Just found your channel yesterday and been watching all your videos! Great video! Could you do a video on programming a bios when you get the error that says "the rom is too big for the ic" Please show how you go about getting around this problem. That would be awesome 👌

Ive never encountered that porblem actually. Which software do you use and on what board is it happening? On Asus?

@@cfq.tufanuf7601 That is because Asus only provides a .CAP file on their side which is bigger then the actual Bios. I will need to make a video explaining how to do that, but you basicly have to extract the .bin from the .cap

Can you just use a normal power supply tester or something? What is that plugs in the main 24 pin? Don't you have a regular stock stock cpu fan

Hey there you could of course use a normal ATX power supply, but i need to monitor the Current that the board draws! It tells you a lot about the state of the Board! And i am using a 1200W server PSU that only outputs 12V and that goes into the current sensor and then into a 12V to ATX 24 pin adapter! I do have a stock CPU fan, i only mount it for actual testing when the board runs!

And you have made by yourself this 24 pin adapter for the 12 v providing extra voltages using the 2 switching power supply on the small pcb ? @MainboardMedic

Thats how it works, but its an off the shelf product! I think its called a pico adapter or something like 12V to 24 pin adapter!

We need socketed EEProms on all the motherboards
@MainboardMedic4 ай бұрын
Back in the day it was that easy! But most of the Vendors include a header which is directly connected to the EEProm. which makes programming them super easy, i just amde an adapter cable myself and that is even easier then having a socket!

I have same board. Bios 1.8v missing then found a short capacitor, after removing short not booting up so tried to flash bios by ch341A unfortunately offical website bios size larger than chip. Anyone have bin bios file?
@MainboardMedicАй бұрын
The .CAP file from asus is always to big, because off something called a header File. There is a programm called UEFI tools, with which you can extract the actual Bios image from the CAP that will have the right size!
