Why you do not post your dump bios file here. Someone else will help you ?

Here is my orig DUMP

Don't you notice all the dumps in the topic are around and over 5MB in archived form, yours is only 1.73MB? This can be seen at first glance without even downloading and opening the file you uploaded, and this clearly shows your dump is not OK.

Just like Vesko 356 said. Your dump has a problem.

Re: hp folio 9470m

The size of the BIN is 16MB. I had to .rar it to allow it to be uplaoded the website wouldn't let me upload the .bin file. So the file its 16.8MB in size according to my computer here.

Re: hp folio 9470m

Sorry, I have just started getting into this type of stuff, what does this all mean?

So, if my Dump has a problem, how can I fix it? is there a way to load a stock file? or someone else file onto it?

OK, here is a file (I specifically downloaded yours and edited it) which is also 16MB but archived is only 19.4 KB, simply because it is full of FF. Now do you understand what I'm talking about?

This is result from Alihomee's file ( #74 )



Maybe your issue from your programmer.

okay so extract that and write it. do I set the chip to the q25w128FV? or is this one something different?

I have a Sofei SP20P programmer. Winbond 25Q128FV chip is easy detect by a Raspbery Pi too. ( with CH341A programmer , maybe you should solder out your chip from mainboard before reading chip )
First , choosing your chip name manually.

So I have manually picked that chip. and nothing. thing doesn't power on at all! I have tried to do lots. I can red the chip all day long. But I write it and it goes through just fine. but power button....NOTHING. (and yes it did work previous)

Re: hp folio 9470m

Re: hp folio 9470m

Hello I recently had a corrupted bios on an HP Elitebook Folio 9470m

Symptoms:
No display
Fan Full Speed
Constant flashing caps lock

It had a winbond bios. 25Q128FVSG 1327



I re-flashed the bios using the CH314 programmer from ebay with the 8 pin clamp cable.



I used Asprogrammer for windows 10.


Finally i have attached the 16mb bios that finally worked for me.

Also...

To identify the motherboard you will have to disassemble the laptop

There is a great guide here.

Re: hp folio 9470m

so newbfixer, I tried to use yours and it says its protected, and when I click on the unprotect nothing really happens.
I also tried the file that someone attached under your post. that wrote just fine. still no power with power button plugged in with charger.

think it is just toast?

Re: hp folio 9470m

I think you have a shorted component.
