    Hello everyone,

    I have a Dell Latitude 5500 (8FC8), and I’m trying to unlock the BIOS admin password.

    Motherboard : EDC50 LA-901P Rev:1.0 (A00) from 2019.
    Bios chip : Winbond W25Q128JVSQ (16mb) – see attached

    I also have a Winbond W25Q64JVIQ chip and I'm unsure if I need a dump from it, or if the W25Q128JVSQ alone is sufficient.

    Thank you for your help!

                        Hello,
                        Sorry you upload the wrong file in the 8MB chip is the 00FDAA or 00FCAA found.
                        Your uploaded file is the main bios we need the file with the me region in it.

                          Your uploaded file is the main bios.
                          What program should I use to make necessary backup?

                              Program this file to your 8MB chip, and put your 16MB chip back.
                              Even after 3 years since you posted this, it still worked. Thank you

                                  Could I please get some help with the admin password (bios) and the Absolute locked removed?

                                  I attempted to find the information as I usually do in HexEditor, but can't find any info on the admin password or Absstate. Please let me know if anything else is required!

                                      Thank you very much for the help! Unfortunately the chip has been a extreme pain to remove from the motherboard with hot air, extra solder, and a iron... During the removal to program the chip, 2 copper sections that sit under the chip on the motherboard broke off. I am unable to get the laptop to work now I tried to get the 2nd laptop bios chip off, and after 15 minutes of putting resin, extra solder, then hot air, the chip refused to budge at all. So I plan to return these 3 laptops as unfinished. Thank you very much for the assistance! I would like to know how to do Dell laptops if at all possible. I only know Lenovos and Toughbooks currently.

                                          Hello, I need help with a Dell Latitude 5500. The BIOS is corrupted, it won't turn on. I installed another BIOS file, and it powers on, but it's locked with a password. I've attached the original BIOS file if you can help me repair it.

                                            Dell Latitude 5530 BIOS Password Removal Attempted but I Broke the Laptop

                                            Sorry for the long story. I have a Dell Latitude 5530 (i7) laptop (South Peak 15 MLK MB DDR4 203102-1 FK8VG$JA) with an admin BIOS password that I want to remove. Service Tag: HYKFPT3. Other than that the laptop worked OK.

                                            I found a CH341A Black and went looking for the BIOS chip on the motherboard. After trying to read one chip that was a firmware chip but not the BIOS I think I found the BIOS chip labeled Winbond 25Q256JVEN. Altogether I think I found 4 different firmware chips in the laptop. The BIOS chip is a WSON8 6x8. I used the CH341A, NeoProgrammer, and a cheap pogo pin clip...

                                            Hello,

                                            1.
                                            Dell Optiplex Micro 7020

                                            Reg Model: D15U

                                            Service Tag: 129LF54
                                            2.
                                            Dell Latitude 7430

                                            Reg Model:

                                            Service Tag: 8L0LG94


                                            I have 2 computers with admin password on BIOS. Standard code generators don't work on this new platform.

                                            I have dumped both SPI chips from the motherboard (16MB and 32MB). Could someone please help me remove the password or clean the ME Region?

                                            Attached are the original dumps. Thanks a lot for your help!
