Need help with MSI Eclipse Flash!
- Thread starter ^GaMbi
- Start date
ok.. just tried 3.2v on JSPI1 pin 1+2 and directly to flashchip pin 7 (#HOLD), no detection 
tried 1.8v with that same setup: write ok till 0x40000 as always
so? nothing else to do then lift the chip? :S (not sure I can do that)
Edit
1.6v "normal detection"
1.8v "normal detection"
1.72~ volt it says "Not supportet"
and this:
anything?

It is strange that it only detects at that low voltage , The chip seems to be the correct one that is being detected .
Looking at the last screenshot it has given a false detection on the last bit as the JEDEC ID's do not correspond to the known SPI.
On the Setup that you get it to detect with 1.8v. Do you get the same with Build 326 using firmware 3.04 or 3.05?

Seems like this person in this thread has a similar chip to yours and has resolved the issue

I have asked him to detail exactly how he has it connected so it may help you , by the looks of it he has used the ATX power supply to assist in powering the chip.

ok.. I followed he's VERY detailed guide.. but it dosnt work in my case it seams :S
only minor detail is that he uses a 1mm copper wire. Im guessing it wont make a difference how I bridge the two pins.
so Im kinda back to square 1
in he's guide, he gets 2.5v and able to detect after putting board in standby mode
I only get 1.7v witch gives me the same ID as earlier in this thread (flash not supported)
Still only able to get "good" connection at 1.8-1.9v but wont allow me to write (even with pin 7 and 8 shorted)

2,5 Volt is idle-voltage, it climbs up to 3.0V by reading or writing.
Set Blackcat jumper to 3.3 V. Proof your pin-setup!

Hi stefan! thx for the detailed description!
I measured over 4 and 8
Did you read the rest of this thread?
it detects the chip with 1.8-1.9v (BCUSB at 5V setting or 1.8-1.9V from external PSU)
with 1.7 (witch I get from BCUSB 3.3v + mainboard in standby mode) it detects, but wrong ID
If I feed 3.3 or 2.5 from external PSU, no detection
there are plenty of pics in the posts before
and since it is able to detect, it must be set up the right way, yes?

Ill try.. but isn't that just.. umm?
Id have to:
1: pull out ATX
2: connect BCUSB over 5v to get connection
3: put back ATX and power on the board (wich I would loose my connection by doing?)
4: try and write the rom
?
Edit:
Ok..
didnt work
If I write with this setup (with the ATX and POWER ON BOARD): it just freezes
If I write with this setup (WITHOUT the ATX and POWER ON BOARD): It writes till 0x40000 and mismatch
Edit2:
if I connect as "normal" and power on the board and try to detect again,, connection is lost ..
