Hello !
At June 2018 i've buyed a PCSpecialist laptop (Here complete specifications :
https://www.pcspecialist.fr/configuratio...2UqsN!z2U/)
Cosmos Series : Écran large IPS LED mat 17,3 pouces 60 Hz 72 % NTSC Full HD (1920 x 1080)
Six Core Intel® Core® i7 8750H (2,2 GHz, 4,1 GHz Turbo)
16 Go Corsair 2400 MHz SODIMM DDR4 (1 x 16 Go)
NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 1050 - 4 Go de RAM vidéo GDDR5 - DirectX® 12.1
250 Go SAMSUNG 970 EVO M.2, PCIe NVMe (jusqu'à 3400 Mo/R, 1500 Mo/W)
Clevo N870EJ1 based model
APITO 5 BIOS ! (12Mb eprom flash)
1) Try to unlock the bios via forced flashing (on windows) -> FAIL -> laptop bricked
2) Buying a spi programmer and try to flash the 12mb file on the chip -> FAIL, data disagreement (data difference between chip and fail)
3) Push my search far away -> it's appear to be missing serial number, mac adresse and other personnal data in the bios chip and in the bios file
4) Try to find how to add this information to my bios file : Nothing found about clevo.
5) Serial number and other information are writed on the mother board, i can give you pics.
So i've writed a mail to clevo and then ask me more than 600€ to change the mother board for a bios chip problem :| my bios chip is not damaged, i'm just wondering what i need to write on it to make my laptop boot again.
I don't have any bios backup, shame on me.
Anyone have a better solution ? Or know a way to push serial number and other information on the bios file ? i'll try to fash it and hope it will work.
Note : I'm ready to make a good donation to anyone help me to solve this issue, this laptop cost me more than 1080€ it's a beautiful brick now.
Never buy clevo, it's fully locked, bad sound system, bad screen, poor keyboard, that's why clevo computers are cheap ...
Note 2: I've already unlock an apito 4 bios to overclock my 4720HQ, it's worked with a cpu microcode downgrade, up to 4.4ghz now on a locked cpu, i was just wondering if i was able to unlock my 8700H.
My 4720HQ perform better on single core than my 8700H ... i really regret to buy this laptop ... only the 2 more core get me a better performance.. Intel kidding us.
Thanks ! I'm blocked since 4 month now, really deseperate.
Question : If i buy the exaclty same laptop and dump the bios with my spi programmer for flashing on my other laptop, can it work ?
