    DFI SU171 bios corruption?

    Hi!

    Brought in for repair DFI SU171 board
    She doesn't start.
    Someone has already tried to repair it.
    Apart from drivers and instructions, there is nothing for this board.

    I read the BIOS chip firmware and I think the firmware has an error.
    Here is the error that MeAnalyser gave
    Intel Me Tools 11.8 read the firmware and did not return any errors.
    Can someone help determine if there are errors inside the dump?

          Have you added a newer version of ME region?

              It is the same version, configured and clean.

                  There is no start yet.
                  We are trying to replace the processor with a working one from the donor board.

                      Tell me, can I somehow find another copy of the BIOS for this board?
                      There is a topic in a parallel thread.
                      It contains links to files, but they are not currently available for download.

                      We replaced the processor, but the board does not start.
                      The video core phase does not turn on.

                          The files in the other topic are no longer available due to a server problem. DFI support might send a bios if you are lucky https://www.dfi.com/contact/support

                              Request HP Proliant Microserver Gen 8 (J06) BIOS dump to restore system firmware
                              by Ahari
                              Hi all,

                              This is my first post here (I am very new to forums!) and I hope someone can help. I am looking for a full dump of the BIOS of a HP Proliant Microserver Gen 8 so that I can get this mini server running again. (BIOS version J06 2019-04-04, chip 25Q064A). I think my board was partially bricked after a failed BIOS update.

                              I got it second hand in this state and all the normal attempts at bios restoration have not worked. I have even desoldered the chip and tried to load the actual BIOS from HP, but it is missing some parts needed to boot the system.

                              I...

                              🛠️ 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
                              ...

                              [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,...
