use the program from post # 1 on the 16MB bios, the other bios remains the same ..
Due to a lack of donations, server free space at a critical level, and possible closure of Bios Requests all donations are welcome, click:

Hi Peste, I flashed the "unlocked" BIOS file for the 16MB chip following the instruction on page #1, but I am getting the 5 flashes of the Cap and Scroll keys. I did this on a new BIOS chip as well as the original BIOS chip. Fortunately, I was able to boot up normally after flashing the original locked file back to the original BIOS chip. Please let me know if you have any suggestion. Much appreciated. (Attached is the unlocked file using the HP unlocked tool)
Hi, do you know if you need to unlock both BIOS on a 1040 G2? I am not getting any display and flashing Cap and Scroll keys when I only unlocked the 25q128fvsq BIOS chip. Thank you for all your time and support.

HPUnlocker doesn't work with 1040 G2 unfortunately, so there is no point to keep trying, not going to happen.

Thank you for this information about HPUnlocker. Is there another solution to unlock the password Thanks
You have already asked Peste for help, just be patient and wait for him to rebuiild your bios dump, than use HP dmi tool to write back the serials etc. and that's all.

Hi Mazpower3,
I have just tried your latest patch but I still get the blank screen display, (5) flashing scroll & cap lock, also high fan speed. Please let me know if I need to make additional tweak to make this work. I also make a mistake previously as this is a 1040 G1 and not G2 according to the system info. Thank you again for all your time and support. You have a wonderful day

Thank you for keep trying.
With the latest patch, I get a different result, the Power and Cap LEDs are lit, but the screen is blank, and fan does not turn on. I also did a file comparison after write/read of the new file on the BIOS chip.
I don't use clip on the EZP2019 program, only soldering.
I am pretty sure it's not a soldering issue or programing issue since the laptop works fine when I restored the original code back onto the BIOS chip. Again, really appreciate for all your time in getting this to work.
