Well, after I found the right BIOS & PVROM chip - hint, its not the SOP8, its the 2 WSON8 chips under the HDD sled / next to the PCI wifi slot - I was able to desolder, dump, and fix! My first time using a heat gun, and on as small of a chip to boot.
Thanks for this - was super easy to do and instantly worked. My PVROM had data up to 37AA0, I Cleared it for good measure and it worked just fine. There's more data @ 38000 that starts with NvramActiveRegn, I DID NOT clear this and it still let me into BIOS with no PW just fine.
I did *JUST* the PVROM chip...

Great forum - stumbled upon this trying to remove BIOS password from a few EliteDesk 805 G6's I've got. Was able to get a dump of the bios, I THINK. Chip says - MX25L3255E. asprogrammer / neoprogrammer doesn't have that one listed. Was able to pull presumably the BIOS using MX25L3275E - the hex shows a fair bit of non-gibberish strings so I think its good. However the RCUnlocker shows Missing Unlockable content when I drop the BIN in. Any help appreciated!
