    Automatic bios update went south (stuck progress bar for hours, battery full and charger connected) and couldn't recover with usb (gets stuck at Dell logo).

    In a pinch, I followed this link to make a programmer using an arduino, desoldered the flash and flashed this file



    Now it booted but I have a considerably slow POST, ~30-40 seconds before the Dell logo. I entered the service tag in the bios.
    I don't know if the bios image supports all configurations of this machine or just the configuration of the uploader's machine.

    Do I need to do another flash with a different file or ME/TXE clean?

    I am looking here but still lost a bit

        I have a Dell XPS 7590 here aswell with a corrupted Bios. Laptop powers on and after a few seconds powers itself down again. I managed to extract the bios and Uefitool seems to recognize the data.
        Service Tag of this laptop is: FJ1YK63 (Laptop model P56F003).

        Corrupted bios attached in the zip file. Would be amazing if someone could help me get a working bios image for this laptop again!

            Thank you for your swift response! Just wrote the new bios image and the laptop is back up and running, time to run further diagnostics to see if there are no me/txe issues :-). Thank you very much for your help!

                My Dell XPS 15 7590 has been bricked due to bios update.
                min attempting to reflash the bios chip with a c341a programmer.

                I realised I don’t have the bin file for this bios.

                When I read the chips on the motherboard. Both come up with all 0’s in the software.
                One chip on the motherboard is a 25Q80DV
                the other is a 25Q80EW

                can anyone please guide me towards finding the correct size file to write over the chips and can anyone give me information as to why they are currently both all 0’s.
                the file I could save from those chips were just over 1MB.

                  Thread merged. The 25Q80 chips are not the bios, they are for firmware. If you havn`t erased those chips leave them alone ! ,if you have then post those backups here so we can check them .Next,look for the correct bios chip,it should have something like 25Q256 or a 256 as the part number. The supplied CH341A software is shit,to put it mildly. Use NeoProgrammer software,you`ll find it on the forum if you search.When you do find the right bios chip make a few backups and compare them to make sure they`re the same, then post one of those backups here, don`t flash any other bios or erase the chip, its imperative you make a good backup.
                  Also,you must post the laptop service tag -> https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...before-posting

                    Hello!
                    Thank you for the response.
                    This is the only chip I can find with something related to 256 written on it. But the other letters I can't find when looking on Neoprogrammer or Asprogrammer. (Neo also pops up saying ic not responding). Would this be the bios chip?

                      Yes thats it GD25B256DYIG .Do you have a WSON8 pogo adapter or only a SOP8 clip or are you desoldering the chip. If you only have a sop8 clip you won`t be able to attach it,it will damage the chip

                        sadly I don’t have a WSON8 pogo adapter and definitely don’t trust myself desoldering. Looks like im
                        going shopping haha.

                                        Hello,

                                        My Dell XPS 15 7590 has a corrupted BIOS following a BIOS update.
                                        Service Tag: 9TM38Y2
                                        Model: XPS 15 7590
                                        Here is the original corrupted BIOS (extracted twice and compared with "certutil -hashfile" to be sure they are the same)
                                        AsProgrammer couldn't recognize the chip (25B256DYIG) so I input the size from the other bios files shared here manually (33554432), hope this will do.

                                        Would be amazing if someone could help me get a working bios

                                        Thank you so much!

                                            [REQUEST] Dell G3 3579 BIOS Password & AMI Protected Range/BIOS Guard Unlock
                                            by zenius
                                            Hello, I have an old Dell G3 3579 (ST: 2WQ7LP2-8FC8) with a newer 8FC8 BIOS password. I have successfully attached to the flash chip (W25Q128JVSQ) on the motherboard with a CH341A programmer and made several modifications using Intel FIT (e.g., allow software SPI write) without bricking. I was also able to boot to a modified GRUB shell where I attempted to edit many BIOS security related options like BIOS Guard/Lock, Flash Signature Override, ME FW Image Re-Flash, etc.

                                            Unfortunately, some of these modifications like to Intel BIOS Guard failed because it is fused into the PCH. Also,...

                                            by mikeybass
                                            Hi, I hope some one has some advice for me. I searched the forums but didn't see anything relevant. I acquired two identical Dell 9010 Mid Tower computers from a business office upgrade (they were going to throw them out). Both of them have the same motherboard (00F82W). One of them works flawlessly. The other one had a corrupted BIOS. I tried flashing numerous main BIOS and EC files from the internet, but none of them worked. I decided to copy the main BIOS and EC from the working 9010 computer and successfully flashed the corrupted BIOS. This got the computer able to boot again and run norm...

                                            Help with BIOS update on Dell G15 5515 after chip replacement
                                            by capoplays
                                            Hey everyone,

                                            I recently bought a Dell G15 5515 with an AMD Ryzen 7 5800H and 3060 RTX. The BIOS chip on it was dead, and my hardware guy replaced the chip. After that, everything was working fine.

                                            The BIOS is currently at version 1.22.1, and I wanted to update it. I downloaded the latest BIOS version from Dell Support using my ST: FQZMYJ3, but when I tried to run it, it says "unsupported system." I asked my tech guy what he did, and he said he took the chip from another board and flashed it onto mine.

                                            When I check the BIOS using the F12 menu Flash...

                                            Hi,

                                            Could someone help trying to unlock this BIOS, seems that Dell have changed the layout of new Dell Pro 8FC8 bioses from checking HXD - 4000 bits do not need changing, only 2000. However after FF the section starting from '01000' upto 2000 bits and then soldering the chip back it seems that the microchip on the motherboard is recovering the bios back to original settings after first boot. Has anyone found a way to crack this extra layer of security Dell have implemented? Seems both HP and Dell have upped bios security to match Lenovo by implementing extra measures on a separate...
