got it

when I short pin 1 upper left and pin 5 below, and power the laptop on and release it when I see windows booting it is still locked ... :(

edit:
between the pins I get 2.79v
done with bios reset
on off and so on, result both is not unlocked

ik completly read the story of the other dutch guy: HP Elitebook 8560p BIOS chip replacement problem: ME is in recovery state (5)
and he was also unable to use the pin mod but did come further with the programmer @plutomaniac

just to be sure on my picture HP Laptop Me state recovery, unable to flash firmware Solution = Donation ! (2)
pin 1 is upper left right ? on the realtek it is on the bottom left next to the dot on the chip.

If I also replace the bios do I have a better chance ? or is the programmer then mendatory?

ok sorry to say but I give up.

tried all the short combination with wires (double checked), with al known reset and key presses. In my case it did not unlock de ME.
Thank god the laptop is still ok after 15 times taking the parts on and off. This is not a repair friendly model, never seen that many (diffrent) screws in it.
maybe maybe I will try once a other bios chip to see what will happen. It keeps strange that the ME Recovery message does not appear when the system is power less for a while, bios battery still attached, laptop accu detached.

@plutomaniac Thank you very very much for helping me. Without you I was still stuck with the flashing part. I learned a lot!

Happy new year.

hmmm while seraching for the dell I found a topic with this chip 92HD90B2X5
this time there was a poor picture attached, I have searched on that mainboard to find the actual pin-out. I put this togheter, what do you think ?
if this is right and my chip is some how the same I had 2 times the wrong pins.

thanks

tried also on the other side diffrent pins but unfortunately no discriptor unlock.
next steps will be a other bios chip and or a programmer I have to think about it. But in both cases I think I need help.
worst case I will leave it totaly ..

I ordered a chip and looking for a programmer with clip.

just to be sure a spi image Cleanup can only be done with youre own ME image right ? so it make no sence to ask bios suppier to flash a unlocked me image in it.

small side question about THIS
How do extract that from the bios ? I am now try to get some running on my desktop but is has Intel Small Business Advantage so no remote boot, cant find the asus unlock http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/LGA1155/P8B75-M_LX/E7992_P8B75-M_LX.pdf?_ga=1.145644727.245635587.1461152857 and wanted to verify if some is locked in the ME firmware of this asus bios. On system offcource all is locked.

yes true, but also when some go's wrong I have a spare and I will not have to remove it couple of times, just once is fine. Thats why I will go for both.
thanks for the tip, the one you have bought is that ok ? ( I also did read that :)) I have mailed some suppliers but no one has the total package for sale without weeks of delivery.

ah with "the ME region extracted from the latest ASUS 1601 SPI image" you mean you download the asus ME firmware and did not get that out of the bios file ?
I thought you get the ME firmware out of the bios file of asus, and like to know how you did that, in case of my asus board of the desktop.

are you sure it s the best way ? ebay has some "Hp Probook 650 G1" for less than 300 euro...

you should update the cpu or the vga [ after reading well the manual to make good choices ] with ebay.. i have two hp touchsmat 600 [ one from hp one from ebay ] i changed their cpu for few euros..same with the nvidia 210 that came with the first : i have a hd7700 now...
these days i took two rx480 at amazon at 240 euro each plus a second hand cpu 12 core for the same amount
