Hi, I just got the GQ-4X with ADP-081
Im new in this, so I try to play around. I have 2 identical laptops with soic8 (W25q80-soic8) I copy the original file to have a backup. And download different version of the Bios from HP. The file came in EXE and I extract with WinRar the BIN file.
I can identify, read, erase, write and verify the chip without problems. But the laptop will only work with the original file I got from the chip. Wen I try to use the BIN file I download from HP dont't work. I already try with different versions of BIOS and it wont work. I would like to know if Im doing something wrong, or I have to add something to the BIN/Code file before I write down.
Here is what I do:
Steps:
1.Extract the .exe file with WinRar to get the .bin file.
2.Run the software and connect the programmer.
3.Select a device from the device list which is your BIOS chip part number.(W25q80-soic8)
4.Load the .bin file into the software buffer.
5.Place your bios chip on the programmer adapter and lock it.
6.Click ID button. It should report the correct ID.
7.Then Erase->BlankCheck->Write->Verify
8.Install the BIOS in to the Motherboard
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance,
Mike |

Not all bios updaters have the full file as you would write it to the chip.
If yours is one of those, you need to flash a machine with the bios update - then dump the chip and use that dump in future. |
