                Forgive my ignorance, but why do a lot of people ask for a bios? After submitting there old bios they receive a new one. Why? What is the symptom of the laptop when you have to change the bios?

                  Re: asus k42f 3.0

                  Bios is software and like all software it maybe corrupted. You suspect corrupted bios if you do not find any shorts on board and board does not react to power button although always voltages are present and EC controller as well as Southbridge raise the appropriate signals.
                  Sometimes the board tries to start although the bios is corrupted.
                  The best way to check a bios is by comparing the data signals with one on a working board with an oscilloscope.
                  Usually bios from sites of manufacturers are updates (not complete) and you have to merge the backup from your board with the update provided from the manufacturer.
                  Some manufacturers store in the bios info for the specific board as well as/or Microsoft OEM activation codes that you need to merge in the bios you downloaded from the manufacturers site from your bios backup.
                  That's I think is a short description of why people are asking for bios.

                                    BIOS file for ASUS F542UN laptop
                                    by Sebastian Codrean
                                    Hello to all of you! I need help with a BIOS file.
                                    The BIOS chip is fried on my Asus F542UN laptop, and I bought a new chip that needs programming. I have a CH341a programmer but I need a .bin BIOS file. On Asus support page the firmware has another extension, .310 and from reading on this forum I understand that that file is not complete BIOS.
                                    So, in short I need the "complete" BIOS .bin file to flash on the new chip. Another issue is that on back of the case the label says F542UN but on the sticker on the motherboard it's X542UN.

                                    Hi, my laptop wont boot at all
                                    With original bios no POST, only LED lights
                                    With alternative BIOS from model TP500LN (flashed via programmer) the notebook works again
                                    Some issues
                                    A- with bios from 500LN, it won't update from bios of model 500LA (from 500LN v203 to 500LA v300)
                                    B- If updated from 500LN version 203 to 300, the battery stops being recognized

                                    Things I tried

                                    1- Update / clear ME: Took the non working bios, made a backup, and did this: https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...theory/trouble...

                                    I used a tool called 'Smokeless-UMAF' to access usually hidden settings in the bios. I tweaked one or two 'safe' things but made the mistake of tweaking a lot of settings under 'USB/Thunderbolt Configurations' when I didn't know what they did. For...
