    BIOS for ASUS ROG G713RQ

    Hi,

    I'm looking for a .bin file to flash the BIOS for:
    Notebook: ASUS ROG G713QR-HG121 (Strix G17).
    https://rog.asus.com/laptops/rog-str...desk_download/

    SN: MBNRKD004835486
    Motherboard model: G533-6050A3250203-MB-A01(A1)

    I have attached pics of the mobo and 2 IC's on it that look like BIOS chips, just not sure which one needs to be flashed.

    The flat chip has this on it
    Winbond M12JWPIQ
    2132
    6129
    M0061

    and the other one's model is Winbond 25Q16JWNIQ

    I thought the second one was the main BIOS chip until I saw this thread
    https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showth...ght=25Q16JWNIQ

    I also read this thread but got lost when I got to reading the BIOS file using WinHEX as the data is obviously completely different and whether I need to use the ME analyzer. I downloaded the BIOS file from ASUS website, G713QRAS.331 , but still not sure what to do with it but I know it won't work with any programmer.
    https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=96604

    The laptop powers on to no display and the Airplane Mode light on (stable) after blowing the fans. The mobo has been cleaned and both CPU (AMD Ryzen 9) and GPU have been repasted. The CPU had liquid thermal paste, which I'm not sure if it leaked to the mobo and caused any short circuits, but I noticed black lines on the CPU and heatsink when I took it off, like burns. Not sure if that has anything to do with the PC not POSTing. The user said Windows update was stuck before this happened and he is not sure if BIOS was updating (and got interrupted). So I thought I might as well flash the BIOS. No display on an external monitor either. Everything on the mobo was disconnected but no beeping or display.

    I'm expecting to receive the CH341A programmer tomorrow from Amazon. I read on the BIOS guides, methods, resources and tools thread that it isn't the best programmer, but I would like to give it a shot.

    The QR code on the mobo shows:
    A0T1YMC0238,MB47NRKD0007J8MB,G713QR,60NR05J0-MB3140,130,50EBF6490F0C

    I hope I have provided all the needed info.

    Thanks

      Hi,

      Thanks for your reply. This file is an 8MB bin while the one I extracted from Winbond W25Q16JWNIQ chip was a 2MB file. Like I mentioned in my OP, not sure which of the 2 chips was the BIOS. The other one was Winbond M12JWPIQ and was unreadable by the 2 software that I used with CH241A programmer so I'm not sure if that was the BIOS and if yes, what capacity it was.

      I'm keeping a copy of what you sent me. Appreciate your time and help man.

      Any other suggestions?

        First of all the bios provided by Fagoon Bhuiyan is 16MB (Megabytes) not 8MB, secondly W25Q16JWNIQ chip is your GPU VBIOS - don't play with it, and thirdly the other "flat chip" - WINBOND W74M12JWZPIQ (128Mbit /16MB WSON-8 6x5 1.8V) is your main bios SPI memory chip.

            Thanks for your reply and clarification Vesko. You're right, the file was 16MB not 8MB. Got confused with the number of .bin files I had for that mobo.

            Excuse my ignorance, but is there a way I can tell which BIOS is for the CPU and which is for the GPU? Does it have anything to do with where the chips are located on the mobo? Or do I simply google them? Also, I got another CH341A programmer with 1.8V adapter for next time.

              Thanks Oasis. Unfortunately, I did not have the PC anymore when you sent the file. But I will keep what you sent me for the future.

              Thanks again!

                [TUTORIAL] fix asus bios with bios from asus web support (by razor_amd)

                With ASUS, not everything is quite so simple. I will show you my way. It may be longer or harder but it is the right way to do it in my humble opinion.

                For example, you can have 3 similar ASUS motherboards, all being the same model, all of which will have different BIOS versions.

                I will give you an example and my version of preparing BIOS from ASUS website and in the process I am always cleaning Intel ME while doing it so you have fully cleaned BIOS, no DMI data, no password, nothing.

                This is the picture of 3 similar ASUS motherboards, all of them being X555LD...

                ASUS TUF GAMING Z790-PLUS WIFI - BIOS Help
                by grimacelord
                Hello,

                I have spent the last hour on this and I guess this is just over my head, so here I am.

                I have an ASUS TUF GAMING Z790-PLUS WIFI motherboard here that needs to have the BIOS updated in order to accept the latest CPUs.

                The BIOS chips seem to come as a set of two: GD25B64ESIG and GD25B128ESIG. My guess is one of them is a fail-safe for the main BIOS? I really don't know. Or one of them is ME and other is BIOS? I don't know.

                Anyway, I took dumps of both chips and then downloaded the latest update for this motherboard from ASUS's website...

                Asus ROG Ally X -RC72LA - changed hidden bios settings with 'Smokeless-UMAF', won't get past boot logo
                by throwaway327
                ASUS ROG Ally X - (Handheld Gaming PC)
                Model No: RC72LA
                Serial No: SBNVKD001014459

                Hi all, I've spent the past week digging through the forums and guides to try correct my foolish mistake of changing hidden settings while tinkering around, and to be honest my heads overloaded so I'm hoping you'll be able to help.

                I used a tool called 'Smokeless-UMAF' to access usually hidden settings in the bios. I tweaked one or two 'safe' things but made the mistake of tweaking a lot of settings under 'USB/Thunderbolt Configurations' when I didn't know what they did. For...

                Need real mobo dump of BIOS v402 for ASUS PRIME Z590-A - stock image no help
                by DynaxSC
                Hi,

                I have a serious problem to program the Z590 chipset SRAM with a Management Engine after replacing the chipset.
                The new chipset is factory new and is not containing any Management Engine. Any attempts to program it into the chipset under Windows ends with a failure (eg. Error 20: Management Engine Device not present, or something similar).
                Due to the lack of the ME several ports on the board, including all M.2 ports aren't working, booting OS works only on USB. So it's now other way, as to program the chipset with a ME.

                Usually on ASUS boards it worked...

                ASUS TP500LA BIOS request/repair/merge?
                by jbonavita
                Hi, my laptop wont boot at all
                With original bios no POST, only LED lights
                With alternative BIOS from model TP500LN (flashed via programmer) the notebook works again
                Some issues
                A- with bios from 500LN, it won't update from bios of model 500LA (from 500LN v203 to 500LA v300)
                B- If updated from 500LN version 203 to 300, the battery stops being recognized

                Things I tried

                1- Update / clear ME: Took the non working bios, made a backup, and did this: https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...theory/trouble...
