    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
                  ...

                  Locked bios password getac s410
                  by Gad007
                  Hi everyone,

                  I’m working on a small technical challenge and could really use some guidance from people more experienced in BIOS/EEPROM work 🙂

                  I picked up a old rugged laptop (Getac S410) for $50 at a garage sale. The seller warned me it was locked with a BIOS password (prompt appears immediately at power-on, before any BIOS/UEFI access).

                  My end goal is to turn this machine into a dedicated automotive diagnostic PC, so I’m trying to unlock it rather than scrap it.

                  What I’ve done so far:

                  Fully disassembled the laptop
                  ...

                  Dell Latitude 5530 BIOS Password Removal Attempted but I Broke the Laptop
                  by TopPop
                  Sorry for the long story. I have a Dell Latitude 5530 (i7) laptop (South Peak 15 MLK MB DDR4 203102-1 FK8VG$JA) with an admin BIOS password that I want to remove. Service Tag: HYKFPT3. Other than that the laptop worked OK.

                  I found a CH341A Black and went looking for the BIOS chip on the motherboard. After trying to read one chip that was a firmware chip but not the BIOS I think I found the BIOS chip labeled Winbond 25Q256JVEN. Altogether I think I found 4 different firmware chips in the laptop. The BIOS chip is a WSON8 6x8. I used the CH341A, NeoProgrammer, and a cheap pogo pin clip...

                  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...
