Thank you so much for your reply!
I think the BIOS chip is soldered in and I don’t have the proper equipment do that kind of work. I’ll see what I can do, and if I can get it done, I’ll post the contents of the BIOS here. Thanks again for your help.

Hello again.
I see SPI USB programmers on Amazon for $8.49. Does something like this work, or is it more specialized than that? Please let me know.

Thanks again for your replies.

Hello again…

Thank you for your reply.

I’ve included all the information that was on the about screen. Is there something that I’m missing. You mentioned posting the original bios of the laptop. Do you know where I would find that information? Please let me know.

Thanks again,
