@hoaca388,
Hello, just a precision regarding the ROM Winbond 25Q256JVEN: can it be replaced by a W25Q256JVEIN or we reaaly need the exact reference. The W25Q256JVEN doesn't seem to be referenced yet in Windbond catalog and distributors..
Thansk for your recommendations 😊

Hello, I've a similar problem with my HP Elitebook 650 G10 recently bought. W10 Pro64 is well installed, up to date, HP drivers updated through HP support site including BIOS update, and I could even make a W11 upgrade...but I cannot access the BIOS as I've not the BIOS password.
I see that rex98, a badcaps veteran 👍 , may be in position to give some recommendations on the way to reinitiate password in a software way.
If this is feasible, what have I to do for reflashing the BIOS?
Here are some info:[INDENT]Product Numbers: 917G0EC#ABF[/INDENT][INDENT]Serial Number: 5CD3439CB8[/INDENT]...
