For Menue edit more better to use FPT, as i dont want to disassamble the notebook again.. lot of hassle....
but for now i need e rest.... maybe back in 6 hrs....

@chris_tronic - OK, I'd prefer you use FPT too Save wear and tear on your SOIC8 test clip, the cheap clips only last so long before they wear out and can't grab BIOS anymore.
No rush at all, we'll get to it! Can you please, if you're still here, before you go, send me one image of the root of Advanced BIOS page, so I can see all submenus visible to you there now. You may need to scroll up/down, please put images in a zip, thanks

here are the pics.. not have scroll down option..

I meant you may need to scroll up/down and take two images, to show me top to bottom at root of advance, but I see lots missing so yeah scrolling not needed there
Thanks

Since I need to repair a Flex Cable locking Clip that broke away ( https://www.mouser.de/datasheet/2/276/1/...ORS-1600700.pdf)
I intend to flash the BIOS directly with the programmer again. So I dont need to hassle around with protected BIOS Regions at all.
Surely I need to take out the Board again and prepair everything for flashing again.. but it seems to me the best solution. I just ordered a new Flex Cable Board and try to repair my onboard broken one with it. Its really freaking me, as there are no spare parts in Germany and they must be send around the world for just a little clip of plastic....
These plastic clips are really sensitive and must be carefully handled unless you want to sit oround with a mainbord that is not possible to connect to flex cables anymore.. like me now...
I just taped the cable and hope not come loose..
So I think in about 4 weeks I will receive this tiny clip of plastic and than repair my board together with flashing.
Please let me know what files you need to unlock my BIOS Advanced Settings..

Greetings

Chris

By the way, is it possible to enable GSYNC for my ASUS G751 JY ?
Maybe by flashing a new Video BIOS?
My board is REV 2.0 and I know the GSYNC Models have REV2.5... but I also read about a leaked driver that enabled GSYNC on the older ASUS G751 without GSYNC.. So it must be a softwore issue i guess.. Since those GSYNC Modules are not build into the Notebook but using maybe modified EDP Standards..

@chris_tronic - Hopefully your tape will hold

GSYNC - I'm not sure, I assume for laptop it's done on GFX chip, WIKI says by shader instead of other chip like on desktop boards/monitors etc
So yes, maybe some software, or it could be in vBIOS

Here, please test, show me Advanced root page now, and let me know if you can see Chipset menu or not. May need follow up edit, so leave system apart if possible

* Edit - Sorry, I forgot, and just realized!! I will have to do major menu edit to make "Performance Tuning" visible to you. I will have to swap for some other submenu you don't use/care about, please pick one that you don't need...
Actually, I think there is a few I left hidden because useless or no real setting inside, so I can use one of those. So, once you show me new image of ADV and Chipset if present, I will get to work on this submenu replacement

So i have the Asus G751JY (4710HQ, 980M) laptop. My bios did brick after flashing 213 bios update. I already have the ch341a programmer and i did backup the original bios. My bios is: Winbond 25x40cln1g (4MB)
I wanted to flash a new bios from Asus site, but the size of those are 6MB and my bios is only 4MB. Is it somehow possible to shrink the size of bios? Somehow the backup bios is 512kb i think it's corrupted and it looks weird when looking with hex editor.

@Chuck6 - BIOS for this board is 8MB chip, so your dumped 4Mbit chip contents above cannot be the BIOS, that is only 512KB
Please locate other chip, W25X40CL is 4Mbit = 512kb chip (as you can see by the file size) << The contents of your dump say Prema-mod, were you trying to flash in some non-official (not Asus) BIOS/EC FW package?
If yes ^^, you may have problems using other BIOS with that EC FW in there, you'll have to send me entire Prema BIOS/EC FW package so I can create you proper full BIOS. It may be OK to use the Asus official one with that in EC FW chip, I am not sure, we'll have to see.

BIOS chip will be 8MB, so will have "64" in the ID for 64Mbit/8MB - Once you locate, let me know the BIOS ID, so I can tell you what software/version to use, not all software can read or write to all chips properly

I have already helped many users recover this model, so I'm moving your post to that main thread

4mb is the vbios?
I had problems reading the main bios chip (8mb) until I connected the big battery connector to the motherboard and then readings were legit.

@xkwas - I don't know what is vBIOS here, I don't think anyone has dumped any vBIOS and sent to me, so I can't say for sure. What I mentioned above was not 4MB (32Mbit) though, it was 4Mbit (512KB) chip he dumped that I was replying about.
I doubt any 4MB chip is vBIOS, that is too big for vBIOS chip generally.

Thanks for heads up on the main battery needing to be connected for programmer

@Lost_N_BIOS Oops my bad that was actually vbios . My bios id is: Winbond 25Q64FVSIQ (1424) and when trying to read from it, it does give me ff's.. I don't know why.. I have tried CH341A Programmer 1.18, 1.30, 1.34 too.

Connect the laptops main battery. Then with the ch341a reader's clip push all the way down to the motherboard, and then release the clips to lock in slowly. It's a little tricky. As far as I remember there is a solid LED light when all 8 pins are connected. Otherwise the light is not as bright and it flickers. Make sure you also have installed the drivers, it's pretty easy under windows. I've tried Linux with success too, you have a better output of the connection there, but windows overall is easier.
Edit: I also remember with the widows software, the chip might not have been selected to **FV, but another one for successful readings.

@Chuck6 - It's not vBIOS either

For W25Q64FV use 1.30 and W25Q64BV ID - But, the above image shows incorrectly connected chip (need reclamped, or you need to connect main battery or PSU etc)

@Lost_N_BIOS Thanks for helping me! Can you make me a new bios? I managed to get the bios from that chip finally! It says a "enter password" when trying to boot up the pc, so i wanna get rid of that.

@Chuck6 - You're welcome! So, you have it booting now? if yes, great! So, about the password, was this not your laptop originally?
If password is stored in BIOS, I can help you to remove it by editing your system details into a stock BIOS, but if it's not stored in BIOS this will not work and password will remain.
Is the above dump your BIOS, meaning this has your correct serial, UUID, MAC ID etc?
