Getac V110 Bios Needed.

[r4v3_83]

Hi to all,

I'm newbie and I found this forum because I was trying to update my Getac V110G1 BIOS. Coming from Version R1.00.070520 I would like to upgrade to the latest one (3.0.8) but at the moment it's not possible because, from what I've understood, I need to do intermediate steps. Due to the fact that on the Getac support site is present only the latest BIOS version I'm asking if anyone can help me to solve this problem. My question is: it's possible to jump to the latest version forcing the flashing? If yes, how and it's dangerous? If not I ask to someone if has a couple of official BIOS version that can helping in fixing the problem.

Thanks a lot!

Can't restore previous version of Bios, gives error. Bios with password. Maybe someone will tell me how to do it correctly.

Bios has not been read yet. The problem is that after updating Bios to the latest version via Getac Utility, a problem with the laptop's operation appeared. I want to roll back to the previous version of Bios.

Is there any other way to reset the password?

No

you need an SPI programmer...here is a video for example..https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DWWi...nnel=ThisIsHow

using Universal BIOS BackupToolKit 2.0, it turns out

Rog tracking that programmer. Can you confirm that this kit will work? Also is there a standard chip for the G5s that I should have on hand in case the installed chip can't be revived? (i haven't disassembled down to the MB yet)

And I can provide all that if it helps but I know how to get the files from the Getac site using the SN but guess my question is, is it as easy as getting a new chip and USB programmer to install the files? Then just plug the new chip in on the board? Thanks for helping the noob.

post S/N, full name and model, motherboard model, ,etc.

I realize this is likely not the right thread but the discussion here seems to amongst many who are familiar with V110s. I have a G5 that just died and won’t load to BIOS. Curious if anyone could point me in the right direction for replacing the socketed chip?

Discard the first byte and the last byte of the variable, you will end up with 32-hex bytes. Before you try to break the sha256 password hash yourself try to search for it online, I do use cmd5.org, if it's an easy password it's free, for more complicated passwords you will have to pay 1 credit but it will tell you if they have it or not, if they don' t have it they tell you to come back in 5 days (so far they have never contacted me letting me know they found a match after a few days).

Thank you, that worked perfectly!

I am trying to make sure I have the right hash for my bios password, so I'm wondering if I should be generating the hash from the whole entry or if I need to exclude the first hex character and the 8-bit checksum at the end. Any insight you could provide would be greatly appreciated! I don't want to waste my time trying to break the wrong hash if that makes sense.

Re: Getac V110 Bios Needed.

@liver
It has a similar structure, the first hex character (20h=32) tells the password length or in this case the hash length (most likely SHA156), then the password or password hash follows that and at the end there's a 8-bit checksum of the block.
This thread is for Getac V110, what's your Getac model number? If you also have a V110, then it must be a newer BIOS version than the ones already posted in this thread.
