    HP 470 G0 with wrong bios flashed.

    Hello!
    Today i received a HP 470 G0 that works great except a delay on HP logo on post.
    I noticed wrong bios is installed (HP 450 G2 ) and i wonder if there is any way to force flash the 470 G0 .bin without disassemble it and attach the programmer?
    Thank you!

      Alienware Aurora R15 accidentally flashed with XPS 8960 BIOS
      by drux
      Hi,
      I've had an ssd that was previously used on dell xps 8960 and then it was installed in Alienware Aurora R15(intel version). On first windows boot in R15 windows started bios update and loaded bios for xps 8960(r15 and xps8960 essentially have same motherboards).

      Now it has xps 8960 bios that looks different from alienware bios and when I'm trying to run bios update files for R15, I get unsupported platform error.

      These models have AMI/Aptio BIOS.

      Tried to edit product info with DMI Edit to change values back to Alienware R15, but it does not want...

      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...

      [REQUEST] Dell G3 3579 BIOS Password & AMI Protected Range/BIOS Guard Unlock
      by zenius
      Hello, I have an old Dell G3 3579 (ST: 2WQ7LP2-8FC8) with a newer 8FC8 BIOS password. I have successfully attached to the flash chip (W25Q128JVSQ) on the motherboard with a CH341A programmer and made several modifications using Intel FIT (e.g., allow software SPI write) without bricking. I was also able to boot to a modified GRUB shell where I attempted to edit many BIOS security related options like BIOS Guard/Lock, Flash Signature Override, ME FW Image Re-Flash, etc.

      Unfortunately, some of these modifications like to Intel BIOS Guard failed because it is fused into the PCH. Also,...

      HP Pavilion Gaming Laptop 15-ec2523nd - Dimm2 slot disabled after corrupt bios repair? Advice requested.
      by Bloodhoundje
      Hi everyone,

      I have been doing hardware repair as a hobby for some years now and recently decided to learn about repairing laptops as a fun challenge.

      I managed to get my hands on a "HP Pavilion Gaming 15-ec2523nd" notebook that only shows a white power LED and doesnt respond to anything.

      After initial testing I concluded the bios seems to be corrupted since all voltages are normal and there are no shorts. HP has a feature for a bios restore from USB with winkey+B for this model. This did not work.

      I have desoldered the bios chip (GigaDevice...
