    Asus X412F password locked (BIOS)

    i have an ASUS X412F laptop with a password request when starting the laptop.
    i dumped the BIOS (i have a TL866II PLUS) but the eeprom is an 25B127DSIG that is not (i think) supported by this programmer... (it suggest GD25Q127C or GD25Q128B)


    not sure that the dump is a right one and i can't try to reflash another clean image beause the recognized eeprom is not the right one.

    any suggestion?

    this is the dump: (reading it using the GD25Q127C preset)

      the posted bios is longer ... remove the bios chip from the motherboard before writing or reading ... if you use the clip you may have errors..use for writing GD25Q127C ... try the bios ...

          the eeprom was removed i also noticed the wrong length... this is maybe because is not correctly recognized by the programmer?

                                  Asus Tuf A15 FA507RE Bios Password Locked
                                  by Dapump91
                                  Hello,

                                  I have a 2022 Asus Tuf A15 that I haven’t used in almost a year, but I went to boot it up to install some new games and all I get is the black “enter password” screen. I don’t remember ever setting a password, and none of my regular passwords work. I can’t log into Windows at all. I called Asus and their only option is to send it in and pay $80 before they’ll even tell me how much it’ll cost to reset/erase the password. I would love not to have to do that, do I have any other options? Thank you in advance.

                                  (FA507RE-A15.R73050T

                                  ASUS TUF GAMING Z790-PLUS WIFI - BIOS Help
                                  by grimacelord
                                  Hello,

                                  I have spent the last hour on this and I guess this is just over my head, so here I am.

                                  I have an ASUS TUF GAMING Z790-PLUS WIFI motherboard here that needs to have the BIOS updated in order to accept the latest CPUs.

                                  The BIOS chips seem to come as a set of two: GD25B64ESIG and GD25B128ESIG. My guess is one of them is a fail-safe for the main BIOS? I really don't know. Or one of them is ME and other is BIOS? I don't know.

                                  Anyway, I took dumps of both chips and then downloaded the latest update for this motherboard from ASUS's website...

                                  [REQUEST] Dell G3 3579 BIOS Password & AMI Protected Range/BIOS Guard Unlock
                                  by zenius
                                  Hello, I have an old Dell G3 3579 (ST: 2WQ7LP2-8FC8) with a newer 8FC8 BIOS password. I have successfully attached to the flash chip (W25Q128JVSQ) on the motherboard with a CH341A programmer and made several modifications using Intel FIT (e.g., allow software SPI write) without bricking. I was also able to boot to a modified GRUB shell where I attempted to edit many BIOS security related options like BIOS Guard/Lock, Flash Signature Override, ME FW Image Re-Flash, etc.

                                  Unfortunately, some of these modifications like to Intel BIOS Guard failed because it is fused into the PCH. Also,...

                                  ASUS TP500LA BIOS request/repair/merge?

                                  Hi, my laptop wont boot at all
                                  With original bios no POST, only LED lights
                                  With alternative BIOS from model TP500LN (flashed via programmer) the notebook works again
                                  Some issues
                                  A- with bios from 500LN, it won't update from bios of model 500LA (from 500LN v203 to 500LA v300)
                                  B- If updated from 500LN version 203 to 300, the battery stops being recognized

                                  Things I tried

                                  1- Update / clear ME: Took the non working bios, made a backup, and did this: https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...theory/trouble...
