This can be found on the rear of the motherboard. its a load easier to solder anyway with the board out the box. See picture below to help you locate it, you need to take note of the numbers on it.... It is the large black chip with 4 pins each side.... From what i have tested and read the following chip part numbers all take the same flash file.
