS
            by abhorsen
            Hey guys,

            Hope you all are doing well. I come here from Win-Raid because I am having issues disabling Flash Protection Range Registers so I can flash my BIOS from within Windows using Intel's IFW tool/using flashrom within Linux, however I cannot due to the above mentioned error.

            Here is my thread on Win-Raid detailing the whole process I went through: https://winraid.level1techs.com/t/re...h-gen/95478/27

            Essentially I managed to boot into Windows while shorting PINs 1+5 of my audio chip to disable the HAP bit...
