    Samsung XE300TZC AKA ATIV TAB 3

    This tablet is dead as it doesn't boot or allow to enter bios.
    One or two times I was able to make it boot somewhere where I saw the error:

    security version mismatch detected. make sure you are updating to a new version of the system firmware or contact your support representative
    Error code = 0x10000001
    wait 3 seconds to restart

    Typical solution found online: Replace the motherboard.

    So I'm wondering if a BIOS dump file can be found so I try to flash/reporgram the BIOS

    Thanks

      More better if you post your original dump...

      from this site i got the bios version,
      http://webcache.googleusercontent.co...&ct=clnk&gl=id

      your bios version : P??ADC
      Now you can download the update bios from samsung site,

      http://sbuservice.samsungmobile.com/...WIN_P07ADC.exe

      but... extracting from ITEM_20140304_21325_WIN_P07ADC.exe, you got BIOS REGION ONLY, no ME region ,no decript region etc..

      so if you hard to find other dump, post your original and someone can repair for you here..

        Samsung Series 9 - BIOS issue
        by Kjell
        After installing Linux, I can no longer enter the BIOS of my Samsung Series 9 (NP900X3C) laptop. When pressing [F2] during boot I simply get a black screen. Same thing when pressing [F10] and choosing "Setup" from the "App Menu" tab. Apparently this is a relatively common issue with Samsung laptops of that generation, but unfortunately i haven't been able to resolve the issue (yet).

        Things i've tried so far; reinstalled Windows 10, checked for redundant boot entries, tried to factory reset using the emergency keyhole, attempted to clear the NVRAM by physically...

        ASUS ZenBook UX480F : need help with cleaning the ME region of my BIOS dump
        by mkdj
        Dear all,
        I have a ASUS ZenBook UX480F with the following symptoms:



        I suspect it is a BIOS issue. So I decided to try to clean the ME region. I followed the guide on win-raid, and I believe I have done everything correctly. My problem is: when I open the outimage.bin in ME Analyzer, it says that it is Extracted, and not Region, Extracted as it should be. Is it normal, or did I do something not correctly? This is my first experience editing BIOS files.

        I would appreciate if someone could take time to explain the issue, so that I can learn. But I would...

        I need a BIOS dump for the Samsung S49CG934SU monitor
        by Habble7
        The Samsung S49CG934SU monitor does not power on - no LED indicator activity and no response to power button. However, when 21V power is connected, it immediately draws 0.8A of current with no display output. The motherboard processor gets warm, and there is continuous reading activity from the W25Q128BV BIOS chip.

        Suspected Cause:
        I suspect the BIOS may have been corrupted during a power interruption while updating the firmware. The official website provides firmware updates, but they can only be installed via USB flash drive.

        Troubleshooting Attempts:

        Bricked bios from a legion y540-15irh (81sx) . Needing dmi/clean me region maybe
        by Lexsmash85
        Edit: apologies, I only need help with the DMI info.. I thought the ME region would need attention in order to recover from bricked state but maybe I misunderstood.

        Im a novice to this experience but in short, I performed a backlash from the latest and final bios firmware BHCN45WW to BHCN26WW hoping that would solve an issue with keyboard functionality failing after an update. Ended up hanging during flash process and then system would no longer POST on reboot.

        USB recovery process didn't seem to take. So today I successfully managed to get the BIOS dump from my machine...
