I also have the same problem after flashing a BIOS. The original BIOS backup seems to be corrupt. What can happen if I flash this BIOS in my computer?

post S/N, full name and model, motherboard model, etc.
post the contents of the bios chip even if it is corrupted..you need an SPI programmer...here is a video for example..https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DWWi...nnel=ThisIsHowDue to a lack of donations, server free space at a critical level, and possible closure of Bios Requests all donations are welcome, click:

With pleasure. Please find the details in the photos below. BIOS is also attached. Thanks!

(I also made another backup, but comparing with Notepad++, they were different, so not confident at all)Last edited by peste; 03-01-2025, 02:52 AM.Comment

I can't make another backup, as later I flashed a BIOS that was given to me supposedly to allow response code to challenge code (because my version was 4.1 and the challenge version is a long QR code with RSA-2048 signature). After that BIOS, the system doesn't boot up, only shows 2 amber, 2 white LEDs blinking.
I made three different backups prior to sending him, the one I attached here was the first backup. Which one do you need? The one that is loaded now is the one that I received from that guy (from vinafix). Do you want that one or one of my original backups?
I desoldered the BIOS chip and made the final programming in a separate board. But the original BIOS backup was made with clips...
I'm using this software:

I don't know if you (SMDFlea and peste) are the same person, but you are worth a donation. Is there a way for it?Comment

I'm back with a very similar board, only that in this case it's a i7 instead of a i5. The laptop shows a constar white LED (the one of charging, I assume) and even if it turns on, the screen remains black without any signal.
Attached is the original BIOS which is version 4.1 and supposedly the new one that I flashed was for downgrading to an earlier version (without the QR challenge code).
Serial number: 1J166599H

Hi everyone,
I have been doing hardware repair as a hobby for some years now and recently decided to learn about repairing laptops as a fun challenge.
I managed to get my hands on a "HP Pavilion Gaming 15-ec2523nd" notebook that only shows a white power LED and doesnt respond to anything.
After initial testing I concluded the bios seems to be corrupted since all voltages are normal and there are no shorts. HP has a feature for a bios restore from USB with winkey+B for this model. This did not work.
I have desoldered the bios chip (GigaDevice... -
Hi

- sometimes powers on and then off

As ME analyzer gave me an error i just decided to write bios with a cleaned bios from E7270 bios post.

Hello there.
I am working on a Lenovo Legion T5-26AMR5 desktop that currently has a corrupt BIOS and I have been unsuccessful thus far in trying to fix it myself.
History:
1. This computer came to me initially with an error message that said "BiInitializeLibrary failed 0xc0000001" or "0135 fan error". It would always be one of the two errors. It should be noted that when it produced the fan error, there was no physical problem with the fans. They were all spinning just fine.
I searched for this error online and discovered... -
Recently I used the official Lenovo bios updater software on my ThinkBook 13s G3 ACN (20YA0005GE). The updating process failed and I got a black screen after powering the device. Of course I did not make an own backup before using the Lenovo bios updater.
I bought a CH341A programmer and was able to make a connection to the chip while it is still soldered on board. But I did not realise that the chip was a 16MB size and selected the wrong size (8Mbit / 1 MByte) before reading the content of my chip. So the dump I did before erasing the chip is only 1MByte big. I fear that I lost... -
Hello,
i hope to find help her in the forum. It is a littlebit tricky. I searched many Days about disabling IntelME that was may major task. So i have a Clevo PD50PNN motherboard.
At first i tried to Backup the BIOS with tools direcly from Windows(normaly i am a Linux user). But no full success because not every part of the bios was readable. So i bought a modified CH341a for a Backup.
Backup worked but since the backup the Laptop is not booting anymore. I flashed the newest Version oft the BIOS with success, verfiy everything ok.
