    Hi all,

    Sorry to butt into your discussion, but I am currently trying to restore the bios of an Elitebook 840 G8 that is locked by a password. I would like to know if I have the wrong chip and if it is 1 or 2.

    Thank you very much for your future help!

    Chip I found: winbond 25q256jven Is this the right chip?

    Is there another one ?
    As you can see in the post #237, the EC Chip named U366, so looking for it and upload it's content here. If we still need the other Chip will inform you.

      Thank you,

      I don't understand why I have to look at post #237?

      So the chip I found is not the right one?

      Thank you

        The man who attach his EC file in Post #237 named the EC Chip U366, so I tell you to see if your Chip is labeled as U366 on the board or not. Otherwise if you can upload the 2 Chips do it. *Chips could be in SOIC/WSON Package*

          ok is this one ?

          So you have to unsolder it. I thought I was going to use a sop8 connector.

            Yes, you should desolder it and use a WSON adapter, or you can use WSON clip (I don't prefer that).

              Ok so I desoldered, I managed to read something where I see the model of the computer and the brand does that mean that the dump worked?

              but I was wrong, it's an 845 g8

                Upload the file and we will see if it's good or not.

                    Here's your Unlocked Bios, in the first boot go to Bios Menu and disable security options (Default).
                    If the Password still present, upload the other Chip (Main).

                    Your device is (HP EliteBook 845 G8) according to your Serial Number (5CG1511WMY).

                            tell us already what you can do because the only solution is to give a dump of the bios

                              Since the flash I have a problem with the battery fault code and the battery in windows is either at 100% or 0%. Before it worked fine.

                              Can this be due to the flash?

                                Try new OS, Bios update or another battery to know where's the problem.
