    We don't know how the BIOS was read out with a clip or by de soldering the chip.

    The experienced users in this forum will de solder all the chips in order not to damage anything.

    With the clip, resistors are all too likely to be damaged and then nothing works anymore.

    Which file do you mean? Each model has a different bios file, some 8MB, some 12MB, 16MB, 24MB, 32MB, 64MB...
