Yep, if you got your spare chips try 'flashrom -r backup.bin' to get your original BIOS, then replace the chip with an empty one (while the PC is running) and try 'flashrom -wv backup.bin' to write it on the empty chip. If that worked, put away the original chip in a safe place. > Ok, so, after I get my new chips, what proceeds? (I will patch whatever > needs to be patched, too!) Please send the output of 'superiotool -dV', 'lspnp -v', and 'lspci -vvv'. Patch for a first try will follow.
