    Asus zenbook duo UX481F

    Hi,

    I bought a zenbook that has a bios password, cant go into recovery. so i have used a programmer to get the bios from the chip. winbond 25Q128JVPQ. I thought i could flash a new bios image onto it but it seems like the file is too big and needs to be edited. i have opened both bios files in UEFItool but could not work out how to do it. after spending hours searching i need help!

    i have attached the original and newest bios from asus for this laptop.

    cheers.

                  [TUTORIAL] fix asus bios with bios from asus web support (by razor_amd)

                  With ASUS, not everything is quite so simple. I will show you my way. It may be longer or harder but it is the right way to do it in my humble opinion.

                  For example, you can have 3 similar ASUS motherboards, all being the same model, all of which will have different BIOS versions.

                  I will give you an example and my version of preparing BIOS from ASUS website and in the process I am always cleaning Intel ME while doing it so you have fully cleaned BIOS, no DMI data, no password, nothing.

                  This is the picture of 3 similar ASUS motherboards, all of them being X555LD...

                  ASUS TUF GAMING Z790-PLUS WIFI - BIOS Help
                  by grimacelord
                  Hello,

                  I have spent the last hour on this and I guess this is just over my head, so here I am.

                  I have an ASUS TUF GAMING Z790-PLUS WIFI motherboard here that needs to have the BIOS updated in order to accept the latest CPUs.

                  The BIOS chips seem to come as a set of two: GD25B64ESIG and GD25B128ESIG. My guess is one of them is a fail-safe for the main BIOS? I really don't know. Or one of them is ME and other is BIOS? I don't know.

                  Anyway, I took dumps of both chips and then downloaded the latest update for this motherboard from ASUS's website...

                  Asus ROG Ally X -RC72LA - changed hidden bios settings with 'Smokeless-UMAF', won't get past boot logo
                  by throwaway327
                  ASUS ROG Ally X - (Handheld Gaming PC)
                  Model No: RC72LA
                  Serial No: SBNVKD001014459

                  Hi all, I've spent the past week digging through the forums and guides to try correct my foolish mistake of changing hidden settings while tinkering around, and to be honest my heads overloaded so I'm hoping you'll be able to help.

                  I used a tool called 'Smokeless-UMAF' to access usually hidden settings in the bios. I tweaked one or two 'safe' things but made the mistake of tweaking a lot of settings under 'USB/Thunderbolt Configurations' when I didn't know what they did. For...

                  Asus zenbook duo UX481F bios pls ?
                  by corrize
                  Hello, when a laptop try to start with « all system power good » signal ok, and shut down, that could be a bios issue pls ?
                  And there is a way to see in the bios file if the program is corrupted ?

                  If it is relevant, could you provide the bios file for the Asus Zenbook DUO UX481F i7-10510U - 16Go with Nvidia MX250 2Go
                  Motherboard : UX481FL Rev 2.0
                  If I have to desolder the chip, I will post the bios file here.

                  I add : someone requested bios file here, and don't know if I can use this file ?

                  ASUS TP500LA BIOS request/repair/merge?
                  by jbonavita
                  Hi, my laptop wont boot at all
                  With original bios no POST, only LED lights
                  With alternative BIOS from model TP500LN (flashed via programmer) the notebook works again
                  Some issues
                  A- with bios from 500LN, it won't update from bios of model 500LA (from 500LN v203 to 500LA v300)
                  B- If updated from 500LN version 203 to 300, the battery stops being recognized

                  Things I tried

                  1- Update / clear ME: Took the non working bios, made a backup, and did this: https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...theory/trouble...
