Thanks for making me a BIOS without the whitelist.

Unfortunately our Z470 bricked and I'm at wits end trying to get a response from Phoenix Crisis Recovery.

Let me know how ?
Your Laptop has the Gfx Card nVidia so I see into your Bios Backup, then Bios version is the version 4ACNWA !
"4ACN38WA is used for Nvidia Switchable gfx with intel HD 3000" !!!
How It happens ?

I made a dos USB and ran the .bat file; flashing finished without any errors. After it went back to dos prompt I waited 3 more minutes before shutting down the laptop. When I tried to power on, I got no display and the power button LED, bottom LEDs and the upper right shortcut button LED turns on and nothing else happens. After that I tried 3 different USB sticks with phoenix crisis recovery made from an XP laptop but no luck with recovery yet.

After that I dismantled the laptop to remove the cmos battery hoping that clearing CMOS might help but same results as above.

Also yes it does have an nvidia gpu switchable with optimus.

So your laptop version in not 4ACN38WA , It hasn't Nvidia Switchable gfx with intel HD 3000 ?
This can be only cause !
Let me know
Regards

P.S. If You cannot recover buy the Tools CH341A + Clip and I will help to resurvive !
Look here :

I found a trouble as You haven't uploaded the result file and your Bios Backup is wrong that's the cause !!!
Always am asking to use two tools to get real Bios Backup and Always I wrote into my Signature . . .
Don't FLASH the Bios Mod if You get a Size Alert, You risk a Brick !!!
So You get this ?

Hi BDMaster,

Thank you very much helping a noob like me here.
I'm currently checking my laptop's board to see which is the BIOS chip.

So far after some searching with google, I think it is either winbond 25x40bvsig 1131 or winbond 25Q32BV 1128.

I will be ordering the chip programmer and the Clip now though it will probably arrive 3-4 weeks at best here.

I hope you'll guide me by then.

Again thank you.

You have this Eeprom Chip :

--- Flash Devices Found ---
W25Q32BV ID:0xEF4016 Size: 4096KB (32768Kb)

Find the ChipSet (ENE) and You'll find the Eeprom Chip !
