Having trouble disabling RAM for Thinkpad E14 Gen 3 AMD!
Specs:
E14 Gen 3 with AMD
20Y7-CTO1WW
Onboard RAM defect
Hey all, I am trying to disable the onboard RAM on this 8 core AMD Thinkpad. I've hooked up the CH341A at 3.3V (not 1.8V because yolo). The chip I'm reading off of is a Winbond 74m25jweiq 32MB chip. I can't select the 74xx chip in any of the CH34 programmers I've tried so I just select a different Winbond chip that is 32MB. I wrote the bios to a file and verified it, modded it with BIOS memory SPD removal tool and flashed it back onto the board. When I verify it now, it errors and the laptop won't boot anymore. I've attached the original bios dump and the modified bios. If anyone has the correct bios or any advice on how to flash it properly please tell me! Thanks in advance
