...... I've bough a CH341A recently and try AsProgrammer, CH341A programmer, NeoProgrammer but the only thing i get is the full of FF in any attempt of reading the chip.

Most of the time bad seating of the clamp, search the forum for the chip type and recommendations, seems that it's not that hard to read.

I've extracted body of the downloaded bios capsule from Asus website and flashed it using CH341A, but no luck. Can anyone help me to get biosreg or something that help me to recover my laptop from death. Many thanks......

To put it mildly it's not a good idea to expect to be able to flash the chip properly if you can't read it- the probability that everything is overwritten with FF / deleted by the flashing process is rather low since the update does contain a "hidden" ME region, but no FD. In addition it's an even less good idea to flash something that you don't understand the structure of into a chip- especially if you don't have a backup of the former content.

The ASUS firmware is a bios region with an UEFI volume attached containing the flash program and additional stuff, not a complete Intel firmware image. Even if you were able to flash it correctly it'd been a 100% sure brick!



That's the most simple simple structure of an Intel firmware (non- TXE 3-4):



Pray that you didn't write to the chip- if the EC firmware got updated from the area it's normally localized in bios region that can't be fixed by your programmer. If that didn't happen but you did overwrite parts of the firmware outside bios region you'll need a firmware dump of another system. In addition machine specific data like serial, UUID, MAC, windows license may be gone.

Read the chip again until you get reproducable results- meaning that you read the chip 3 times, save the results to 3 different files and these 3 files are a 100% identical! Attach the result or post a link to it.
