Chip is fine. Readings from both 3.3V file and 1.8V file are the same.
Compared the files. Completely identical. I can see the Model and Serial number in the BIOS file
This laptop was released last year (2024). Therefore, if anyone else happens to have other bios dump, please share.
FYI - i used 1.8V adapter with my CH341A and used W25Q512JV [3.3V] to read the chip.
If there was 1.8V W25Q setting with 512Mb under detect in CH341a then we wouldn't need the 1.8V adapter.
Anyway, happy repairs everyone...

Does this mean the bios chip is damaged?
just to be sure, let me read it again with 1.8V adapter attached and compare both files.
Fingers crossed this 512Mb chip is well....Leave a comment:

BIOS for Microsoft Surface Laptop 7 - Model 2036
Hi ya folks,
Attached is the BIOS from a Microsoft Surface Laptop 7 - Model 2036
As of right now i am unable to confirm whether this BIOS dump works or not.
But i will update soon. Hopefully in a day or two.
Given that no one else uploaded any BIOS backup for this laptop, I thought i might as well start a new thread and upload what i have.

Remember, If you tried to read this chip with CH341A, this device will not identify this chip for you.

Hi ya folks,
I have a NEC laptop with a burning chip which is supplying power to CPU.
Thankfully CPU is not burned.
I just gotta replace this chip.
Unfortunately i don't know the name of the chip.
Markings are
1st line W072
2nd line 5335
I know the maker is GMT Global Mixed-Mode Technology.
But i cant find out the chip name.
Any help is appreciated.

Hi folks,
My Surface Pro 9 keeps booting into BIOS.
I tried with different hard disk and no change.
I formatted the hard disk and tried to freshly install the Win 11 but, the surface wont boot into USB drive. I even tried to boot from Win-To-Go USB drive. No use.
So i did what everyone would expect me to; download a BIOS from BadCaps and load into it. That didn't work either.
I properly unsoldered the BIOS chip and soldered it to the CH341A. Re-verified it multiple times.
I went to the Microsoft website to download the original firmware...Last edited by Loki_Fido; 08-29-2025, 03:40 AM.Leave a comment:

You didnt just send me a working BIOS, but you actually copied my real Serial Number and Product ID to new BIOS.
Nice.... That was above and beyond.
