You cannot replace the BIOS chip. It is tied to other things on the board. You would not be able to boot and you would get 4 sets of 4 beeps. (security chip error). You might try unplugging the machine, removing the battery and pressing the power button 10 times. Hold the button for 5 seconds the last time you press it. What is the character tupe (like 7663-w22)?
