      I also have the same problem with this winbond chip. The error indicated the programmer didnt write the chip probably. Hence, your bios chip was corrupted. Therefore your computer won't able to turn it on. To fix it, you've to reflash the chip without any verification error. I'm also looking for a solution to reflash the chip without verification error. Did you flash via sam connector?

              don't use the clip...it gives errors...remove the bios chip from the board before writing or reading...use these programs..

                  I use the socket on the motherboard to program the bios chip. I removed the bios from 9 macbook only this one gave me an error.

                    🛠️ MSI GP75 Leopard MS-17E71 – No Display, Deep BIOS/EC Troubleshooting
                    by macabook
                    Hello everyone,

                    I’m currently working on a dead MSI GP75 Leopard (MS-17E71) motherboard (i7 CPU, NVIDIA GPU) with a no display/no backlight issue initially. After extensive investigation, I’m at a critical stage involving EC firmware, BIOS/ME region interaction, and possible deep corruption. I'm seeking advanced insight from anyone with experience in EC/BIOS sync issues or PCH-level behavior. Here’s a full breakdown:
                    🧩 Initial Issue
                    • Board powers on (fans spin, keyboard lights up and can be adjusted, caps lock led lights), but no display or backlight
                    • External display (HDMI) shows
                    ...

                    [Problem/ Request] Bricked TongFang GK7MRFR BIOS
                    by cr4zychriss
                    Hello everyone,
                    I am requesting urgent assistance to unbrick my laptop, a rebranded TongFang GK7MRFR chassis. The laptop is completely dead following a faulty in-OS EC flash attempt.
                    I have successfully used a CH341A programmer and can read/write/verify both flash chips, but using my backups/extractions has failed to restore power. The root cause is likely a corrupted Intel Management Engine (ME) region or an incompatible EC/BIOS pairing. System & Hardware Details

                    ASUS Zenbook Pro Duo UX8402ZA BIOS
                    by pirati
                    Hello everyone,

                    I recently bought a non-working Asus Zenbook Pro Duo OLED UX8402ZA that was listed for parts only. The seller mentioned that it had no display output but that the charging lights worked.

                    When the laptop arrived (without a charger and SSD), I connected a charger and confirmed with a multimeter that it was charging the battery. However, when I tried to power it on, only the backlight of the secondary display came on. There was no image, and it didn’t boot into the BIOS.

                    I decided to try flashing a new BIOS, but since I didn’t want to desolder...
