Any got a reupload on that flashrom for windows+driver link?

@a.mihail91 - What post #? #510 is attached so should be OK, same for #504, so not sure which files you're asking about
You'll need to give post # and or "tag" the user with @ directly followed by user name like I've done for your name here, and the name must be exactly as it's written (case sensitive too)

HI how did you get that software. I have the version 1.34 but I still could not find the option for the mx25u12873f for my MSI B350. Can you link me to the download page or upload the one your using. Also will the clamp method work wit the 1.8v adapter?

@a.mihail91

PM me your eMail

Edit.: Found how to upload file. Now How? to delete this post?

@Lost_N_BIOS and @Coderush
Still owe you both a big thanks for enabling me resolving issues with two PC's due to your posts in these forums. You are great and benovalent persons indeed.

Due to you I purchased this great CH341A tool and I recovered two PC's with a clean bios I found posted. I have yet to edit back the original OEM details and MAC address but were to concerned screwing it up again. Will get to it soon I hope.

Edit. Nearly forgot about Coderush's contribution to my success.

Hello,
ASUS Z17-WS motherboard
https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/Z170-WS/HelpDesk_BIOS/
I would like to buy:
1. a BIOS chip (Winbond-25Q128FVIQ1529) for motherboard
http://www.bios-chip24.com/epages/637300...roducts%2F32148
2. a CH341A programmer
https://www.aliexpress.com/i/32961518523.html
My problem is that I lost the original BIOS chip (actually the courier lost the package) sent for rewriting to a company, but I saved SN, UUID (using dmidecode in Linux) and the two MAC addresses for the network cards (from Linux file /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules).
I read the user guide for the CH341A programmer but it is unclear to me how to transfer the two MAC addresses because FD44Editor only shows me the first MAC address?

@ibsajc - Please wait, lets see if I can get a full dump from someone, then I will have you send me images of all stickers on your board.
Original "in-BIOS" Serial and UUID will be lost forever, I can re-create partial serial that's added to serial and then becomes in BIOS serial, but UUID can never be original, unless you have ANY previous BIOS backup made on this board with any tool before this happened?
All this info is stored in two locations in the BIOS, some of it possibly at three locations, and FD44 only puts it back at one location and not always correctly either.
The only thing that really matters is MAC ID, and FD44 does not put this back into area that's needed for Ethernet function anyway, so basically this is useless here.

@davidm71 - Do you still have Z170-WS? If not, do you possibly still have a full BIOS dump? If not, BIOS region would be helpful too, but I really need a full dump as well if you have, so I can see GbE
@C:/con/con - Would you mind sending me BIOS dump from your board, if you still have?

@Lost_N_Bios

I will have to check my files as I had upgraded to the Z270-WS from the Z170-WS. I may have a bios dump somewhere. Will take time to locate. Will let you know in next hour or so.

@Lost_N_Bios
I mispronounced myself but I clearly wrote that I have SN, UUID and MAC addresses previously extracted from Linux.
What does "unless you have ANY previous BIOS backup made on this board with any tool before this happened?" What tools are there for Linux?
Flash Image Tool is only for Windows in Intel CSME System Tools v11 r32 and I have Linux.
I think I tested flashrom some time ago, maybe I can find a dump of the SPI chip.

@ibsajc - Yes, I did understand you have those details, sorry I did forget when I mentioned having to recreate UUID though
Serial you have may not be same as what goes in BIOS, I will have to see what you have vs what stickers on the board have etc, once we get there. Sometimes/usually in Asus BIOS letters are added to one of the board/box serials to show date of manufacturer
I do not know what BIOS backup tools there are for Linux, flashrom is one I think, but you could have at some time in the past used DOS tools etc, I don't know, that is why I asked and mentioned that if you had any it would help.
Flash Image Tool is not used for flashing BIOS, if you mean the Intel one, that is for working with ME FW. Flash Programming tool from Intel would work here, and depending on the ME version would have DOS and sometimes EFI, and maybe even Linux I forget.
Anyway, none of that matters, if you don't have a previous backup made with any tool, it's OK, you don't have and we move forward without it. But yes, if you tested flashrom and made a dump and can find, that would be great

So, I have dump now and can move forward, but I will wait and see if you can find your flashrom dump, then there will not be much to find all locations and transfer over.
If you cannot find, please make a zip for me showing all images on the board, don't forget side of 24 pin, top/bottom sides of PCI/PCIE slots, long white sticker any on back if there is too.
Include with that, a text file with the extracted info you mentioned from Linux.

@davidm71 - Thanks!!

Hi guys can you please help me with my laptop.
I have an Acer 4755g which got stuck on Acer logo after i rolled back a previous update of windows.
I already tried everything. Removed the ram, hdd and others but still stuck.
Then I decided to buy the black CH341 programmer and reflash the bios.
I was successfull in detecting, reading and writing on the bios chip however when I plugged my laptop it shows no power, no led indicator. I already checked if my charger has an output voltage, which it does.

I tried to reflash the original content of the bios ic but it still shows no power.

I think I may have flashed the incorrect bios. i got it from here: https://www.acer.com/ac/en/US/content/su...roduct/3803?b=1

Since the bios only contains .rom file, i renamed it to .bin. Did i make i mistake by doing this?

Please help me, because of what is happening in my country and this pandemic, I have lost my job, I can't afford to buy a new laptop now. Hope you help me fix it.

Thank you

@ibsajc Just wanted to add that the dump I provided I have no recollection of what the state of the file was when I found it in an old fptw system tools folder in an old hard drive backup image or what mods it may or may not contain. Hope it works for you.
