    MSI 990FXA-GD80 Bios ROM file request

    Hi Guys,

    I would like to request a bios rom file for MSI 990FXA-GD80 , the problem i have with the board is like this https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=256770.0

    The board was sent to me to be fixed but i am not sure what bios was on it and because it doesnt post i cannot confirm it, the bios files on the msi like are all exe and i cannot use .exe file for the recovery.

    The files on the thread i posted would work but they no longer active.

    Thanks in advance

    Why not try downloading older 11.13 BIOS from https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/supp...html#down-bios ?

    Downloaded file 7640vBD.zip unzips to:

    19/10/2012 04:20 PM 450 7640vBx.txt
    08/07/2011 03:25 PM 194,496 AFUDE238.exe
    19/10/2012 09:07 AM 8,388,608 E7640AMS.BD0

    Unzipped E7640AMS.BD0 appears to be an 8MB BIOS file, with AFUDE238.exe a DOS flash program
    better to keep quiet and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt

      ASUS TP500LA BIOS request/repair/merge?
      by jbonavita
      Hi, my laptop wont boot at all
      With original bios no POST, only LED lights
      With alternative BIOS from model TP500LN (flashed via programmer) the notebook works again
      Some issues
      A- with bios from 500LN, it won't update from bios of model 500LA (from 500LN v203 to 500LA v300)
      B- If updated from 500LN version 203 to 300, the battery stops being recognized

      Things I tried

      1- Update / clear ME: Took the non working bios, made a backup, and did this: https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...theory/trouble...

      [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,...

      [Request] BIOS file for Medion Akoya S6445 (MD61280)
      by 247
      Hi,
      I'm looking for the original BIOS file for the Medion Akoya S6445 – model MD61280, preferably in .bin or .rom format for flashing via CH341A programmer.

      The BIOS chip is a GStek GS7166 (25Q64 compatible, 8MB SPI).

      Does anyone have the correct BIOS file or know where to get it?
      Any help would be greatly appreciated!

      Thanks!

      Request for Lenovo 5-15IMH05H Type 81Y6 BIOS bin file
      by maanee11
      Hello Everyone,

      I have Lenovo Legion 5-15IMH05H (Lenovo) - Type 81Y6

      and I have encountered a Black screen on startup. I have tried the power drain and all sorts of tricks that were available online to revive it but no joy.

      Since I have already an expired warranty, I am thinking of flashing the BIOS externally. I have a Ch341A SPI flasher to program the BIOS externally. I see that to program the BIOS, I need a bin file for the BIOS. The latest BIOS executable can be found here but I need the bin file to flash it externally.

      Lenovo ThinkStation P520 BIOS file needed
      by Forest79
      Hello,

      I got a Lenovo ThinkStation P520 (Type 30BF) from a friend, asking me for a repair. Windows 11 offered a firmware upgrade as an optional update, and it failed.
      The emergency flash procedure from the hardware manual has also failed. So, I asked an acquaintance with better skills to flash the BIOS directly.

      However, the chip (a Macronix MX25L25673GMI-08G) has a size of 32 MB, and the BIOS file from the Lenovo website (extracted with UEFITool) has a little more than 16 MB. Thus, the software my acquaintance used (SiberiaProg v1.45, with a CH341A Programmer)...
