IMPORTANT REALITY CHECK
──────────────────────
BIOS and firmware mistakes can:
• permanently brick your device
• destroy original firmware data
• make recovery impossible

No forum post can reverse physical or irreversible damage.

────────────────────────────────────
WHAT YOU MUST UNDERSTAND BEFORE POSTING
────────────────────────────────────
• No dump = limited or no help
• No exact model / board info = no help
• No history of actions taken = no help

This is not strict for no reason — this is how firmware work actually works.

─────────────────────────────
COMMON REASONS TOPICS ARE CLOSED
─────────────────────────────
• Missing required technical data
• Random BIOS flashing
• Auto-repair tools
• Writing to SPI without verification
• Ignoring pinned instructions

FINAL NOTE
─────────
If you are willing to:
• read carefully
• follow instructions
• provide complete information

You will receive serious technical help here.

If not — your topic will be closed without discussion.
