    dell g3 g5 bios Help

    Hi All

    i bought a broken dell g3 laptop and found out the cpu was dead
    this laptop has 10th gen with rtx2060

    so i got another motherboard 10th gen with rtx2070

    but the motherboard just keeps boot looping
    so i took the chip out 16mb one and it was completely dead

    so i took of the chips 16mb and the 8mb one of the old motherboard

    the chips are different brands

    old motherboard has

    winbond w25q64jv 8mb
    and
    mx25l12872f 16mb

    new motherboard has
    XM25QH64A 8mb
    and
    XM25QH128A 16mb

    on data sheet they look the same with same pinouts and sync timings
    so i assume i can use them ?

    the laptop is a 3g but the rtx 2070 board comes from a 5g right ?
    correct me if am wrong ?

    but i tried alot of bios on this forum and non of the are working for me

    some wont boot, some are booting instantly plug in power and fires up but no display and full fan speed

    and some are responding to my power button push

    but all have one thing in common is that they full fan spin and no display

    is there anyone who can help me with a bios for my problem ?

    first 2 pictures are form the Dead Motherboard

    and second 2 are from the new Motherboard

    please,please,please help me ?

    Thanks

      Dell Latitude 5431 issues with dumping bios
      by Sathsul
      So, i kinda spend significant ammount of the last couple of days trying to flash a new bios, and or unlocking the current bios password with little to no results.
      The whole thing started with it being the 8fc8 bios, i found the tools to unlock that but i needed a bios dump. So i pursued that, im at a point where i dessoudered the chip, and succesfully soudered it to the ch341, dumped whatever was on it.
      However, the tools supposed to unlock the 8fc8 say that there is no 8fc8 hex inside. And when i followed diffrent tutorials to just flash a new bios onto the chip i got stuck on the...

      Dell 3080 Micro BIOS dead
      by tracks
      Hello all,

      I have a Dell 3080 Micro with a problem. As it is right now, it seems to be boot looping, maybe... There's no output, just fan on and power led lights up and blinks off every 2 seconds or so.
      Previous owner told me he bought it with a BIOS password, he tried to use a CH341A programmer with some random test clip and tried to mess with it while it was powered on. Now it won't boot.

      I tried to dump the bios with an EZP2023+ but I can't get a consistent read. Every time the dump is different, so it's unusable. I think the BIOS chip is fried.

      Dell Latitude 5400 Chromebook UEFI bios
      by jhanra
      Hi there masters, recently i got a dell 5400 chromebook and wanted to install windows, i searched the internet and i found out other people also wanting a UEFI bios for this model, i searched there is a R/W legacy, but there are bugs like keyboard/trackpad not working, and hard to install.

      so i decided to try to port one, this bios is based on dell 5400 windows version, i am testing this bios for a week now an found only a little to no bug at all in windows 10, or only a minor issue
      in windows 11 sound driver compatibility, but overall its ok, for me i can deal with it, 😅😅😅...
