After my adventures when trying to get a nearly perfect Retro SFF computer, I bricked my nice IBM thinclient (More details here Cs4235 to cs4237b transplant possible?)
The problem is I made my dump using uniflash and I don't know if my dump is ok, as reflashing it doesn't make it come alive. If anyone understands how this "firmware" is or better, has or can dump their eeprom it would be great!
There is a few dumps of the firmware for those thin clients, including some 512k archives that contain firmware that has the bios but not sure if its what should be dumped, as flashing it didn't work.
BTW I removed the original eeprom that was soldered on board and installed it in a socket for convenience, as now I have a tl866 programmer.. (could it be a problem with the socket?)

Thanks a lot
