Re: HP EliteDesk 805 G6 Mini PC

Hello kulokutoys, thank you for your help.
unfortunately no... no jump on this late motherboard. I don't have a hot gun (and soldering would void the warranty still in progress), I'm going to use a SOP8 adapter clip after disassembled the PCB of the MB (not powered), do you know what is the risk of this not reliable method ? to damage the EEPROM or having to repeat the operation several times ? "often lead to an empty or corrupt dump" Thank you

Hello SMDFlea
Thank you for your answer.
I checked, it is a MX25L25673G EEPROM => SOP8, so I will buy a programmer from ali.
When you say SOP8 adapter "often lead to an empty or corrupt dump"
=> this is due to the clip moving (bad pin connections) or electrical interferences (3V/5V) ?
By the way, with the SOP8 adapter, during the manipulation (read/write), the PC (of the EEPROM) remain power off ? and the EEPROM is power by the USB of the PC which read the data ?
If you have a youtube link to explain...

Hello,
I introduced myself last week but probably in the wrong section of the forum...
I am a computer scientist, with skills in electronics and beginner in microelectronics. I repair PCs that are put in the trash for the benefit of others. In recent years, these PCs have been harder and harder to repair, the bios are locked and that's how I met your forum
Thank you for your help

I bought a second-hand HP EliteDesk 805 G6 small PC, and I noticed afterwards... that the bios is protected by a admin password.
I have access to W10 as an admin, but features and devices (networks) must be disabled in the bios protected by this password.
I read rules and your instructions, and I understand that thanks to the "HP firmware update and recovery" utility under W10 (downloaded from the official...
