    Surface Pro X 1876 Bios corrupted

    Hello everyone, I happen to have a Microsoft Surface Pro X 1876 in my hands. It was brought to me by a friends which happen to have taken off the bios chip to test another motherboard. Upon putting back the bios chip on the original motherboard, The PC is stucked on Windows logo and won t boot to bios or anything. I suspect that the changes of bios chip somehow corrupted the firmware inside. Is the hypothesis correct?

    Also i extracted the bios inside the chip which was on Winbond 25R128JWPQ you can find the file attached if you can fix it (if possible, I would like some insight on how to build the bios correctly for Microsoft,please)
    Before submitting this thread , i took the bios submitted for Microsoft Surface Pro X 1876 with bios password and changed only the serial number. But there was a discrepancy : I found everywhere that the bios chip is a WinBond 26Q256 : so the bios size is 32 Mb. Whereas, the bios chip i have is a 16 Mb. I even went as far as taking a spare W26Q256 and input one of the working 32 Mb bios on it with just my serial number but it won t work. Thanks for the help given in advance

    Serial number is : 026444103453

      Thanks for your reply. So it seems the wrong chip was put on this motherboard . the motherboard is exactly the same as surface prox on ineternet and it is completely different of surface pro 7 motherboard. But still, i took a Winbond 26Q256 and put a working bios file from the forum and changed only the serial number inside. It should work no ? Am i missing something ?
