    Re: I cannot erase the whole bios chip with AsProgrammer

    Hi guys, got a SOLUTION!!!
    Problems with ERASING and VERIFICATION are caused by a badly made VOLTAGE on the CH341A - Bios chips usually run 3.3V. And it's alright with CH341A BUT the DATA LANES are fed by 5V. That's the reason the why you can't erase your chip, because of incorrect communication between your chip and the CH341A chip.
    I've spent the whole weekend on trying to flash my Bios Chip via this programmer device. There are some TUTORIALS on the Internet how to FIX the Voltage for 3.3V by SOLDERING.
    I don't have things for soldering. So I started thinking how to decrease voltage from my usb port from 5V to about 3V by connecting many hardware or something to the 1 USB Port. I've connected 1 USB Hub on this hub 1 usb lamp and a PS4 gamepad. Make a usb cable's length as long as possible. To this hub I had plugged the other hub and into this hub my CH341A. And BAAAM!!! After trying erasing, there was written: CHIPS ARE BLANK!
    You just have to try connecting different things and longering usb cables for overloading the usb port and trying erasing your chip. Erasing has to take several seconds ( not 0:00:00 ). I think I have some problems with as programmer, so then I did it via CH341A PROGRAMMER v1.18. You will also need installing 2 drivers right from their chinese website ( don't be scared, it's not HTTPS ). Trust me, those 2 files are 100% clean and ok:
    1. CH341PAR.EXE - this is a CH341WDM.INF device driver ( 06/05/2021 )
    http://www.wch.cn/downloads/CH341PAR_EXE.html

    2. CH341SER.EXE - this is a CH341SER.INF device driver ( 01/18/2022 )
    http://www.wch.cn/downloads/CH341SER_EXE.html

    I have done it successfully on WIN 8.1 on an old laptop and then on WIN 10 on my pc without any problems as well.

    Hope it will help somebody!

    GL&HF guys!!

              Unable to verify IC or write/erase/flash BIOS file to XMC QH128AHIG SPI chip using NeoProgrammer/AsProgrammer
              by testaccgta
              Hi, everyone!

              I've recently acquired two brand new SPI chips to replace the one currently in my Acer A514-54G laptop MB (FH5AT LA-K092P). The reason why I'm replacing the current SPI chip is because I had some difficulties with a third-party IT assistant who pretty much lacked the soldering skills and ended up destroying the current SPI chip soldered to my MB from factory.

              I've decided to do this on my own because I spent the past month or so learning some soldering skills and BIOS modding through Badcaps and WinRaid forums, hence the attempt. I've also chosen to buy...

              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...

              Guide to transplant MEC1503 EC chip and EEPROM reprogamming for T14s gen 2 and X13 gen 2
              by acedogblast
              This is a guide that I am writing for helping others to replace their MEC1503 EC chip if it breaks (or to get around an inconvenient prompt to the BIOS). This forum has been extremely helpful to me so I would like to contribute to help others. I will tell you right now that this task is very difficult to do. You MUST have experience and tools to do precision micro-soldering, BGA reballing, trace repair, and general laptop repair skills.

              There are some specialty tools needed to do this task. The replacement MEC1503 chips can be acquired from Aliexpress. Do not buy the bare chips as...

              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...

              GA-AX370-Gaming 5 BIOS chip MX25U12873F doesn't erase properly
              by Haganai.NMWP
              Hello

              I can't properly erase BIOS chip MX25U12873F.
              I can read it and write it, but before correct write, it have to been erased, but when I click erase program shows success, but when I try do blank verification I have message "chip disconnected".

              I use CH341A programmer with 1.8V adapter and clips.
              When I try read or write it takes 3~5 minutes and "run" LED on programmer is blinking. When I try erase, it takes up to 15 seconds, but "run" LED isn't blinking and after that, chip isn't erased correctly.

              ...
