Hey everyone,
I’m trying to recover a dead BIOS chip after flashing the wrong image using awdflash.exe.
The chip markings are:
H.T M11614T C9706

ChatGPT suggested this is likely a Macronix MX29F010 / MX29F010B clone, 128 KB × 8, 5 V parallel flash in a DIP-32 package.
I bought a programmer and using XGPro v13.04 software (T48 / TL866-3G)
IC type tried in XGPro:
AT29C010A
W29C010
AM29F010B
MX29F001B (closest Macronix option)
What I’ve Done So Far
Erase reports success (≈15 s) for AM29F010B, W29C010, etc. with Check ID off
Blank check always fails → “Not empty! FLASH ADDR 0x000000 CHIP DATA 0x25”.
Read afterwards still shows data → erase clearly didn’t happen.
Self-diagnostic on the T48 passes (VPP ≈ 12 V OK).
Tried “Erase → Erase again” and “Unprotect before programming” options → no change.
So it looks like the T48 isn’t sending the correct erase sequence for this specific chip (perhaps due to a top-boot or clone command-set mismatch).
What I’m Hoping to Confirm
Is AM29F010B indeed the right device to select in XGPro for this chip?
Has anyone successfully erased or programmed a similar H.T M11614T / MX29F010B chip with the T48?
If not, what’s the easiest drop-in replacement (DIP-32 1 Mbit 5 V Flash) that works reliably with the T48?
would any of these work ?

Any advice, working device-type settings, or confirmation of a compatible replacement would be hugely appreciated.
Thanks!
