hi all, i have read the whole thread and i was wondering why doing all these bios flash on a non working notebook.
first thing to do is to know why notebook died. high temperature, some voltage kick, nothing special?
to spot a problem we need to focus on synthom the pc give to us.
fan spin then power off can be: cpu or ram problem or bios problem.
ec bios is responsible to light , power botton and kbc controller. to see if ec is ok, notebook works fine to power botton pressing, battery charge led, 3.3 volt on battery connector. if all that are ok, then ec is fine and no need to reflash.
also ec or kbc is flashable, but depend on kbc controller. if u have a 8 pin chip, then u can use a normal bios programmer. if it has no 8 pin bios chip and u have ite8587, then u need a svod programmer and use keyboard connector on notebook to flash it, but pc shoud stay on...
try to flash back old ec (u saved original file?) then try just to flash main 8mb bios in it.
insert only one stick or ram.
u say fan stay 100% , but how many seconds ?
if u have bad ram, notebook wil power on then off almost immediately.
so first try to do a backroll on ec and just working bios. then we can see if there is some problem on voltage ic supply.(shorts )
how many seconds pc will stay on? it do the same without cpu ram vga ?
