    Requesting BIOS for NEC VersaPro VX-2

    [Manufacturer]
    NEC

    [Laptop model] There are several model-names I found on this laptop.
    VersaPro VX-2
    VKT16X-2
    PC-VKT16XZG2

    [Mother board model]
    DNLL1/L2 LA-C423P Rev:1.0
    (Picture is also attached on this thread)

    [BIOS chip model]
    Winbond 25Q128JVSQ
    (Extracted 16MB of dump data from possibly corrupted chip via CH341A is attached on this thread)

    [What I've tested so far]
    I have a bricked laptop which lights up power & charging lamp when I plug in the ac adaptor and when I push the power button the led on it changes its color to green.

    But It never turns on backlight nor any image on monitor.
    I plugged in HDMI cable trying to see if it could output any image onto external monitor, but all I could see on the external monitor was "No Signal".

    When I let the laptop sit for a while after turing on, eventually the fan starts to kick in.

    By considering these symptoms above, I think the Power-management IC is up and running, but the bios is corrupted for some reason.

    So I want to reprogram the BIOS chip.
    The manufacturer has BIOS updating software on the web, but the problem is that the program is supposed to run on Windows.
    -The download URL is as follows.
    (https://support.nec-lavie.jp/driver/...odule_no=11409)
    (The update program is also attached.)

    Currently I can't even get to see BIOS menu before loading Windows...

    If you have working BIOS data on this model, that would help me a lot.
    Thank you in advance!

        Actually I didn't solve the problem.
        Today I checked on the motherboad with DMM for further possible faults, then I found the CPU on the laptop was shorted to death.

        If I change the CPU for a working one, that might bring it back to life, but I don't have that skill nor the budget to have someone to do it.

        Therefore unfortunately there is no meaning for me to get a working BIOS now.
        As you said, this info might help someone in the future.

          I have the same request as this. hoping you can help me bypass the bios for this laptop model:

          VersaPro VX-2
          VKT16X-2
          PC-VKT16XZG2

          How do I reset this to default?

          Thank you all.

            read the rules and post your bios dump. what means "bypass the bios"? it has password? describe your problem.

              Apologies on this. I am not yet so well verse in bios settings.

              I recently acquired the said laptop but no HDD. upon trying to install a new HDD and trying to reformat via USB drive, I found out that cannot enter bios setup since the previous owner has set an "Admin password" or "Supervisor Password".

              Thus, I am not able to do anything unless I can remove the password. Can anyone help me on this.

              Thank you.
