    HP 450 X8M build bios

    Motherboard model X8M-6L bios S71
    The motherboard starts but it is not possible to use the USB ports to install the operating system. I inserted an SSD with Win11 installed and using the restore function the USB ports are visible in the shell but if I start setup the system freezes. I noticed that there are two chips, both 16,328 KB, one is the bios and the other the ec. But from the size of the EC chip it is clear that it probably contains a copy of the bios. Probably due to different versions (it is likely that the bios and the ec must be of the same version, by reprogramming both chips, the system updates the bios taking it from the ec chip. I do not exclude that there may be hardware problems however I would like to rebuild the bios and I downloaded the file from the manufacturer's website (sp149824), however I was unable to decrypt the 16,871KB file S71_011900.bin using the methods I know (this was done by unpacking the exe) while if I create a recovery USB I see a file in the folder DEVFW named firmware.bin of 32.839.bin
    There is a method to extract both bios and ec from the manufacturer's site.

    Methods to extract the bios are

    [Guide] How to extract ready for programming dump from HP update executable file
    https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...-file?t=121948

    The EC isnt something that can be extracted. As far as i know it would have to be be built,but not possible as you can`t generate the checksums.You can use the EC dump from another dump,and reset the bios to manufacturing mode.Post both of your backups,and please include the full laptop model number and serial as per the rules.

      Hi
      I read the guides on the link but it seems to me that a similar situation is not reported. I attach the unzipped exe file of the manufacturer's bios. When I run the HpFirmwareUpdRec file the only possibility is to create a bootable USB.

        You must post a backup bios file and serial number, not a new file from HP.

      I needed to know if it is possible to extract and decrypt this type of .bin file present in the bios on the manufacturer's website to reconstruct a new bios to configure and understand what type of extraction the application dedicated to the installation does which is not Insyde type.......

        In theory, if we exclude the part that concerns the information on the card (DMI), everything else should be possible to create without the old bios as happens during the production and configuration phase.

            I'm sorry but the link you posted doesn't contain anything about what I asked for or I can't find it, can you tell me exactly where it is explained?

              NT955XED (Samsung Galaxy Book2 Pro - 15.6) BIOS dump file Request
              by Citymin
              Hi all,

              My Samsung Galaxy Book 2 Pro 15.6-inch laptop has no display and won't boot.
              The charging red LED lights up, but the charging screen doesn't show any indication.
              When I press the power button, the blue LED cycles on and off three times, then the screen doesn't turn on, and the device won't boot.
              (I've tried removing the battery and resetting the device, but the issue persists.)

              NoteBook Model name : Samsung NT955XED-KK51G(Galaxy book2 pro, i5-1240p, 15.6inch AMOLED)
              PCB model name : Venus2-15-5G(REV1.2), Venus2-15 ADL NPC

              Lenovo ThinkStation P520 BIOS file needed
              by Forest79
              Hello,

              I got a Lenovo ThinkStation P520 (Type 30BF) from a friend, asking me for a repair. Windows 11 offered a firmware upgrade as an optional update, and it failed.
              The emergency flash procedure from the hardware manual has also failed. So, I asked an acquaintance with better skills to flash the BIOS directly.

              However, the chip (a Macronix MX25L25673GMI-08G) has a size of 32 MB, and the BIOS file from the Lenovo website (extracted with UEFITool) has a little more than 16 MB. Thus, the software my acquaintance used (SiberiaProg v1.45, with a CH341A Programmer)...

              Help to get Lenovo BIOS bin file for Thinkpad T560
              by maanee11
              Hello Everyone,

              I have Thinkpad T560 Which has corrupted BIOS. I have acquired Ch341A SPI flasher to program the BIOS externally. I see that to program the BIOS, i need a bin file for the BIOS. I was able to extract the .exe file of BIOS from Lenovo given here in this link:

              https://pcsupport.lenovo.com/au/en/p...me=BIOS%2FUEFI

              In the extracted files, I see that BIOS containing file has extension .FL1 and I need to extract or convert it...

              BIOS file for ASUS F542UN laptop
              by Sebastian Codrean
              Hello to all of you! I need help with a BIOS file.
              The BIOS chip is fried on my Asus F542UN laptop, and I bought a new chip that needs programming. I have a CH341a programmer but I need a .bin BIOS file. On Asus support page the firmware has another extension, .310 and from reading on this forum I understand that that file is not complete BIOS.
              So, in short I need the "complete" BIOS .bin file to flash on the new chip. Another issue is that on back of the case the label says F542UN but on the sticker on the motherboard it's X542UN.

              BIOS file (.BIN) for semi-Bricked IdeaPad 3-14ALC6
              by Fr33man
              Hello everyone,

              I soft BRICKED my Lenovo IdeaPad laptop (black screen with led lights on, responsive keyboard backlight, fans spinning) after messing about with a Github tool called Smokeless. I am now attempting to reflash the bios through USB, but I am not sure if I extracted the correct BIOS ROM file to flash, and I also could not find the correct file name to rename it to (GLCrisis.bin, GLCN.bin, Currom.bin??). In addition to attempting to reflash the Bios with a USB, I have also performed the following activities:
              *Novo button power on
              *Disconnected internal battery...
