    X415JA Rev 4.2 and MP2941BGL problem.

    Hello. I have a X415JA rev 4.2 motherboard. I had a short circuit on the main B+ line — the faulty component turned out to be the MP2941BGL chip. Unfortunately, before identifyingthis, I desoldered a few capacitors and a black component located around this chip. Could someone help identify what those components might have been based on the photos?

        See this thread to get started:

        If you need additional details, can PM you. My database is linked to a paid service so the files are locked to a viewer that does not save the files. We still have options. Suggest to review the pinout of this regulator and then identify which pins are missing your part(s). Then we should be able to extract the details from the similar motherboard for which we do have schematics & BV file access.

          Problem Flashing Macronix MX25L6445E BIOS Chip with CH341A and EZP2019+ on ASUS X455LD
          by pengamat_hebat
          Hello everyone,

          I'm trying to flash the BIOS chip Macronix MX25L6445E from my ASUS X455LD laptop using both a CH341A and an EZP2019+ programmer, but I keep encountering issues.

          Reading the chip works perfectly, and I can extract the BIOS dump without any problems.

          However, erasing and writing fail every time, regardless of the software I use. (Neo, asprog, ch341, etc)

          I also tried applying 3.3V to pin 3, but it still didn't work.

          I attempted to unprotect the chip, but when I read it back, the registers remained unchanged.

          ASRock B650M PRO RS - BIOS CHIP 25Q256JW BLOCKED BY STATUS REGISTERS
          by DynaxSC
          Hi

          I have a very strange issue with the BIOS SPI chip of an ASRock B650M PRO RS motherboard.
          The SPI chip is an Winbond 25Q256JWEQ model (1V8).
          The motherbaord doas not POST - it lits only CPU and DRAM EZ Debug Leds, and stays that way forever.
          The Flashback function of the motherbaord is also not working, despite all instructions followed correctly - I'm 100% sure of this.

          I have then desoldered the chip, backupped the contents, and tried to earease the chip in order to program stock image, but the chip is locked by status registers SREG2 (TB) and SREG6...

          Q: I have a bios request,i can`t post my backup as i can`t read from the chip.

          A: If you can`t read from it how do you expect to write to it ?.

          Q: Why is my bios chip unreadable ?.

          A: The programmer is faulty or has a worn or broken zif socket.

          The USB cable is frayed,connector pins worn or some other physical damage.

          Not enough amperage or voltage to power the programmer properly.

          Asus Chromebox CN62 - wrong chip put on BIOS reader
          by BMCappelletti
          Long story short:
          - dad converted Asus Chromebox CN62 into Windows compatible, with mrchromebox BIOS, years and years ago
          - gave the computer to his son a couple years later
          - son now decided to revert it to Chrome OS, to sell it as original (re-writing BIOS with the backup one created by his dad)
          - too lazy to remove the board from the case, thought a voltage regulator was the BIOS chip (you know... it has 8 legs)
          (seems like the story was not that short)

          He used alligator clips to read the chip. No luck reading it. Removed chip and placed on a SOC-8...
