Genuinley Thankyou so much. 3 days ago i did a bios update on the same board as you. Literally didnt even turn on... I knew what i done but never knew about the ch341a for £10 it was worth a go and with your guide on repeat for about 2 hours i felt confident enough to attempt it alot of fiddling with the clip later and i have one working PC!!! I had 3 long beeps at first and reseated the ram but after turning it on 5 or 6 times it fired up and has been running flawlessly for 6 hours. I cannot Thankyou enough youve earened a sub from me for sure.

Good morning, sorry to bother you, but I have seen that you are an electronics specialist and I was wondering if you could give me some solution. I have a Sindoh 3D 3DWOX 3D printer and when I inserted a USB flash drive to update the firmware, there was a power outage. Now only the Sindoh presentation screen is displayed and the image is frozen there. I have disconnected the printer from the power and even removed the internal battery from the motherboard but it remains the same. There is no way it does anything. It has been left frozen. I'm afraid the firmware has become corrupt. I have observed that the motherboard has some jumpers, I don't know if any of them have any use. Can you help me please? Any suggestions to force flashing the firmware? How can I find out which chip on the printer's motherboard is the EEPROM? Thank you very much in advance.

The bin was the result of reading the bios, he ran the read a few times which generated a few bin files. He then checked the hash of the files to ensure it reads the same thing every time, which means the connection from the device to bios is good.

I just want to comment that you DON'T need clips to flash your BIOS ROM. Commonly those pins are exposed, eg in MSI mainboards you have JSPI1 connector, where you can directly access the pins in more reliable way than clips. Just keep in mind that those are 2mm pins, smaller than regular 2.5mm. All you need to do is to: - check the pin layout, eg with multimeter and chip documentation - get proper 2mm cables - connect them between connector on your board and CH341A - download bios ROM and flash it with CH341A compatible software Safer and cheaper than clips!

Great video man! I just bought a MSI mining motherboard off eBay that I suspect has a corrupted bios. It won't post past the setup screen.

You could try a PS/2 keyboard, if the BIOS is having problems initializing the USB controller sometimes it won't detect USB keyboards. Some motherboards have an EZ Flash system where you can press a button or boot with a special USB. I would suggest looking at the manual to the motherboard otherwise you will have flash the BIOS externally.

I clipped the programmar to the bios chip, had to move it around like 10x before I got a connection. After, I went to MSI downloaded latest version, and flashed it onto the chip.

I'm curious.. when the PCH doesn't detect supported CPU in the bios, it doesn't initialize the CPU right? So what's activating the LED? I mean, there's motherboards that throw beep codes or led blink code when something goes wrong like CPU or memory not detected.. is there anything inside the board that runs code before CPU? Does the PCH runs some code before CPU? superio/kbc? There must be some code to check the system, right?

How big is your BIOS chip? If you read from it in flashrom it should output the size. Some laptops have two separate BIOS chips that show up to the system as one chip. You can see something similar in my Thinkpad T440p coreboot video. The difficult thing is I'm not sure what file goes to which chip. You could always try flashing in one order and see if that works. If it doesn't try flipping the order. Make sure to make a backup of the current BIOS just in case. Hope that helps! Let me know if you have any other questions

@@DeviceCastingCouchTechPodcast looking at the actual board it appears to be a 25q64JVS chip made by winbond. There is only one. Datasheet comes up as a 64 megabyte serial Flash. I would assume that this is it. So apparently 64Mb which makes even less sense that there'd be two files when they're only 8mb. I have checked every 8 Pin chip on the motherboard. The rest all seem to be either n Channel mosfets or voltage regulators.

Normally a bricked BIOS is a corrupted image and prevents the motherboard from initializing. If you flash externally you can fix that you just have to make sure your BIOS chip and your programmer are connected properly or it could physically damage the chip.

Are you sure it is the right chip you are trying to connect to? If using the original clip it does take a couple of tries. If you think you clip is the problem try and make sure the gold pins didn't slide up. You will because if you look at the top of the clip where the wires come in you will see gold pins. You can try pushing it down the pins and re-clamping to the chip. These cheap clips aren't the best quality. If you are still suspecting your clip is the problem you could look into Pomona clips they are much better quality but they cost more.

If you're not getting any lights from your keyboard or mouse and fans are still spinning, and there's no output to monitors, you have most likely bricked your motherboard. Before you go ahead and buy a bios programmar, try some troubleshooting options. 1) Take out the CMOS Battery, and unplug the pc from power, hold the power button to get all the juice out. There should be two jumpers, called JBAT1, put a screw driver between both of them, so you're shortening it. Check this video how to jump it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rH-7Z2CaoKuYr5Y 2) Take one stick of ram out, power on, take two sticks off ram out, power on and see if it posts. 3) Take out all USB Devices connected to your PC, literally everything except your output cables, take out ram, unplug sata cables. If no success, then YES it's bricked. - I would buy a Bios Programmer for 10< pounds, and that should work smoothly. - I would not advise you to NOT follow this tutorial, as this is not a very efficient way of flashing the chip, asprogrammer is a better software for flashing than some command prompt. Better video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aqK7Y62fnadpi6c Please do not go to pc repair shops, it's not worth it - they will rob you for all your money, and then can steal your parts - my local pc repair shop stole parts of a customers phone, and celetaped parts on. If you need any help, if you decide to order a bios programmer, please contact me on Adaks#7039, and let me know if you've sent a request - I will be sure to help you. - This is how my experience went with my bricked motherboard: This has happened to me 2 weeks ago, when I updated my bios and after 100% completed download, it restarted and returned with no post, I believe that the USB Flash Drive that I was using was not very efficient in storing this type of data, and was mainly made for pictures and or video and not to store code in. I had to buy a bios programmar for 12 pounds and came next day from amazon, and then I had to install the Bios Programmer drivers, and install AsProgrammer (AsProgrammar is a free open sourced tool which lets you read and write to the chip using the programmer). I clipped the programmar to the bios chip, had to move it around like 10x before I got a connection. After, I went to MSI downloaded latest version, and flashed it onto the chip.

There are many different types of chip but this flasher should be able to handle it. First identify what kind of chip it is like you can either Google this or open your system up. Once you identify it as being a SOIC8, SOIC16, WSON8, etc. You can figure out if the clip will work or if you will have to solder. Also be sure to look up the datasheet and determine what voltage the chip is expecting

Not sure, but, he removed the battery, so the bios configuration is lost. I believe when he got the first boot, it says "all defaults are loaded" and it may boot normally if you have a disk with a OS (if its the first disk on the boot order, etc).

@@navossoc Ok thank you. I flashed the 8 pins memory chip with the latest BIOS and all went back like if nothing ever happened with all settings set to "Default" settings.

@@TheGangster No, we gave up on it... Seems there are some motherboards that have some electrical components nearby that prevent a good read/write, so you need to remove the chip (unsolder) from the board, but we never tried that... Now the motherboard is a nice keychain hahah...

How to know if the bios is 24 or 25?

On the bottom of the CH341A it say 25 is for SPI BIOS. If you are unsure you can always look up the chip you are trying to connect to and see what its datasheet says

Nice video, up till the Linux point. It comes with Windows original software, why dont you use it? Are you really think that most of the users will install Linux for the bios update? Well ok you did it for Linux too, no problem, but you havent done the same for Windows. This is just a big bruh moment.
