So my one year old PC go to trash?

Hi mick,

I had the same issue, my u55 was bricked after a universal BIOS update.
However I was able to unbrick it, this is what I did:

Firstly, I opened the PC and was able to locate the BIOS chip not far from the CMOS battery. The chip was a Winbond chip W25q64jv.

Then, I contacted the support who sent me the correct firmware corresponding to the SN of my device.

In the meantime, I bought a CH341A BIOS programmer on eBay with clips (it's quite cheap ~10 bucks) and followed a tutorial to bring the flash voltage to 3.3v as the BIOS chip only supported such voltage (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ln3VIZKKaE).


And finally I unplugged the CMOS battery, flashed the BIOS chip with the correct firmware using the flashrom linux utility with the following command:

1. sudo flashrom -p ch341a_spi -w U55T110.BIN

Copy the Code

and plugged back the CMOS battery.

I know it might seem a bit tricky if you don't have computer/electronic skills, if so ask a friend or a professional.

Hope my message can help you and good luck !

I use https://beelink.oss-cn-hongkong. ... BIOS/VB1006_U55.exe

After reading the bios chip,it appears that's only junk data inside this chip!

Maybe someone provide me amibios rom original ,or the latest?
