    Late response but I have g5 studio with activated computrace which blocks os if I don`t remove it`s files after each boot. I thought I can dump bios and try to clear $vss section which will allow me to reprogram board using winbdmifit. Main bios is stored in macronix chip and it seems the only way to read dump is to desolder it and read with external programmer like ch341a.
