Thank you for the response, however, after flashing the 1 unlocked.bin to the corresponding laptop, it just showed "The BIOS has recovered it's identity data from the embedded controller due to data mismatch." and it is still locked....

1 - 5CG8441GP3

Hello, I recently got two locked HP EliteBook 840 G5, I've seen that this tool supports them - however I am not able to get it working.
When I dragged the locked dump onto the exe, I get a supposedly unlocked file, but when I flash it, the BIOS is still locked.
I am flashing/reading from the 32MB chip.
Here are my locked dumps....

Hello, I am attaching two BIOS dumps from two HP EliteBook 840 G5 laptops - I was unable to reset the BIOS password using these tools:

Please one more thing, the number 2 has started showing the "There is a problem with the HP Endpoint Security Controller on the unti.", I am attaching a photo as well.
I am also attaching current BIOS dump. I do not know if this is fixable, since I am missing the original XU68/PRVROM backup from this device.
Also if there is a way I could support your work, please let me know.
Thank you very much!...

Hello, it now works! I had to erase the PRVROM, or the XU68 chip on the mother board, the system then recovered it! Now everything works!
Thank you very much for everything!

Thank you so, so much! Number 1 and 3 do work completely fine now!
Number 2 flashes 6 times red and 3 times white. I don't know if that's fixable. It is possible that the backup file for 2 was somehow corrupted or something, since it was the first one that I grabbed the backup from, and was the one I tested a MPM unlocked BIOS that was present on this website, but was deleted because it did not work.

So an update, I managed to unlock the BIOS-4-5 using an HP unlock python script.
This is the one if someone wants to do the same: [url]https://gist.github.com/schorschii/752b3a06f7bc3b33ce7b65ff22c27337[/url]
You also only need to read, unlock and flash the larger 16pin XU21 chip.
However, I am still unable to boot the PCs with the bricked BIOSes - those are 1, 2 and 3. If someone would be able to help somehow rebuild the BIOS or something.
I am not familiar with fixing possibly corrupter BIOSes.https://So an update, I managed to u... unlock python

Sorry, I did post them but through a Google Drive link in the post. Here they are in two zip files, numbered.
I did not realise the upload size limit is per file....

HP EliteDesk 800 G4 35W DM Desktop Mini PC - not posting after BIOS reset attempt
Hello, sorry for the long post, I just wanted to include any details that might help.
A bit of backstory - I currently have 5 of these MiniPCs - I got them for very cheap from Ebay. All of these PCs are BIOS administrator password locked without their drives.
I also got a G3 large tower, that I could reset the password of fine just using a header and a button on the motherboard.
So I thought that I could do the same with the G4 MiniPCs, oh how wrong I was.
First of all, I stumbled upon a tutorial, that apparently showed a BIOS password reset procedure - where I basically...
