    Asus X550LB power on then off fixed.Working dump

    Had this laptop, X550LB, Core i7, nVidia GT740m. It powered on then back off. No short. Remove CMOS battery and it stayed on, but with no display and WLAN led blinking.

    Cause: Corrupted BIOS.
    Attached working dump.

      Thank you very much! It's just what I was looking for.
      Notebook was turning on auto-powered and didn't initialize, consuming current about 0,5A statically.
      Power, CapsLock and NumLock LEDs were on.
      With this dump it became alive again!

        Too little, too late, but don't know, don't care.

        You are experienced enough that you know than when a no power or no picture rolls into the shop fresh with no obvious physical damage, battery missing or good condition and no burns, no smoke, no skid marks, no major electrical shorts, a fresh BIOS flash is the first thing you do.

          Request BIOS dump for ASUS FA617NS-A16.R77600
          by kcp0085
          Aloha, I'm trying to recover my ASUS TUF Gaming A16 (FA617NS-A16.R77600)
          I have the CH341A programmer and can flash the BIOS chip directly. I need a verified full .bin dump (2MB or full SPI region) for this specific model.

          Specs:
          - ASUS TUF FA617NS-A16
          - CPU: AMD Ryzen 7
          - BIOS chip: Winbond W25Q16JVSIQ (2MB)

          If anyone has a full dump or can share from a working unit, it would be hugely appreciated.

          Thanks in advance!​

          Request for MX25VB8035F (1MB) Firmware Dump – Asus TUF Gaming H670-Pro
          by Tamo Neko
          Hello everyone,

          I'm working on an Asus TUF Gaming H670-Pro motherboard and need help finding a firmware dump for the MX25VB8035F (1MB) SPI flash chip.

          What Happened:
          I mistakenly removed and erased this 1MB chip, thinking it was part of the main BIOS.
          • I later found that the board has two main BIOS chips (8MB + 16MB), which I have backups for.
          • My backup for the MX25VB8035F chip is just an empty 1MB segment filled with FFs, meaning I have no valid data to restore.
          What I Need:
          • A firmware dump for the MX25VB8035F chip from the same motherboard (or a compatible
          ...
