    Bios Chip orientation

    Can any one please help, Can you tell me the orientation of this Bios Chip I think it is black up or is it silver and black up. Plus it does not have a dot like the one on the board I am assuming it is were the cut out on the corner of the silver is.

              Of course, otherwise there is no way to solder it.

                              Q: I have a bios request,i can`t post my backup as i can`t read from the chip.

                              A: If you can`t read from it how do you expect to write to it ?.

                              Q: Why is my bios chip unreadable ?.

                              A: The programmer is faulty or has a worn or broken zif socket.

                              The USB cable is frayed,connector pins worn or some other physical damage.

                              Not enough amperage or voltage to power the programmer properly.

                              Asus Chromebox CN62 - wrong chip put on BIOS reader
                              by BMCappelletti
                              Long story short:
                              - dad converted Asus Chromebox CN62 into Windows compatible, with mrchromebox BIOS, years and years ago
                              - gave the computer to his son a couple years later
                              - son now decided to revert it to Chrome OS, to sell it as original (re-writing BIOS with the backup one created by his dad)
                              - too lazy to remove the board from the case, thought a voltage regulator was the BIOS chip (you know... it has 8 legs)
                              (seems like the story was not that short)

                              He used alligator clips to read the chip. No luck reading it. Removed chip and placed on a SOC-8...

                              Lenovo laptop does not turn on, what does this number mean in a BIOS chip?

                              Hello, first of all, excuse me, I am using the translator, English is not my native language.

                              I have a Lenovo ideapad 330S - 14IKB laptop.



                              The tablet did not recognize me when I connected it, so I checked the device manager and I realized that there were many with the exclamation mark, so one by one I began to update their drivers until the sign disappeared of admiration, I even updated the BIOS, and the laptop rebooted normally and worked, so far so good, but the tablet still did not recognize me, I read on the internet that it could be due to a...

                              by hotcrossedbuns999
                              My pc updated bios through Windows Update and I was greeted with BLACK SCREEN WITH CPU FAN MAX SPEED. I don't think there is even a screen signal, because it triggers my monitor for a couple seconds and then the monitor turns off. I tried the other outputs as well.
                              1. I tried clearing bios, resetting bios, removed the CMOS battery, removed m.2 ssd, wifi, and ram. Still black screen with CPU fan blasting.
                              2. I tried using the Lenovo BIOS CD and BIOS USB, but neither worked. At least I couldn't get anything to work.
                              3. I could only locate two chips that look like bios chips. Could someone verify this

                              Acer e15-e5-576g-5762 bricked. Bios chip won't interface in AsProgrammer.
                              by inck243
                              Thanks for any help. The board version is DAZAARMB6E0 REV: E. The bios chip is winbond 25Q64JVSIQ1736. W25Q64JV is not available in AsProgrammer -- only BV CV FV or FW_1.8c. The chip won't interface with asProgrammer and a CH341A. When I have this chip on the board, the laptop will not post but when I plug it in to power, the blue LED lights up, also the orange when the battery is connected. When I push the power on button, keyboard backlight turns on and the fan starts briefely then turns off. But I can't do anything to program this bios chip so I bought another one.

                              The BIOS...
