          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...

          Help with BIOS update on Dell G15 5515 after chip replacement
          by capoplays
          Hey everyone,

          I recently bought a Dell G15 5515 with an AMD Ryzen 7 5800H and 3060 RTX. The BIOS chip on it was dead, and my hardware guy replaced the chip. After that, everything was working fine.

          The BIOS is currently at version 1.22.1, and I wanted to update it. I downloaded the latest BIOS version from Dell Support using my ST: FQZMYJ3, but when I tried to run it, it says "unsupported system." I asked my tech guy what he did, and he said he took the chip from another board and flashed it onto mine.

          When I check the BIOS using the F12 menu Flash...

          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...
