    Sorry for the confusion are you asking me to attach a file, or have you attached one (if you attached one, I don't see it)

    I'm not able to dump the BIOS because Windows does not load, there is a software glitch and it doesn't boot to desktop, and the boot order doesn't allow for USB (so I can't run any dump utilities).

      you need an SPI programmer...here is a video for example..https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DWWi...nnel=ThisIsHow

        I don't have a way to reprogram the eeprom. I didn't see everyone else posting their dump, my assumption was that someone could inject the serial number and UUID into a known working good SMC.

        I didn't want to have to rip this apart to change the mobo if I didn't have to.

          Hello, help me. I need to unlock the BIOS on my laptop. HP Spectre x360 Convertible 14-ea0520na (2Z6W0EA)

          ​ I have access to Windows. Is it possible to unlock it through Windows? Do I need to unsolder the chip?

                            Thread merged..next time look for a thread with the name and model, motherboard model of the laptop, and post there, if you can't find it, then make a new thread

                            Read the bios password guide ,use HP Unlocker/RCUnlocker to unlock it yourself -> https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...rces-and-tools

                              Hi guys,

                              If someone would be able to provide some expertise, I'd be very grateful.

                              BIOS Corruption - Cause
                              So I managed to corrupt my machine by installing linux and enrolling custom secure boot keys. I did choose to enroll the Microsoft keys as well, to prevent any potential bricking due to 3rd party drivers from HP being signed with those keys.
                              After doing that, and rebooting(it did boot, powerLED, fanspin etc.), the laptop did not give any video output on the LCD or video connectors. I think I was able to get in BIOS and trigger the beeper by pressing ESC....

                              Greetings badcaps community,

                              I havent done this for a long time and want to start it all again, after some evil and annyoing illness.
                              So I apologize in advance, if some phrases might sound a bit like gibberish or illogical to you.

                              Im trying my best to fully describe what I plan to achieve and hope I was choosing the right sub-forum for my new adventure.

                              I have a Elitebook 820 G1 and a Elitebook 840 G2 here.

                              These ask for a password when entering the BIOS, but boot just fine from the internal SSD.

                              I learned that desoldering...

                              by macabook
                              Hello everyone,

                              I’m currently working on a dead MSI GP75 Leopard (MS-17E71) motherboard (i7 CPU, NVIDIA GPU) with a no display/no backlight issue initially. After extensive investigation, I’m at a critical stage involving EC firmware, BIOS/ME region interaction, and possible deep corruption. I'm seeking advanced insight from anyone with experience in EC/BIOS sync issues or PCH-level behavior. Here’s a full breakdown:
                              🧩 Initial Issue
                              • Board powers on (fans spin, keyboard lights up and can be adjusted, caps lock led lights), but no display or backlight
                              • External display (HDMI) shows
                              ...

                              Elitebook 850 G5 BIOS bricked
                              by Guest
                              Hello,

                              I have an EliteBook 850 G5. After a Windows update, including a BIOS update, the notebook turns on, but the screen remains black, and the fans spin at high speed—nothing else happens.

                              I assume the BIOS update failed, so I searched for the BIOS chip.

                              I found a Winbond chip located between the RAM and the hard drive, which has a size of 32 MB.

                              However, the BIOS update available on HP's website is only 17 MB in size. I used the update version that was previously installed when the notebook was still working.

                              Can the corrupted...
