Hi I'm writing a quick update, I tried soldering the chip again but it doesn't help.
I verified the contacts with my multimeter and I get the correct voltage on all the pins.
Is it possible that another chip needs programming ?

I have indeed de-soldered the chip to program it.
I already thought of this as the cause of the problem (when I tried to repair the BIOS myself before posting), but I don't think this causes the issue.
I tried powering up the PC without the chip at all and nothing happens.
I'll verify with my multi-meter anyway, thank youLeave a comment:

Thanks for the file, I have it but it is still not working.
When powered on the keyboard light on and stays lit. If I press the power button, the LED is orange until I let the button go.Leave a comment:

Hi,
I have a Dell XPS 7390 2 in 1 with boot problem. The laptop stopped working after an unsuccessful BIOS update.
Laptop doesn't boot, led flashes meaning corrupted BIOS/Intel ME.

Express service code : "2584369082"
Please find attached dump of GD25B256D@WSON8 (UH8).

Have you figured out which chip contains the BIOS ?
I'm having the same problem right now.Leave a comment:
