Re: Acer Veriton N4640G Bios Dump password

Hey everyone, I have one of these units as well and would like to save it from the trash. I'm new to all this. The BIOS chip is the one labelled MX25L12873F, correct? I tried attaching it to a Raspberry Pi via a clip (without desoldering) and read it via flashrom, but it does not recognize the chip at all.

Of course I could buy a proper programmer and/or desolder the chip, but perhaps that's overkill. Maybe I just messed up the pin contacts.

How did you dump the ROM? Anything special to look out for?
