    Dell Latitude 5520 - dump bios to obtain password

    Hello,

    I am not experienced in electronics, but I really want to check if my idea is possible.

    I have motherboard replaced from Dell Latitude 5520 (11th gen on i5 CPU).
    BIOS/UEFI access on that MB/PC is blocked by password which I want to get it know - even if I need some bruteforcing or stupid manual activities.
    There was no computrace activated.

    I was happy when I saw many posts about removing BIOS password based on .bin file dummps. I wanted to go little further - get to know the password from the dump.

    1. I do not know how thebios chip is identified and I would ask you if my assumption is good or wrong:

    U2502 on PCB >> 8-pin winbond chip 25r256jven 2105 6103 moo14 marked on photos.

    I have created some photos if needed. So the back side of the MB is also attached. If you need more picz please let me know.

        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...

        ASUS ZenBook UX480F : need help with cleaning the ME region of my BIOS dump
        by mkdj
        Dear all,
        I have a ASUS ZenBook UX480F with the following symptoms:



        I suspect it is a BIOS issue. So I decided to try to clean the ME region. I followed the guide on win-raid, and I believe I have done everything correctly. My problem is: when I open the outimage.bin in ME Analyzer, it says that it is Extracted, and not Region, Extracted as it should be. Is it normal, or did I do something not correctly? This is my first experience editing BIOS files.

        I would appreciate if someone could take time to explain the issue, so that I can learn. But I would...

        by Citymin
        Hi all,

        My Samsung Galaxy Book 2 Pro 15.6-inch laptop has no display and won't boot.
        The charging red LED lights up, but the charging screen doesn't show any indication.
        When I press the power button, the blue LED cycles on and off three times, then the screen doesn't turn on, and the device won't boot.
        (I've tried removing the battery and resetting the device, but the issue persists.)

        NoteBook Model name : Samsung NT955XED-KK51G(Galaxy book2 pro, i5-1240p, 15.6inch AMOLED)
        PCB model name : Venus2-15-5G(REV1.2), Venus2-15 ADL NPC
