FAQ (Frequently asked questions)

Unsupported Laptops/Notebooks/Netbooks

Laptops, notebooks and netbooks are difficult to support and we recommend to use the vendor flashing utility. The embedded controller (EC) in these machines often interacts badly with flashing, either by blocking all read/write access to the flash chip or by crashing (it may power off the machine or mess with the battery or cause system instability). More information is available here: Laptops.

Unsupported newer Nvidia chipsets

We support LPC/FWH flash on most Nvidia chipsets. Support for SPI flash on Nvidia chipsets should be working too with current versions. More information is here: Random notes/MCP SPI support
