    BIOS file for ASUS F542UN laptop

    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.

      Type as text the laptop serial number that is on the case label. Is X542UN on the long white barcode sticker on the motherboard

          I think this is the serial no: J7N0CV02036328D
          I also atached the pictures of both labels

              Asus laptop g14 GA401IH bios
              by zdargh
              Asus Laptop G14
              Motherboard model: GA401IH
              Rev 1.1
              Motherboard Part Number: 60NR0480-MB1203
              Serial Number: L731NRKD0006K1MB

              The computer shut down during a bios update and went into a boot loop. I've been able to backup the bios and flash a new bios (from the asus website, the ez flash update) using a SPI programmer. I got it to the point where it'll stay on for a few minutes before restarting and going into a boot loop that gets shorter and shorter.
              I've been able to factory reset it, but once I unlock the laptop and get to the desktop screen - the bootloop...

              Problems with the asus x456ua laptop bios chip
              by vixeko_
              They asked me to change the HDD to an SSD on this Asus laptop, in case the laptop already had problems such as it not turning on every time and the battery charge lasting very little.
              and perform the task successfully and clone the data from the hdd to the new ssd
              I managed to start windows on the ssd and everything was normal so I decided to restart it to measure the startup speed and when I did that instead of starting windows the laptop sent me to the bios
              I exited the bios to continue to windows but when the laptop turned off it did not turn on again, it was strange but...

              Gm501gm Bios laptop asus
              by Food1244
              I recently enabled secure boot and disabled csm on my laptop in the bios.
              Immediately it stopped working. Black screen (no backlight) , keyboard rgb worked, fan turned on. Battery led would flash 3 times then repeat.
              I got a ch341a reader thinking it's not posting so mightve corrupted the bios.
              The files I have are attached. One of the bios from the Asus website and one of what I got from the laptop chip (backup).
              Please help me use these to make a new bios I can use to get this to work...

              Notice to users of XGecu TL866II Plus / T48 / T56 / T76 programmers regarding BIOS backup file size
              by m1ch43lzm
              Hi everyone
              I noticed on the Xgpro software the BIOS backup files have extra bytes at the end when reading some chips, this is because the Xgpro software also reads the OTP region of those flash chips, and by default will append that region to the saved file
              Programmer models: XGecu TL866II Plus / T48 / T56 / T76

              Example: GD25LQ128D (1.8V), IC size is listed as 0x1000000 Bytes (16777216 bytes) + 0xC00 bytes, those extra 0xC00 bytes will be appended to the end of the saved file by default, resulting in a file size of 16780288 bytes
              There's also an extra OTP Secu.R...
