#1 Replacing the APU chip and BIOS ME-region

******************************************
Server brand: QNAP
Model: NAS TS-251+
Motherboard: QW41, Rev.: 1.4

APU chip: Intel Celeron J1900 (SR1UT)
BIOS chip: Winbond W25Q64FW

Hello!

I'm working on the mentioned server.
It is bad APU chip (main processor).

Question:
My question is, if it is necessary to clean the BIOS ME-region after replacement the APU chip?
If yes, is it good chances to do that on server BIOS?

I don't have much experience with the server repairs, and I don't want to order the new APU chip, if than turns out that it is bad chances to clan the BIOS ME-region, if it is necessary.

In this case, it is more about the TXE Region, although the "repair" procedure is the same as in the case of the ME Region.

Hello after a long time; I forgot to release the results :oops: :frusty:

After replacing the APU hybrid, the machine worked smoothly.

I was able to locate the TXE region in BIOS, but it turned out that it was no necessary to clean it.

Thanks @dominik555 for your help!
