    BIOS is sent to PCH by T2.

            Common SPI bios chip programming Questions and Answers
            ----------------------------------------------------------

            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...

            Lenovo laptop does not turn on, what does this number mean in a BIOS chip?
            by thxd43
            Hello, first of all, excuse me, I am using the translator, English is not my native language.

            I have a Lenovo ideapad 330S - 14IKB laptop.



            The tablet did not recognize me when I connected it, so I checked the device manager and I realized that there were many with the exclamation mark, so one by one I began to update their drivers until the sign disappeared of admiration, I even updated the BIOS, and the laptop rebooted normally and worked, so far so good, but the tablet still did not recognize me, I read on the internet that it could be due to a...

            Acer e15-e5-576g-5762 bricked. Bios chip won't interface in AsProgrammer.
            by inck243
            Thanks for any help. The board version is DAZAARMB6E0 REV: E. The bios chip is winbond 25Q64JVSIQ1736. W25Q64JV is not available in AsProgrammer -- only BV CV FV or FW_1.8c. The chip won't interface with asProgrammer and a CH341A. When I have this chip on the board, the laptop will not post but when I plug it in to power, the blue LED lights up, also the orange when the battery is connected. When I push the power on button, keyboard backlight turns on and the fan starts briefely then turns off. But I can't do anything to program this bios chip so I bought another one.

            The BIOS...
