I currently own a Chromebook C213N, and am attempting to manually reset the bios chip.
The chip in question is the 8-pin winbond W25Q128FW and after looking at the datasheet (attached), discovered the reset pin.
I believe I have to short this pin to ground if I am to manually, if messily, reset the chip (could someone confirm this?)
My question is: whilst doing this, should it be turned on, should the battery be connected to the motherboard at all, or should all power be disconnected whilst doing this?
Many thanks!
