Motherboards can be tricky to work with. It may be best to remove/disconnect all devices before attempting to read or write the flash ROM. This includes GPU, NVMe SSDs, DRAM modules. Fans should be disconnected from the fan headers (but no need to remove the fans themselves).Thanks for the input!
OK, so I have to get a CH341A programmer. I was researching in other forums to see if someone with the same motherboard had done it previously, but I guess I would be the first!
Of course you may try first without disconnecting or removing these components. But if the CH341a cannot find and read the chip after multiple attempts, then it would be necessary to remove/disconnect all components.
