Hello!

I've found some request for whitelist removal on this forum, but my laptop model is different (I believe it's 59344049), so I decided to create new thread.

Here is my spec:
Lenovo g580: i3110M(HM76), Intel HD4000, 8Gb RAM(upgraded), Win10 x64
BIOS: 5ECN42WW (v.4.01)

Wifi whitelisted card: Broadcom BCM943142HM (PCI\VEN_14E4&DEV_4365)
Wifi to install: Atheros AR5B95

Made BIOS backup using "fptw -D bios.rom -BIOS" (https://github.com/LongSoft/FTK)
https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0...25Rcnl0Q0k&usp=sharing

I had error 104, but I edited fparts.txt file and got .rom file

  --- Flash Devices Found ---
    W25Q32BV    ID:0xEF4016    Size: 4096KB (32768Kb) (set Chip Erase Command to 0x60)
    EN25QH16    ID:0x1C7015    Size: 2048KB (16384Kb)


Also I'm interested if I should prepare USB stick (need link to guide pls) and on which flash chip I have actual BIOS and why do I need second one?

Thanks in advance!
