Product: HP Compaq 8300 Elite SFF
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

The BIOS of my HP 8300 Elite SFF appears to be dead. Since nothing I've tried revived my motherboard I want to try flashing the BIOS chip using a programmer. However I can't discover the BIOS chip.

 

What is the location of the BIOS chip on the motherboard or how does it look like?

Depending on the NB ,manual there should be a layout plan, which shows the position of your Bios-Chip. 

Also one cam see the make of the System Board
