Corrupt BIOS after BIOS mod
#1
I was trying to do some light gaming on my Gateway NE56R laptop. I wanted to access features not available in my stock BIOS such as fan speed and VRAM. 

So, installed a modded BIOS that I requested from https://www.bios-mods.com. Once I started up my laptop and went into the BIOS and changed the settings, I saved and exited, which made my computer shutdown. When I would turn it back on, the LED's would come on for about 2-3 seconds before turning back off. 

I have tried the tricks such as holding down the power button from 30-60 secs and removing the CMOS battery for 3 days, which did not work. So I bought a new BIOS chip for my model, removed the old one, then soldered the new one on. BUT STILL the same result. I am not sure if i have two BIOS chips on my mother board, or if the one I ordered was not for the BIOS (although I'm sure pretty sure it was). 

I'm not sure if I need to replace the other chip that is identical to the one I replaced, or replace a whole different chip. I don't have any important files on my laptop so I don't mind selling it right now for parts (which really sucks because I just upgraded the RAM and processor before corrupting it). 

Any advice or tips would be greatly appreciated, as I would like to confirm if my laptop is bricked, and if there is any hope to bring it back to life. I'll attach links to the pictures of the chip and mobo.

(P.S. I have also tried flashing the BIOS and it did not work. I might have done it wrong but I will try again with the new chip)

Hello!Recovery mode not help you if your laptop was bricked after bad changes in Setup menu.
Only SPI PGM_Pomona soic8 clip can do this job!
Just read content of these chips
EN25Q32B,EN25Q80A and provide it to me.
I will restore default settings so you laptop can be aliveSmile

Please,do not post requests me in PM.Bios modding is very dangerous work.If i provide you confirmed modded bios, please donate for my dangerous work https://goo.gl/98BgtO.Thank you!
