As best I can make out I think (80% sure) my SPI flash chip is a Winbond W25Q64JW. The print is so small my wife said it looked like braille to her, and I thought she had better eyesight than me. My only doubt is it may say W25Q32JW, but like I said my best guess is W25Q64JW. Either way it is a 1.8v chip according to the Winbond Datasheets, both of which I have saved for reference. Thanks for the reply. I was trying to make it too simple :-) Clay > > On Wed, Oct 7, 2020 at 9:43 AM Clay Daniels <clay.daniels...@gmail.com> > wrote: > > > > > https://www.win-raid.com/t4287f16-GUIDE-The-Beginners-Guide-to-Using-a-CH-A-SPI-Programmer-Flasher-With-Pictures.html > > > > Nice article in general, but it also says: > > "Note: If you are flashing an AMD motherboard, you need to put the 1.8V > adapter into the SPI, and then put the clip assembly onto that." > > > > So is this right? 3.3v for Intel, 1.8v for AMD? > > _______________________________________________ > > flashrom mailing list -- flashrom@flashrom.org > > To unsubscribe send an email to flashrom-le...@flashrom.org >
