I installed a bios shared on the forum on my device and now my device does not turn on. Bios completely crashed. When I plug the device in, the LED light blinks one blue and one red.

I had tried to make a backup on my device without updating the bios. I am attaching the file I received with the AMI program and the pictures of my device. I bought a CH341A ubs device for bios update, I can read the bios chip with it. Can anyone share the proper bios with me. Thanks a lot for your help.

NOTE: I wrote my article with google translate. sorry for typos :)

Hello, first of all, I urge everyone in the forum not to flash the BIOS by mistake. You can now try to discharge the machine to reset the BIOS settings. This is the W8 discharge tutorial: I will follow up your question. Please tell me after you try. Looking forward to your reply.

FoRBIddenN,

To elaborate on the video, you want to concentrate on the battery part. Disconnect the battery connector from the system board, then either leave the battery disconnected for at least a half hour or more, or take some type of piece of metal and make contact between the two battery connection poles on the system board, like you're trying to short it out. NOT the connector on the end of the battery cable, but the one on the board that the battery cable connector plugs into. Leaving the battery disconnected or "shorting" the two connector poles will cause the BIOS to reset.

You can then reconnect the battery, reassemble the unit, reconnect everything and turn it on like normal.

First of all, thank you for your effort, but you misunderstand the situation.

My problem is that while updating the bios software, the bios crashed completely as a result of installing the wrong software, and it was bricked. You cannot fix this problem by removing the battery and resetting the bios. The bios needs to be rewritten and flashed. The device has been waiting for days without a battery, but nothing has changed. So the method you presented does not suit me. I need me BIN. ROM. HEX. bios file I will be able to flash and write again with my CH341A device.

Sorry, but if you have a tool to burn bios, you can flash it back. Please provide the previous bios version picture, or the version pictured on the main interface of the motherboard, I will provide you with the correct BIOS version based on these.
