    Asus Notebook GA401I, GA401 IV-BR9N6 bios needed

    Hello! After an automatic windows update - it went through a bios update that has put my laptop into a boot loop that gets shorter and shorter until it just powers on and off. I can make it almost to the login screen and I tried to start the factory reset, but it just keeps entering the bootloop.

    It completely bricked at some point, so I pull the bios, but I couldn't get the DMI and windows key information to build a new one (I tried one of the guides and I can't find it), I ended up just flashing it with the ezupdate file from the asus website using a ch3a1a SPI programmer (also read the bios with this) and it actually got it out of the bricked state, but back to the progressively shorter boot loop.

    I think if someone could build a working bios for me, that would solve the issue and I would be eternally thankful! I'm so tired of working on this thing.

    Some other notes: I had a local shop fix it before from this same problem, but the hdmi port wasn't working after they flashed it, so I let it update to the newest bios version (220) and here we are.

    try. It seems you are using wrong bios update, from GA401IH platform.

      I flashed this one and it's the same thing, it'll act normal for about a minute and then go into a boot loop, each boot getting shorter and shorter until it's just a black screen but "on"
