    ASUS TP202NA Bricked after BIOS Update

    I've read the tutorial here on using the HEX editor to find the region where the DMI data starts, but I couldn't find the serial number anywhere in the BIOS dump. I also tried opening the dump file with FD44Editor, and I got an error message stating "Error parsing BIOS data. FD44 module not found." I'm wondering if I did something wrong or if this file just isn't supported by any of these methods. I was able to get the laptop working with a modified BIOS file from the ASUS website, but I'm unable to do anything with the corrupt dump file.

    Model number: TP202NA-OS21T
    Serial number: K6N0GR07X2725B
    Board number: TP202NAS

    I followed the tutorial below, but I'm stuck because I can't find the serial number anywhere in the file. I only see where the BIOS version is listed. According to the tutorial, the serial number should be close by. Is the serial number in the dump file encrypted or did I just get a bad readout?

        It's working, but it doesn't have the original serial number. The serial number shows up as SSN1234567890123456

        Also, I wasn't able to disable secure boot in BIOS

                                        Hi!
                                        Went dumpster-diving and found a bricked Lenovo P14S in trash, few weeks earlier. Symptoms - no screen, no POST, no beep, just keyboard LEDs flashing on powerup. Mute button+LED was responding though, and the display self-test was still working (via the key combo Ctrl+Fn+Power held for some seconds, see the Service manual).

                                        Incidentally, Windows 11 have recently started auto-flashing computer BIOS in our region. Even more suspiciously, Lenovo has released a BIOS update just few days before the PC was trashed. About a week later, the BIOS update image has been oficially marked...

                                        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

                                        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...

                                        HP Pavilion 15 bc400ns - Complete Black Screen - Only video on live usb
                                        by iZakre
                                        Hello everybody!

                                        To put you in context I recently replaced the battery from my HP Pavilion 15 bc400ns with a used one, everything was going good. The same day, I decided to update the BIOS, everything went good. The thing occurred after I let the battery drain iddling on Windows 11 for the second time to calibrate it that the screen did not turn on again, the computer was on but the screen did not turn, like it would not wake from hibernation. I decided to restart the computer but got no video.

                                        The thing is that I had installed TeamViewer and could log into the computer...
