    need key combination to enter bios update on asus x551mav

    hi all. i have an asus x551mav with bios failure. it's power on when i push power button but no image, no post, no sound, nothing.
    bios chip is w25q64fw - with 1.8v power and my ch341a have 3.3 power
    the only way to flash bios is to enter in bios update from keyboard but i don't know key combination. i know that on acer it was fn+ esc, and on some asus is whas ctrl+home and power buton, but at this model of asus i didn't get in update mode.
    if anybody know how to enter in update menu please help me.
    thanks.

      [TUTORIAL] fix asus bios with bios from asus web support (by razor_amd)
      by razor_amd
      With ASUS, not everything is quite so simple. I will show you my way. It may be longer or harder but it is the right way to do it in my humble opinion.

      For example, you can have 3 similar ASUS motherboards, all being the same model, all of which will have different BIOS versions.

      I will give you an example and my version of preparing BIOS from ASUS website and in the process I am always cleaning Intel ME while doing it so you have fully cleaned BIOS, no DMI data, no password, nothing.

      This is the picture of 3 similar ASUS motherboards, all of them being X555LD...

      Asus ROG Ally X -RC72LA - changed hidden bios settings with 'Smokeless-UMAF', won't get past boot logo
      by throwaway327
      ASUS ROG Ally X - (Handheld Gaming PC)
      Model No: RC72LA
      Serial No: SBNVKD001014459

      Hi all, I've spent the past week digging through the forums and guides to try correct my foolish mistake of changing hidden settings while tinkering around, and to be honest my heads overloaded so I'm hoping you'll be able to help.

      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...

      Asus X541UV Windows update KB5063060 deleting BootOrder EFI environment variable? bios fix
      by davidebeatrici
      I had 3 people contact me in a week because Windows suddenly didn't boot:



      As you can see, all 3 are ASUS computers, but I believe the common factor is the BIOS being American Megatrends (AMIBIOS/APTIO).

      The first two recovered just fine after a restart, but the third one didn't and was brought to me. The model is F541UV (X541UV).
      Setup allows to add a boot option manually and the operating system boots just fine from both bootx64.efi and bootmgr.efi. However, there is no way whatsoever to save the option(s): upon a reboot the machine goes straight...

      Dell 9010 MT BIOS Update Always Fails
      by mikeybass
      Hi, I hope some one has some advice for me. I searched the forums but didn't see anything relevant. I acquired two identical Dell 9010 Mid Tower computers from a business office upgrade (they were going to throw them out). Both of them have the same motherboard (00F82W). One of them works flawlessly. The other one had a corrupted BIOS. I tried flashing numerous main BIOS and EC files from the internet, but none of them worked. I decided to copy the main BIOS and EC from the working 9010 computer and successfully flashed the corrupted BIOS. This got the computer able to boot again and run norm...
