I purchased two machines which has the Intel AMT disabled (3 - disabled sticker on the chasis)
After reading a few posts, its clear that I need to re-flash the bios. However since this system doesn’t have the service jumper, I will need to do it the hard way.
I am new to all this and so any help would be appreciated.
I have included images of the motherboard, to help identify which chip(s) are the bios ones.
Then I need to know what programmer to purchase and go from there.
Make dumps for safe keep, using the programmer and also with Intel FPT tool
DO NOT RUSH these operations or you’ll get a death system.
Read guides and CSME tools guidance
Thats correct…you used v14 and your platform is Alder Lake v16
What you need is to know, is your own hardware… and not engage wrong tools/actions.
Tools like HWinfo and Aida64 can be used, providing almost every information of the platform.
Its not surprise at all… this is a branded OEM system and a lot of them have SPI access locked for preventing firmware modifications/security.
So this forces lot of users to try the CH341A programmer or similar.
Some ICs, even have to be de-soldered for reading/programming.
Your not the first with this situation and definitely not the last one…
Here’s an identical situation like yours on a Dell 7080
EDIT: I don’t need any dumps as i do not intend to lose my time with these or any other similar issue. I helped you and pointed you the way/tools, that’s it.
I did not offer myself to solve your issue.
You need to read all the links i posted in order to LEARN FORM IT, then you wont need to repeat yourself and posting the same info you already did.
The CH341A device works with many available apps out there. Some do have the ICs on their database, some don’t, some likes to work with some boards/ics, others don’t.
I posted the guides links, the original IC manufacturer links and what kind of ICS you have in order to purchase the correct interface clips for each IC, WSON8 and SOP8.
