Re: How to confirm if you have a dead Bios chip
Remove the BIOS chip, put it in your Eprom programmer and try to read the contents
If you can read the chip it is probably OK
Flash with the latest BIOS anyway. Tell the programmer to verify the contents after writing
That should prove it quite definitively
