    Lost bios password on HP Spectre Pro 13 G1 (X2F00EA)

    Hello,
    I hope I'm in the right place to make my request. Now that I've made my presentation, I'd like to make a request regarding a 2017 HP Spectre PRO 13 G1 laptop. I have a lost BIOS password. I really don't remember setting a password on this computer, and after changing the battery, the computer no longer wants to boot without it. Can you help me remove the password?
    I read on the forum that someone who had a model similar to mine managed to remove the password, so I figured with any luck I'd find some help here.
    Exact information:
    Product: X2F00EA
    Trade name: HP Spectre pro 13 G1
    Thank you

          Hello,

          From what I’ve read, it seems there is no simple method to reset the BIOS password. It would require reprogramming the BIOS chip.

          Could someone guide me through this process step by step, or is there a guide I may have missed?
          I already have a Raspberry Pi, what additional programmer should I buy?

          I am attaching photos of the motherboard so you have all the necessary information.
          I also attach the bios file corresponding to the machine if that can be useful

          The serial number is: CND6459G65

          Thank you in advance for your help.

              Don't post pictures unless asked....No one wastes time enlarging pictures, turning them, or using a magnifying glass to see numbers or letters..
              it makes our work easier, not yours..

              Dell Latitude 5530 BIOS Password Removal Attempted but I Broke the Laptop
              by TopPop
              Sorry for the long story. I have a Dell Latitude 5530 (i7) laptop (South Peak 15 MLK MB DDR4 203102-1 FK8VG$JA) with an admin BIOS password that I want to remove. Service Tag: HYKFPT3. Other than that the laptop worked OK.

              I found a CH341A Black and went looking for the BIOS chip on the motherboard. After trying to read one chip that was a firmware chip but not the BIOS I think I found the BIOS chip labeled Winbond 25Q256JVEN. Altogether I think I found 4 different firmware chips in the laptop. The BIOS chip is a WSON8 6x8. I used the CH341A, NeoProgrammer, and a cheap pogo pin clip...

              [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,...

              Hello Hello,

              I have been browsing the site and gotten so much useful info from here, including extremely helpful boardviews and several other very useful types of information.

              I'm trying to reset my bios without success.

              I tried :

              -I removed the BIOS battery and main battery. Waited for a long time but it didn't work. They already stated in the user manual that the password will not be reset even if the batteries...
