    Looking for HP Pavilion G7-1174CA bios

    Tried a few different versions found on this site and elsewhere with little luck so far. Don't have original bios bin at all.

    in that case we dont know the BID but now the solution is i have extracted 4 new bios from HP SUPPORT SITE so you may try 1 by 1 and hope 1 of this will fix your bios issue

      Thanks , will do,
      Just wanted to add a few details :
      This is a 17” laptop with intel i5 and ATI Radeon chip
      Board model is DA0R13MB6E0 REV. E
      R13

      Do I need to worry about cleaning the ME region in those files ?

        Also, this archive only has the Main bios.bin files but not EC ones for the second chip. I believe I need to re-program both each time.

          No need to do anything it is a factory made bios just flash it
          after flashing maybe you required to fill dmi info when its turn on and display come

            Question: curious as to how you extracted those bin files from the hp factory package?
            I might have to go to an earlier bios version.
            Thanks ahead.

                F32 maybe f33 as well
                I’m more interested in the process of extracting it

                  HP Pavilion Gaming Laptop 15-ec2523nd - Dimm2 slot disabled after corrupt bios repair? Advice requested.
                  by Bloodhoundje
                  Hi everyone,

                  I have been doing hardware repair as a hobby for some years now and recently decided to learn about repairing laptops as a fun challenge.

                  I managed to get my hands on a "HP Pavilion Gaming 15-ec2523nd" notebook that only shows a white power LED and doesnt respond to anything.

                  After initial testing I concluded the bios seems to be corrupted since all voltages are normal and there are no shorts. HP has a feature for a bios restore from USB with winkey+B for this model. This did not work.

                  I have desoldered the bios chip (GigaDevice...

                  ASUS TP500LA BIOS request/repair/merge?
                  by jbonavita
                  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...

                  [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,...

                  Lenovo Thinkbook 15 G2 ITL i5 (serial number: MP2BFZEF) bios request
                  by Wahaz
                  Hello,

                  I have a Lenovo Thinkbook 15 G2 ITL i5 Laptop (serial number: MP2BFZEF) that when I turn it on, the led on the power button lights up for 5 seconds, then goes out. There's no display and nothing happens.
                  So I thought it was a Bios problem.
                  I found 3 bios chips on the board, which I read with a bios programmer: two XMC model bios chips and a Winbond model bios chip. Each XMC model bios chip has two partitions named XM25QH128A [3.3V] and XT25F128A [3.3V]. And the Winbond model bios chip has three partitions named W25Q80BL 3.3V, W25Q80xV 3.3V and W25Q80DV 3.3V....
