    Hi, I know this is off topic. I'm one of the victims of HP's latest faulty BIOS update, which left my laptop dead.

    The laptop is no longer responding; it only runs at full speed with the fans on, there's no screen, and only the backlight is on and there are Shift codes indicating BIOS problems.

    After reading the forum, I'm not sure which boot controller I should reprogram and which programmer to use to restore it. Do you have any ideas? Thanks.​ (I'm relatively new sorry)

I had this same issue with another laptop model, and someone was able to use my main BIOS dump and edit it so it goes into manufacturer mode, so I can re-enter the DMI information and it worked! So if hoaca388 could do it again, or anyone else, I would very appreciate it

    You must post the laptop/PC serial number, SNID or service tag with every bios request - https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...before-posting

    Sorry for not writing until now! The bios is open, but unfortunately none of the USB ports work. Thanks for the help, I'll take the machine apart.

    When I land in this topic, I see the process that is discuss here is much more complicated than that. So I am wondering:
    1) if the bios lock mention in the eBay post is different than the BIOS lock in this thread
    or 2) It's the same bios lock, but remove the CMOS battery won't reset the BIOS lock like some google results suggest.

    Can anyone confirm? Thanks,
    1) It is no different than the bios in this chain.
    2) Removing the cmos battery does not reset the computer bios.

    The right BIOS Programmer - The right software (HP Elitebook 820 G1, 840 G2) no soldering, EC, DMI, ME
    by STKR123
    Greetings badcaps community,

    I havent done this for a long time and want to start it all again, after some evil and annyoing illness.
    So I apologize in advance, if some phrases might sound a bit like gibberish or illogical to you.

    Im trying my best to fully describe what I plan to achieve and hope I was choosing the right sub-forum for my new adventure.

    I have a Elitebook 820 G1 and a Elitebook 840 G2 here.

    These ask for a password when entering the BIOS, but boot just fine from the internal SSD.

    I learned that desoldering...

    🛠️ MSI GP75 Leopard MS-17E71 – No Display, Deep BIOS/EC Troubleshooting
    by macabook
    Hello everyone,

    I’m currently working on a dead MSI GP75 Leopard (MS-17E71) motherboard (i7 CPU, NVIDIA GPU) with a no display/no backlight issue initially. After extensive investigation, I’m at a critical stage involving EC firmware, BIOS/ME region interaction, and possible deep corruption. I'm seeking advanced insight from anyone with experience in EC/BIOS sync issues or PCH-level behavior. Here’s a full breakdown:
    🧩 Initial Issue
    • Board powers on (fans spin, keyboard lights up and can be adjusted, caps lock led lights), but no display or backlight
    • External display (HDMI) shows
