    I got another 9010 and decided to just desolder the chips from the working system and clone them. The bad bios update system is working now, just need to resolder the chips back on the other system and make sure that one is working again aswell. Sucks i would have liked to have made a working .bin out of that .hdr but it got more complicated then desolder a bunch of chip from the spare 9010. Thanks for your help though.

    The spare was A11 aswell so i guess im stuck at that version.

    Hmm post that backup of good to see if i can fix original by comparing copy paste.

    The hdr isnt full bios bin. Thats why i always ask to make backup of broken.

    Does anyone still have the dumped BIOS files listed above? The link above is dead and I need to revive one of these machines. Thank you.
