Alienware 17 R2 BIOS Recovery Help + BIOS Flash File Request

[cepha03]

Bought a cheap Alienware 17 R2 that doesn't POST. Once turned on, lights illuminate and goes through a continous boot loop of turning off and repeat. I've tried all the easy remedies (Replace RAM/Ctrl+Esc/Clear CMOS/ Replace CMOS/Formatting USB to FAT importing the .rcv file and holding End upon boot). Seems like the only solution now is to reflash the BIOS chip with a programmer. Problem is, there's two. I've provided pictures of both. I'm unable to discern which one I'm supposed to flash so any help would be greatly appreciated. Also, if anyone has it could I also have the BIOS flash file as I seemingly can't find it anywhere here.

Check the photos for more info! TIA

post S/N, full name and model, motherboard model, etc.

post the contents of the bios chip even if it is corrupted..

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


post them both..
