    Until files are recovered on the forums, here is my copy I had stored away to help those who still need it. Once files have been recovered it can then be deleted.

              I'm trying to run the patch, but it returns an error saying "wa nakit-an ang intel signature."

              I don't know where the error is. I'll tell you what I'm doing in case anyone can help.
              The computer is a Dell D15U, OptiPlex Micro Plus 7020. It's functional, but has a BIOS password (8FC8). I read the 25R256 chip (32MB) with an SVOD4. When I run the patch, I get the error mentioned above.

              Thank you very much for your help.

                Software looked for 5AA5F00F03 in your dump, and didn't find it.
                Are you sure, you picked the right chip.

                      I've already found the error. There were actually two errors.
                      The first was that I was using the wrong BIOS. I had to work with the smaller one, the 16MB one.
                      And the second error was that the first dump of that BIOS I used was with tweezers without desoldering it. And it seems the binary file was incorrect.

                      Everything's fine now. Thank you all very much.

                            Dell E6400 PT434 type Battery Charging Stuck at 1%. Battery Pinouts?
                            by Bowline
                            My question pertains to understanding the control circuity inside a Dell PT434 type battery used in Dell E6400, E6410 and other Dell notebooks?

                            Does anyone have a circuit diagram for the inside of a Dell PT434 battery and/or a description of how the control lines work to control this battery?

                            My reason for asking is I have a battery which I cannot get to charge beyond 1% in a Dell E6410 or E6400.
                            The LED bar graph charge indicator on the battery shows one LED lighted when the info button is pressed.
                            I have tried multiple different Dell power adapters. My Dell...

                            Dell Optiplex 5000 8fc8 with chip W25Q128JVSN
                            by al_b0sni
                            Hey, i bought a Dell Optiplex 5000 8fc8 with chip W25Q128JVSN.
                            I also used the CH341A programmer but my usb cable (i didnt attach it directly into the pc, i used a cable between) was corrupted. So i made a dump. Then i removed the password but unfortunately the dump had a loose contact so it was corrupted. And i've also overwrited the chip and now i dont have any dump anymore.

                            Can someone help me? I am stuck since hours and i cannot find any bin file anywhere.
                            I tried to extract the EXE for BIOS installation from dell and also the rcv file but i didn't manage to do that....

                            [REQUEST] Dell G3 3579 BIOS Password & AMI Protected Range/BIOS Guard Unlock
                            by zenius
                            Hello, I have an old Dell G3 3579 (ST: 2WQ7LP2-8FC8) with a newer 8FC8 BIOS password. I have successfully attached to the flash chip (W25Q128JVSQ) on the motherboard with a CH341A programmer and made several modifications using Intel FIT (e.g., allow software SPI write) without bricking. I was also able to boot to a modified GRUB shell where I attempted to edit many BIOS security related options like BIOS Guard/Lock, Flash Signature Override, ME FW Image Re-Flash, etc.

                            Unfortunately, some of these modifications like to Intel BIOS Guard failed because it is fused into the PCH. Also,...

                            Dell Latitude 5410 - Stuck at "Dell Security Manager" - 8FC8
                            by aquanutz
                            Does anyone have experience in generating the master bios password for Dell Latitude 5410 with the 8FC8 tag?

                            #63PR273-8FC8

                            Can't actually boot the laptop to dump the bios, it immediately goes to the "Dell Security Manager" screen asking for a password.

                            Any help is greatly apprecaited.
