    [Help] with a ASUS X55A-119SX Bios Flash (CH341A programmer)

    Hi,
    I hope everything is alright with you guys.

    First of all, thank you very much for the forum, they are fantastic, very informative.
    I have read a few treread but I have a little problem when trying to program my BIOS.
    Starting at the beginning, I have an Asus X55A-119X that needed to update the bios (for V.417), I started to do it, but my little son disconnected the laptop from the power when WinFlash was in the "erase" phase. In other words, the laptop has become a paperweight.
    I don't have much experience in electronics, I study here and there. So I decided that since everything was already lost, to acquire the CH341A, with an alligator claw.
    Here the problems begin, I have already downloaded all the software versions available on the web, I try all step-by-step, but all of them always give some error.

    CHIP is a Winbond 25Q64FVSIG 1227, MB is an X55A Main Board Rev. 2.1.
    When using the latest version CH341A_V1.1.1.33 it is the one that gives hope, as it is more recent, but when reading the eprom it only detects in the field memory size: 512 bytes and the size of page 4byte which makes it impossible to place the bios made available by Asus (sent in attachment to take a look).

    I would love to recover this laptop, and I feel that I am doing something wrong. Along I send other errors of the other versions:

    CH341A_V1.18: When I click detect half of the epron information appears (send photo)
    CH341A_V1.29: When I click detect, more information appears, but when loading the file and clicking on automatic it gives the message (sending photo)
    CH341A_V1.30: When I click detect it gives an error (send photo)
    CH341a_V1.34: When I click detect, more information appears, but when clicking check it gives an error (sending photo)
    CH341A_V1.41: Neither locates the Chip (send photo)

    I do as other thread step-by-step, connect to a USB3 port, I tried it on USB2 too. I'm afraid I'm doing something wrong, because I always have a hard time putting the claw on.
    Can you give a hand?
    I already thank you very much. And reinforcement forum have been fantastic.
    Last question, the BIOS file can be the manufacture? On Asus site I download the BIOS file, the 417, and the first release.

    Thanks very much & sorry about my bad English (I'm from Portugal)

    Use NeoProgrammer software instead,and desolder the chip if you can, then post your bios backup here .
