        Do you have bios and EC backups.

          Not yet, I have ch341 to read bios. This board has 2 chips close to each other. 1 is 25q256jweq i think is bios. 2 is 25r256jweq i think is ec? I attached photo. Is this correct?
          Do you have motherboard schematic or source for schematic.

                For Badcaps Readers, Please note that I am hopefully going to present this same message to Lenovo to see if they have any insight to the matter as well and figured to share the entirety here for clarification.

                Lenovo ThinkCentre M75q Gen5 bios password
                by enlot
                Hello!

                I'm trying to remove the bios password of an Lenovo ThinkCentre M75q Gen5
                Unfortunately i cant find many resources about the Gen5 or the bios chip.

                Bios chip is XMC 25RU256CXIQ.
                SN is GM0QDZ77

                Let me know if there is an issue with the attached bios dump, as this is my first attempt and i dont have a wson8 clip
                Would be great if someone could decrypt the password from the dump, but if thats not possible i can attempt to flash the chip (hoping my crappy solder job works)...
