@Popoof22 - Just purchase CH341A + SOIC8 test clip with cable, then you wont need to desolder/solder anything

Yes that does look like "A BIOS" chip, but it may not be the only BIOS chip, you'd have to dump it with programmer to confirm

Please don't send PM's for help on BIOS edits, I can't help with BIOS in PM's. Please make a thread and I will try to help as soon as I can - thanks!
If you appreciate my efforts and are willing to donate to help improve my hardware, gift cards work for me (Amazn, NuEgg, eBa) - send me a PM
