ASUS TUF Dash F15 FX517ZM da0njkmbae0

[hunmike000]

The bios chip of my ASUS TUF Dash F15 FX517ZM (motherboard da0njkmbae0 rev e) has blown up (seen another post like this for a slightly different model so it seems like a trend).
Can somebody help me acquiring/building a working 32MB bios bin file (i am ok to flash it with CH341) for it please?
Serial: N4NRCX02X264157
(Would love to learn how to make a working bios from e.g. what asus provides with bios update but i understand its an incomplete file. Even if i would get
a region file i don't know what to do with it )

I just realized that its not the BIOS chip that has blown up but a 32kbyte EEPROM (EEPROM CAT24C256WI-GT3 SOIC8 8P) [SU200 on ASUS _TUF_Gaming_F15_FX507ZM_60NR09A0_MB2010_FX507ZM_MB_0M_I7_12700H (.FZ).fz] so its unknown contents are forever gone.
Haven't yet tried to read BIOS chip (GD25R256E) as i need to get some tools for QFN8.
Anybody willing to dump the small EEPROM's contents for me? :cry:

Thanks Oasis39!

I finally got the right header for my CH341 programmer to burn QFN chips.

I checked the image you have provided via the Intel Engine & Graphics Firmware Analysis Tool which showed me that the File System State is "Initialized" so I need to clear the ME region to get it into "Configured" state.

I attempted to clean the ME region using MFIT Intel tool. I can decompose the image you have given but unfortunately I am getting the following errors when I try to assemble the image.bin even when I am not touching the ME part (simple decompose the build):

Start decompose 'D:/bios/latest badcap/FX517ZM.bin' image.
MFIT version used to build the image: 16.0.15.1662
WARNING : Skipping ROMB. Missing...

Would you happen to know how to deal with this?

Many thanks!

good afternoon, does anyone have the bios for this ASUS TUF Dash F15 FX517ZM with DANJKMB1AA0 REV:A board?

post the original bios even if it is corrupted, post S/N...etc...

The detail, friend, is that the bios chip was damaged and the programmer does not recognize it, so I asked if any colleague has it since I got the chip but I need the information to record it. I put the one they sent but it does not recognize the nvme disk.

Hello all! I have an asus TUF Dash F15 (FX517ZM) with a corrupt bios. I tested by flashing the file posted here earlier in the thread and it booted. I've been doing my best looking to see if I could fix the corrupted bios myself but to no success. Would appreciate anyone who could help with it! I am attaching the original corrupted bios I dumped.

appreciate it! I'll reflash after work and let you know if it works!

Looks like this chip just nuked itself.. gets to 170C trying to press power button, probably from the heat from soldering which is unfortunate. checked to make sure I didn't knock a resistor or capacitor but its all in the right spot. Ordering a new chip and I'll get back in a couple of weeks

Hi, I just got my Replacement Chip and flashed this file. Verified and made sure it was the correct file beforehand. Unfortunately does not boot and has same symptoms.

Hello everyone! 😊

I hope you're all doing great. I'm kindly reaching out to see if anyone could help me with a BIOS file for an ASUS FX517ZM-HF087W laptop, motherboard model DANJKMB1AA0.

Here are the details:
Serial Number: N7NRCX03P187284
CN: ZWFW
MFD: 2022-07

Unfortunately, I can't share the original BIOS dump because the EEPROM chip is damaged and unreadable. I already tried using a new chip with a firmware I found here in the forum, but the laptop doesn't show the GPU, and USB and NVMe are not recognized either.

I would be very grateful if someone could help me with a working BIOS. I truly need it, and any help would mean a lot. Thanks so much in advance! 🙏
