this is an I2C/SPI programmer (says 24 25 series in the description)
your flash chip is an LPC/FWH one (49 series). So this won't work. LPC
programmers are not cheap (and that will likely not change as they
are rarely used these days).

However, I wonder if you need a programmer at all. As long as both
machines are still booting, you should be able to read/write the
BIOS flash with flashrom's "internal" programmer option. If in doubt,
you can send us a verbose log (or paste it on paste.flashrom.org)
taken with `flashrom -p internal -o logfile.txt`. Only if something
goes wrong and one of the machines isn't booting anymore, you should
need a separate programmer.

If you need a programmer, I'm not sure if I can give a good recom-
mendation. There is the teensy option [1], but it seems pretty much DIY.
What many people do (and succeed) is hot-plugging these flash chips, but
it comes with some risk of course. You can boot a PC normally, then,
while it's running, swap flash chips and then read/write the second
chip like you would during a BIOS update.

Seems correct. The Pm49FL004 datasheet lists the T variant (Pm49FL004T)
so this should be compatible.
