Hi,
Here is some more info regarding my last email. Writing the new flash
image failed. Before that I read the old and verified it with flashrom.

$ sudo flashrom -v bios_old_2013-05-26.bin
flashrom v0.9.5.2-r1517 on Linux 3.2.0-44-generic (x86_64), built with
libpci 3.1.8, GCC 4.6.3, little endian
flashrom is free software, get the source code at http://www.flashrom.org
Calibrating delay loop... OK.
Found chipset "NVIDIA MCP67". Enabling flash write... This chipset is
not really supported yet. Guesswork...
Please send the output of "flashrom -V" to [email protected] with
your board name: flashrom -V as the subject to help us finish support
for your
chipset. Thanks.
OK.
Found PMC flash chip "Pm49FL004" (512 kB, LPC, FWH) at physical address
0xfff80000.
Flash image seems to be a legacy BIOS. Disabling coreboot-related checks.
Reading old flash chip contents... done.
Verifying flash... VERIFIED.

Uh oh. Erase/write failed. Checking if anything changed.
Good. It seems nothing was changed.
Writing to the flash chip apparently didn't do anything.
This means we have to add special support for your board, programmer or
flash chip.
Please report this on IRC at irc.freenode.net (channel #flashrom) or
mail [email protected]!

You may now reboot or simply leave the machine running.
