Hello.
I also need a BIOS cleaned/rebuilt for Surface 7 pro i5/8/256 serial# 067245401453
This device is flashing windows logo for about 2 seconds then shuts off.
I have tried the guide for cleaning BIOS, but I ran into issues.
1. Using CMSE 13.3r7, decomposed BIOS does not have "ME Region.bin" file. There's file "ME Sub Partition.bin" (3.3MB). I assume this is the same, but differently named.
2. I downloaded surface pro 7 firmware and drivers from MS and there's file there "SurfaceME_13.0.2436.2.bin" (4MB). I assume this is the 'clean' ME file. it is NOT the same version as the file in original bios. I was not able to find the same version.
3. When I swap the original file with the MS one and try to load CSME project I get "error 209: Failed to get image metadata sub partition"
4. So I tried decomposing, swapping the file and building bios (without exiting fit.exe), and it built a bios file. I compared original with this one using hex editor and I can see that there's block that is different, so I assume the swap was succesfull.
5. resoldered the bios. Now the machine stays on windows logo for about 3~4 seconds, then shuts down. cant get into the bios.
Attached bios is the original as it came from faulty machine.
