    HP 800 G6 Locked BIOS (with Sure Start)

    Hi everyone,

    Thanks for your help in advance. I have an HP 800 G6 that has "Protected by HP Sure Start" on boot. It has a locked BIOS that I'm trying to remove with RCUnlocker, but even after unlocking it and reflashing, it doesn't appear to work. The password is still prompted when I attempt to enter the BIOS.

    Using NeoProgrammer in Windows and a CH341a I was able to read two 16MB BIOS chips, a GD25Q127C and a GD25Q128x like this thread here: https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...13#post1822913

    Unfortunately, I ran both files through RCUnlocker, flashed it onto the computer, and it still does not work. I've uploaded my original BIOS files to this post in hopes someone can help. Thank you!

    This is an HP 800 G6 serial number MXL1233YSS, Product number 3D2R5UC#ABA.

          This is a mini, not a desktop or a MT.

                  🛠️ 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
                  ...

                  Hello,
                  Kinda new to this, so hoping you will all give me a bit of a pass.
                  I came to this forum because need to remove the BIOS password on an HP EliteBook 850 G1.
                  I understand that I need to dumpt the BIOS to a dump file, process the dump file with RCUnlocker, then write the modified BIN file back to tthe BIOS chip.
                  Is there a beginner guide anywhere that describes the entire process for doing this?
                  I am reallly in the dark regarding which tool or tools are required to extract the BIOS dump file, then write the modified BIN back to the BIOS chip. The guides I have...

                  Lenovo Thinkpad X13 Gen 3 AMD locked bios
                  by fulaphex
                  hello friends - I have purchased a used Thinkpad X13 Gen 3 AMD variant and only after making the purchase I realised that the BIOS is locked. I have spent a bit of time browsing the forum and from what I understand it's possible the modify the BIOS that is currently on the machine and remove the password from that BIOS. For dumping the BIOS from the laptop I have ordered this ch341a programmer. Below is a photo of the password prompt:


                  I have taken the cover off the laptop and I found that "serial number" is "GM-0358MB" and "type number" is "21CN-S19U00"....
