For repair workshops
Upload the dump. Run the operation. Get the file ready to flash.
The analysis is free and instant, dual-chip included: the machine is identified, the chip checked, then you run operations on the dump.
Free signup, no card required.

- What we do and do not do
What you get
A clear answer, then a file
The machine's sheet
Brand, model, reseller, BIOS version, and the dump's state: complete, partial or misread.
The operations that apply
Only those; the ones that do not apply say why. Several operations possible on the same upload.
The file, ready to program
Named after the machine and the operation. Two-chip boards: we tell you which chip to program.
Operations
Workshop operations, online
Each is offered only when your dump allows it.
Clear the BIOS / EC password
The password is erased from the dump; it is never revealed.
Dell, HP, ASUS / AMI, Acer / Insyde / Phoenix, Lenovo ThinkPad, Huawei / Honor.
Clear ME
PCH swapped, SSD or Wi-Fi not detected: the ME starts again as on first boot. It is not disabled.
Intel, CSME 11 to 20.
Disable soldered RAM
The soldered memory is no longer used: the machine boots on the memory stick.
Intel and AMD, DDR4 and DDR5.
Extract from the dump
The chip's parts and the EC image ready to program, without changing anything.
Intel and AMD, including a BIOS-only dump; ready-to-program EC image for ITE and ENE controllers.
Rebuild from the manufacturer update
A BIOS rebuilt from the official update, with your machine's identity.
Intel and AMD, one or two chips, with the manufacturer's update for that model.
Extract a manufacturer package
What a manufacturer update contains, file by file, in seconds.
Updates as manufacturers publish them: executables, archives, disk images, capsules.
Start from the symptom

- Clear the BIOS / EC password
- Failed soldered RAM: memory beeps, black screen
- Disable soldered RAM
- Interrupted update, corrupted BIOS
- Rebuild from the manufacturer update
- EC chip to reprogram
- Extract from the dump
- See what a manufacturer update contains
- Extract a manufacturer package
- Motherboard replaced: serial number, UUID or Windows key lost
- Motherboard replacement
- Board without a label: find out which machine it is
- Dump analysis
How it works
Four steps
- 01
Upload the dump
The .bin or .rom file read with your programmer; both files for a two-chip board.
- 02
Read the sheet
In seconds and free: the machine, the chip's state, the possible operations.
- 03
Run the operation
Pick one of those the sheet offers. If the operation cannot complete, the refusal says why and no file is delivered.
- 04
Program the file
Download it and program the chip. Always keep the original dump.
Who it's for
Built for people who repair
Independent repairers
One dump, one answer, one file: no tool to install, no script version to hunt down.
Micro-soldering workshops
PCH swap, reballing, EC chip: the operation that follows the repair, on the chip you just read.
After-sales, resellers and system builders
The same checks for the whole team, the history of every job, and Clevo or TongFang whitebooks recognised with their reseller.
Privacy
Your files stay yours
- Your files are isolated per account.
- They are erased 24 h after upload.
- The machine's identity (serial, UUID, MAC, Windows key) is only visible from your account, never published or shared.
- Every file is checked on arrival; a manufacturer package is never executed.
Questions
Before you start
Which files can I upload?
The full BIOS chip dump, read with a programmer, as a .bin or .rom file. For a two-chip board, upload both files together; the EC chip dump can be added, three files at most.
Is the analysis really free?
Yes. It does not change your file: it identifies the machine and tells you what is possible.
How long does it take?
A few seconds for the analysis, as for most operations.
Upload your first dump
Create an account: the analysis is free and takes a few seconds.
