Re: Inspiron 530 bios dump needed
thanks.
is that ICH9 rom original?
there is a hacked one floating around that is fucked because the MAC address is missing.Comment

Re: Inspiron 530 bios dump needed
I think you're supposed to enter the MAC address from the original BIOS (or a label on the board if the original BIOS is completely unreadable).Comment

Re: Inspiron 530 bios dump needed
enter it where??
if these arent dumped from working boards then they are useless because that data must be in them for the o.s. to start.
btw, i dont know where you got those 4M files - the boards only have a 2M chip on them!!
i think i'll scap this dell shit - dell are nothing but a pain in the ass.
i have been through this bullshit with dell products before with missmatched bios sizes, critical data in the flash to save a few cents on an eeprom etc.
fucking company should fold and save us all a lot of problems.Comment

Re: Inspiron 530 bios dump needed
EDIT: My apologies to you stj, i fucked up.I was using some dell bios extractor software and it pulled the bios from a random folder in my temp files,i never noted what size the bios should be,just assumed it was ok.Ive attatched the right ones this time...hopefully.
I found some more info, according to this dell article there are 10 different 530 variants: https://www.dell.com/support/article...347263?lang=en
From a post over at bios-mods the different bios versions for each one:
530: BIOS chip (NVRAM) 16 Mb(G33/ICH9 chipset, uses BIOS v.1.0.18)
530a/530c: BIOS chip (NVRAM) 8 Mb(G33/ICH9 chipset, uses BIOS v.1.0.18)
530b/530d: BIOS chip (NVRAM) 8 Mb(G31/ICH7 chipset, uses BIOS v.1.0.2)

Hi, I have an MSI PRO B660M-G DDR4 board with damaged BIOS and i need a bios dump from a real board, along with MAC, UUID and Serial Number info (eg. a BIOS screenshot and pictures from the board stickers).
I need to reconstruct the bios on my board, based on another bios image form a real board - meaning a bios image containing MAC address, UUID and Serial number. A stock BIOS is not suffiecient, as it is impossible to discover where the MAC, UUID and SerialNumber are stored. Tried with a similar board, but there are too much differences, and the stock BIOS is missing a lot of...11-17-2023, 10:56 AM -
I have this laptop that does boot but it's on an older BIOS that has issues with Secure Boot, and I cannot use the normal Razer BIOS updater because for some reason the serial number is missing / got deleted somehow (Common issue on this model, from what I've read). I got a dump of the BIOS chip (or at least what I think is the BIOS chip), and its 16MB in size - the files from the Razer BIOS update are 8MB. (There's two 8MB files, am I supposed to combine these somehow? Or combine with an Intel ME firmware? I have no idea).
So, I'm looking for a BIOS dump for this machine - a 16MB one.... -
Hello,
I badly need bios dump for HP DM1-4000er,
Model: HP DM1-4000er
Motherboard: DA0NM9MB6D0 REV.D
Product: QJ490EA#ACB
Please help. My bios chip burned so I don't have the old bios anymore. I need bios dump before I can install the replacement. -
The Samsung S49CG934SU monitor does not power on - no LED indicator activity and no response to power button. However, when 21V power is connected, it immediately draws 0.8A of current with no display output. The motherboard processor gets warm, and there is continuous reading activity from the W25Q128BV BIOS chip.
Suspected Cause:
I suspect the BIOS may have been corrupted during a power interruption while updating the firmware. The official website provides firmware updates, but they can only be installed via USB flash drive.

Hi everyone,
I accidentally bricked my NUC7i5BNH after disabling the option to boot from USB, and now it's not showing any display at all. I tried the USB recovery method, but unfortunately, it didn't work.
Local repair shops are quoting around $150 just to flash the EEPROM, but considering the unit is only worth about $75 these days, that’s not really an option. So I'm hoping to learn how to flash the chip myself. But to get started, I need a working BIOS dump for the NUC7i5BNH.
I did come across a post with a dump for the NUC7i7BNH, but I wasn't sure...
