I need to reflash a dead bios from a laptop mainboard, but my soldering skills are extremely poor and I don't want to risk killing it completely.
I'm going to buy a Wilhem USB programmer, but first I need to know which adapters are compatible for programming the chip without soldering.
I think I need this adapter: http://www.hmcelectronics.com/product/Pomona/5733
But I don't know how exactly to connect the pins to the programmer. Would two packs of these wires be enough?? http://www.mcumall.com/comersus/store/comersus_viewItem.asp?idProduct=4244
Does the programmer have pins to connect the wires directly???
Please guys, I need your help, I have to revive this laptop as soon as possible! |

Posted - 10/24/2011 : 12:45:10 May I ask why?
The Pomona 5733 adapter has been designed to clip onto soldered chips. There's no need to desolder anything.
Can I connect the cables from the Pomona adapter to your universal adapter (ADP-023) ??
Please, tell me what is the problem. The cables conduct electricity. They should work as long as they are connected to the correct pins!

Posted - 10/24/2011 : 09:18:09 all PLCC32 BIOS chips have to remove from the motherboard. it must be programmed on the programmer. |

Posted - 10/21/2011 : 04:34:35 My idea is to buy the willem usb 4x programmer.
I'd also order two adapters like this one: http://www.mcumall.com/comersus/store/comersus_viewItem.asp?idProduct=4306
But then, how would I connect the pins? In what order??
The BIOS is a SST39VF040 chip PLCC with 32 pins soldered directly on the laptop mainboard.
Thanks a million!
