            Used a Raspberry Pi for SPI ROM in the past. Now I've got the RT809F because I had some computer displays firmware to flash. Works nice with the VGA ISP and has a great support for all kind of SPI/I2C ROM.
            You'll have to buy the PEB-1 extension if you want to flash some EC internal ROM, but I'm not sure the support is very good.
            Also I wanted to flash some PIC but the support is very limited too.

              The best and cheap is EZP2010 not EZP2013 that is a fake.
              This programmer work with all common bios chip , and works with 1.8v chip with
              adaptor.
              If you need to programm old bios and microcontroller see genius G840 .
              RT809F and similar are usefull to programm EC .

                        How do you guys deal with "file is too long" message after extracting a bios from an exe file?

                          most exe files dont contain a complete bios.

                            (How do you guys deal with "file is too long" message after extracting a bios from an exe file?)
                            First upload the file then i will explain in some cases there are a tail that could just be cut off comparing it to the original bios file ending also some updates not a complete file or some even have the ec and bios togetter and need to be cut out ....some cases not that's why original file is always needed to compare or even needed to cut out the original ME REGION or DMI INFO

                              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...

                              My pc updated bios through Windows Update and I was greeted with BLACK SCREEN WITH CPU FAN MAX SPEED. I don't think there is even a screen signal, because it triggers my monitor for a couple seconds and then the monitor turns off. I tried the other outputs as well.
                              1. I tried clearing bios, resetting bios, removed the CMOS battery, removed m.2 ssd, wifi, and ram. Still black screen with CPU fan blasting.
                              2. I tried using the Lenovo BIOS CD and BIOS USB, but neither worked. At least I couldn't get anything to work.
                              3. I could only locate two chips that look like bios chips. Could someone verify this

                              Thinkpad t480s, completely dead after BIOS flash using CH341A programmer
                              by what_1282105
                              Following this guide (https://www.reddit.com/r/thinkpad/co...g_and_flashing) i re-flashed my t480s BIOS using an external (CH341A) programmer. The flash didnt work, so i reverted back to my BIOS backup successfully. The BIOS in the chip and the BIOS backup file are identical according to windows' file compare. The revert, however, didnt work: the only thing the computer does is flash the power button 3 times when AC power is connected. I've tried unplugging the CMOS battery, holding the reset button and holding down the power button- no signs of life....
