    Samsung NP300V5A-A0DUK bios

    Hi All,

    I've got the above laptop and it seems to be stuck in a bios recovery loop. It will actively search the CD/DVD drive every boot if there's a disc inserted.

    I have searched high and low on the internet, and now my fingers are sore!

    Does anyone have the bios for this laptop?

    Further board info:

    model np300v5a - a0duk

    Board id ba92 08469b

    bios ver 08fi - would need probably 10FI, bios downgrade protection...

    label reads 08FI BA92-08469B 0622

    Many thanks

        What did you use to dump the rom? I have had to remove SVP PW's from IBM Thinkpads in the past, but have never played with bios dumps....

        The spec comparison of the two boards seems too far apart for success tho:-(.

        @Highpulse - I hate HP too, maybe they are one and the same!

        Have you got that rom handy:-)?

            Thanks for a great tool. I have had a play with it on a live system and confirmed that it does do what it says!! Unfortunately the Samsung I'm working on is a non-booter:-(.

            I have researched a way to read an write to the bios chips directly. I'm currently trialling Rayners SPIPGM software with a homemade LPT interface. The initial results are very positive.

              idoneus i had this problem yesterday , and in the end was a configuration on the bios , disable EFI if running on windows 7 , it was always in loop during post due to not finding or start thru the hdd .
              in any case wich is the size of your rom , i got 2 different rom , one with 4MB and another with 8mb , wich one is yours ?
