I follow the thread:
https://www.bios-mods.com/forum/Thread-T...ware-Flash

To BDMaster:

whether I Flash 2.63 BIOS first
then dump BIOS from EEPROM Programmer
Send to you , you will give me a .ROM file for NWL
I pack it in .SL1 Files and rebuild BIOS ROM
finally,i use this file flash MXIC on EEPROM Programmer

Hi,

i flashed my bios some days ago, with your plan A equipment (CH341A + Testclip).
You only have to readout the EEPROM(s) and post it right here.

The patched File can be directly flashed with the CH341A Programmer.

I used CH341A + Testclip to dump bios online.
but i find the bin files dumped can't open with phoenixtool259 ,The files contain nothing.
How you did ?And which's your Program?
If tomorrow i still can dump the bios,i will use Atten AT852D Solder Station to finish it.

I think You have to use the Solder Station !
