    ASUS Rog Strix Scar G18 G834JY-XS97 BIOS

    I'm trying to flash the bios chip but all the files on the asus website end in a 3 digit bios number. I'm not sure how to convert/trim/extract from these files to a file I can load with AsProgrammer to write to the chip.

      Sorry, I was trying to find an edit for my main post, but I will add the relevant data here...

      I was unable to get anywhere with BIOS guides, methods, resources and tools because ... one of the steps is to use ME Analyzer to get proper firmware file - ME Analyzer comes up with CSE ME 16.1.32.2418 which is not available in the repository.
      Machine model number: G8347JY-XS97
      Serial number: R8NRKD008963339
      Board model number: G634J-PMV-VGT (6050A3441302-MB-A01)

      No display. Laptop turns on for 1 minute then reboots (and repeats). No noise except fans. Attempting to flash BIOS in hopes it resolves the issue.
      dump file split because of upload limits

        The bios must be in ".bin" format and archived with winrar or 7zip...
        The bios chip must be unsoldered from the board before writing or reading..
        do not use the clip, you may have errors..if you do not have anything to unsolder it with,
        solder wires between the programmer and the bios chip..

        you need an SPI programmer...here is a video for example..https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DWWi...nnel=ThisIsHow
        Due to a lack of donations, server free space at a critical level, and possible closure of Bios Requests all donations are welcome, click:

          I have soldered wires to the chip. Are you saying that my current connection to the chip is bad? I've been using AsProgrammer and it has been detecting and working with the chip fine, as far as I can tell.
          I have attached the zipped .bin file

                Asus ROG Strix Scar G533qm with a G733qm Motherboard, can I modify the Bios to accept G533 Bios
                by glovecaps
                Hello,

                I have a Asus ROG Strix Scar 15 (G533QM) that had a dead motherboard (Graphics card dead) and after trying to fix the motherboard with no success, I bit the bullet on a sale for a new motherboard. I ordered a motherboard for the 15 inch model which is the one that I have, and when the motherboard arrived it wasn't for a little while that I saw it was from the 17 inch model.

                My question is, can I update the Bios on this G733 motherboard to a G533 Bios.

                The reason for wanting to do this is that the keyboard isn't working as it should, and I think this...

                [TUTORIAL] fix asus bios with bios from asus web support (by razor_amd)
                by razor_amd
                With ASUS, not everything is quite so simple. I will show you my way. It may be longer or harder but it is the right way to do it in my humble opinion.

                For example, you can have 3 similar ASUS motherboards, all being the same model, all of which will have different BIOS versions.

                I will give you an example and my version of preparing BIOS from ASUS website and in the process I am always cleaning Intel ME while doing it so you have fully cleaned BIOS, no DMI data, no password, nothing.

                This is the picture of 3 similar ASUS motherboards, all of them being X555LD...
