    Copyright (c) 2007 - 2014, Intel Corporation. All rights reserved.
    
    
    Error 201: [FPTw64.exe] cannot be run on the current platform.
    Please contact your vendor.
    I dont know how to continue.. am grateful for help!

        It will be much better to use a Hardware Programmer for that job.

          Re: Surface 3 BIOS dump for BIOS PW

          Is there a way to get the dump.bin without opening up the surface? Just with software on windows?

              All you need is a proper dump with fptw and then you can decrypt the password. Instead of opening the screen, soldering chip etc.

                    You used the wrong software. You would need to try ME95, ME11 and TXE2 windows versions. I don't know what "surface 3" exactly means in your case so... Just try all of them.

                      I tried to Backup bios with Universal Bios Backup tool since i couldnt manage to do it with the other ones..

                      I hope it has the right stuff in it!

                          Look at your machine. There's model information written there. Some 4 digit code for example?

                              So TXE2 I think.. Did you try that?

                              Are you trying it in windows or windows installation media?
                              If the first, are you running cmd as admin?

                                  The command is correct. The question was, are you using the correct .exe file? You probably need TXE2 package instead of ME95 package which you used previously.
                                  Thatswhy I've told you to try TXE2, ME95 and ME11 because one of them must work.

                                  And yes, in installation media you can open cmd and do it from there. Atleast that is what I do all the time.

                                        I need a BIOS dump for the Samsung S49CG934SU monitor
                                        by Habble7
                                        The Samsung S49CG934SU monitor does not power on - no LED indicator activity and no response to power button. However, when 21V power is connected, it immediately draws 0.8A of current with no display output. The motherboard processor gets warm, and there is continuous reading activity from the W25Q128BV BIOS chip.

                                        Suspected Cause:
                                        I suspect the BIOS may have been corrupted during a power interruption while updating the firmware. The official website provides firmware updates, but they can only be installed via USB flash drive.

                                        Troubleshooting Attempts:

                                        Surface Pro 9 2038 BB_W MB SRLFP Intel Core i7-1255Usn 0f01juw23133bf need bios dump

                                        Hello, thanks for your reply, well you see I think I might have a corrupted bios because when I power on the surface pro 9 I get the windows logo comes on twice and then it turns off.

                                        I add the native BIOS, thanks!...

                                        MSI PRO B660M-G DDR4 - real bios dump from board needed (no stock bios)
                                        by DynaxSC
                                        Hi, I have an MSI PRO B660M-G DDR4 board with damaged BIOS and i need a bios dump from a real board, along with MAC, UUID and Serial Number info (eg. a BIOS screenshot and pictures from the board stickers).

                                        I need to reconstruct the bios on my board, based on another bios image form a real board - meaning a bios image containing MAC address, UUID and Serial number. A stock BIOS is not suffiecient, as it is impossible to discover where the MAC, UUID and SerialNumber are stored. Tried with a similar board, but there are too much differences, and the stock BIOS is missing a lot of...

                                        Surface book 3 (1907) bios dump
                                        by Kotp384
                                        Hello everyone I really need a BIOS dump of surface book 3 (1907) 25R128jwpq. I just turned off the device and it didn't turn on anymore, it doesn't show any signs of life. Only the charging indicator lights up and goes out when the power button is pressed for a long time. All the voltages on the board are in order, there is a theory that the BIOS is somehow lost.

                                        I will be grateful for any help
