Fujitsu E754 EC bios update killed pc
« on: August 13, 2023, 05:44:31 pm »
I have been looking for workking bios and ec file.
https://aijaa.com/Xe3fQ7
Board is CP620570 , CP642134-X3
https://aijaa.com/dBYLwb

I removed both eeprom chips and read data.
25Q32
25Q80
Bios file size is 4mb and ec is 1mb
Bios file was readable but ec was blank.

I have tryed all files found from net but no luck.

Have anyone backup files?

Is this the update?

EC Firmware Update for LIFEBOOK E7x4 vPro:
https://support.ts.fujitsu.com/indexdownload.asp?Softwareguid=1f74b5ad-5303-45ae-b310-abff9b23cad2

If so, I was able to extract a file named 4C46D217.EC1 from the .exe by using 7Zip. This looks like it might be the EC image you are looking for. I don't know if there are any reserved, unique regions, but it would be worth a try.

Hi.
I really dont know, laptop was dead when i get it for free.

Thank you for the links, i havent found those from Fujitsu page.

I downloaded both your linked files and cheked that EC1 file.
It is a bit smaller file size vs. what i found from web.

I have to flash that to eeprom and test.

I found this, but the EC file looks nothing like the update:

The EC1 file appears to be an update for the East Chip microcontroller, whatever that is.

Yep.
That is different model with 8mb bios.

I have tested that and dead as rock.

EC update is something to do with battery charging controller.

I think bios files can fit from E735,E745 and E755 laptops.

That bios+ec not helped.
I bought E754 motherboard from ebay and received it yesterday.
Installed it and computer boots now, but black screen.
External display picture is ok.

Fuse near to display connector is fine.
