    How did you guys pull out the bios image? In windows using a software or using a tool like CH341A. To me it seems like 5520's bios chip is bigger, can't use the clip to mount to it. How do you pull it out?

                Friends, I have a Dell Latitude with a BIOS password. I downloaded the latest BIOS version here, but it didn't detect the NVMe SSDs. I'm attaching my backup to see if you can help me remove the password. I don't have the serial number because they only brought me the motherboard and a picture. I'll try to provide all the information. Please help!

                            Wrote your file to a new blank chip and it worked like a charm.

                              Always follow this order when flashing chips: Erase → Write → Verify
                              In any case, I'm glad you got it sorted out. You're welcome, and see you on the forum!

                                  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...

                                  So, i kinda spend significant ammount of the last couple of days trying to flash a new bios, and or unlocking the current bios password with little to no results.
                                  The whole thing started with it being the 8fc8 bios, i found the tools to unlock that but i needed a bios dump. So i pursued that, im at a point where i dessoudered the chip, and succesfully soudered it to the ch341, dumped whatever was on it.
                                  However, the tools supposed to unlock the 8fc8 say that there is no 8fc8 hex inside. And when i followed diffrent tutorials to just flash a new bios onto the chip i got stuck on the...

                                  Hi

                                  i have dell latitude E7270 with following symptoms:
                                  - takes long time to restart.
                                  - sometimes powers on and then off
                                  - sometimes while working it just dies,

                                  From googling online bios clean could possible resolve this?

                                  i was able to save bios and was going to try bios clean myself but get an below error when i drop it in ME analyzer.(unsure whether this sometimes occurs or could be due to bad/corrupt bios)

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

                                  Hello everyone in the community

                                  Dear Sir,
                                  I need help removing/unlocking the BIOS Service Tag password on my Dell Latitude 5520 laptop.
                                  Problem details:
                                  * Model: Dell Latitude 5520.
                                  * Board ID (from BIOS file): TGL MB 8L 19819-1 (Southpeak15).
                                  * Required Password Code: 3FE2 (BIOS Service Tag Lockout Code).
                                  * Service Tag: (HMHJQ93)
                                  * BIOS Status: I successfully modded the BIOS file and created FINAL_CLEANED_ME.bin (32MB) with a clean ME region (CSME 15.0), because the original dump was corrupt.
                                  What I need:
                                  Please help me generate...
