New toys here - Pogo pins & EC/IO Programmer adapters/sockets

[mikanikolic]

I'm glad that you finally started to think about yourself and buy a tool that will make your job easier. We've always said that you deserve to have a professional tool!

Can totally see you providing this programming service in the UK. Sounds like there is a need if you need to send off to Romania every time.

I have used the ch341a and have programed a few ec chips. Wired it into the keyboard. And was ver successful.

I like Sorin's toy box. Thanks for sharing!

yay new tools! next you see Sorin saying "the hinge is tight", it's a bios issue!, lets flash it. kidding aside, looking forward to see you use the new tools and learn something in the process. Thanks!

It’s a good Friday, much better than Chocolate. Those tools will pay for themselves in no time 👍

I keep hearing about programming using the keyboard connector but I've not seen anyone show how you do this yet.

Hi Sorin
Sorry to disagree with you but you can programme the EC chip on board via keyboard connector on the NM-D562, But at least now you have the tools tp programme EC chips off board and i use the NEW Vertyanov Successor which is fantastic i also have the SVOD & RT809H

I agree hardware is more rewarding. Thank you for sharing.

Hi, Sorin.
I bought used lenovo laptops with locked bios. Can i use this type of the programmers to delete old bios and write a new one, and unlock bios on that way? Is that purpose also of this programmer?

[MrRvdbeek]

Thanks interesting stuff
Hopefully you can show us the new way of repair something

[berberger]

Thank you for the meme at the beginning 👍

Sorin, when showing the programming, can you show the chip data information and show what pins go to which chip pin and why. Some of these clamp have wires that you can move and I would like to know how you check that you are connected to the correct pin. Thanks

Really enjoying your content, thank you Sorin

I wonder if electronic manufacturers can make or there exist a universal BIOS chip which can be programmed to any computers specification.

[trilhosdoalgarvebtt]

Hello... I´m noticind that you programed some bios without removing the bios chip, i allways eard that you need to remove the bios chip because it´s connected to the EC bios and it can mess things up, you do it only in some boards or we can simply program all bios´s of all boards without removing them, not fearing if they will mess up the ec chip bios!?
