Hello Alexander, yes please send a verbose log (probing for the chip is good enough for now, no need to read/write). Can you confirm that this is the board in question? http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01077676&tmp_task=prodinfoCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&product=3548643 You seem to be under the impression that the graphics core uses a separate flash chip for its firmware. This is probably not the case. Instead it shares it with the "BIOS" chip that flashrom accesses. -- Kind regards/Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Stefan Tauner _______________________________________________ flashrom mailing list [email protected] http://www.flashrom.org/mailman/listinfo/flashrom
