CQ62-228DX DAOAX2MB6E1 BIOS Chip location

[fritz614]

I have a CQ62-228DX laptop with a DAOAX2MB6E1 REV E motherboard.

I am 1. trying to locate chip on motherboard and 2. am I even able to reflash this chip.

I searched thru these forums and others on the google and can not seem to find a solid answer.

My laptop turns on, blank screen and Caps Lock and wifi lights come on. Caps light blinks.

If I am able to flash, what version do I flash with?

I think the bios chip is between the RAM memory slot and the WIFI card slot ... post clear pictures with the motherboard ... these motherboards have problems with the video chip ... I would check this first ...

I have also tried booting with an external monitor and nothing appears there either, FYI

So, in theory, I should be able to flash it. Would I be able to use the CH341a flasher and if so, do you happen to know which bios file would go to that one?
