Zbook 15u g6 bios chip location

Hi All,
Can anyone point me in the direction of the bios chip(s) for a Zbook 15u G6?
I believe it to be the same board layout as a 840 G6, too. The packages look different than what I'd normally expect, unless I'm looking in the wrong spot.
TIA

Is it a 8-wson on this board? I was poking around and the only Winbond chip I was able to see was hiding under some black sticky plastic under the wireless wan card.

Zbook 15U G6 motherboard 6050A3022501-MB-A01-1 BIOS file Request

Zbook 15 G6 with motherboard 6050A3022501-MB-A01-1 similar to elitebook 850 G6 and 840G6 has suffered a damage in the BIOS.

Computer cannot be started and goes into a loop with fan ON keyboard leds ON all OFF and then again same infite loop. (I have a video but i cannot post)

BIOS is not posting at all

BIOS Chip MXIC_MX25L25673GZ4I_08G 6x8

Questions:

1. Can Someone post the original BIOS file?
2. Is there a way to extract this BIOS file from the most recent HP update (HP support site)
3. I will be using the programmer CH341a for programming. Since it is the first time I am doing that, are there an instructions/piece of advice/precautions ?
4. If an elitebook 850 G6 BIOS is given how will I change BIOS information to indicate that it is a Zbook 15U?

Thank you in advance

First of all please read the rules and post the laptop serial number - https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=103570 .In that thread there`s a link to the "BIOS guides, methods, resources and tools" thread, there`s some info about programming with the CH341A,and some alternative better software such as NeoProgrammer . You have a socketed bios thats good, but do you have a WSON8 adapter board to solder the chip onto,or have one with a lid,like the socket on your board ?

Its very important that you make a good backup of your own bios,even if it is corrupted in some way.It could be repairable. I would not recommend flashing any other bios until you make good backups.

Re: ZBook 15u G6 BIOS CRESCENT-6050A3022501-MB-A01

use this no need DMI data no need rebuild. flash first the 32mb leave the 16mb if it doesn't boot use both 32 and 16.
it works in these models HP EliteBook 840 G6 BIOS ZBook 15u G6
R70_010300- CRESCENT-6050A3022501-MB-A01

note: make sure your ssd with os from that laptop is installed in first boot.
it auto recovers DMI in ssd installed.

Can you please clarify or tell me where do I have to read in order understand when you say flash the 32 and then the 16. What is the difference.

I went in detail trough the write up and I have extracted the XXX.bin file for the Hp support site. Will that extracted official bin file not work??

What programmer are you advising me to use?

What programmer are you advising me to use?

what i mean is flash the main 32mb first do not touch your original EC16MB.
if it doesn't work use both main and ec.
you can use ch341a with neo programmer. do not use AS programmer it's outdated. or use any spi programmer

Yes it is clear now and thanks alot for the clarifications. May I ask some questions in case the answers are known:

1. After having one or two chips flashed and on condition that system has been restored and computer has started (normal operation) will lit be possible to re-update the system the normal way or i have to always keep the given firmware you have given me.

2. Say that system is restored with one chip changed (the 32mb) will the second one EC16 will be influenced during a BIOS update?

As far as the programmer CH341a i saw that i have to do a voltage modification (voltage reduction) due to a design flaw in the power supply

Studying the reverting with results

Everything has been rectified and the computer came alive again after the very good instructions of SMDflea and REX98

I flashed the x32 (Macronix controller) with the universal BIOS

Of course I went in detail, through the links for BIOS Guides.

Special Thanks to the above mentioned members and to all community for the knowledge put her in this excellent site
