Hi,
Is there anyway or any program out there that can find the bios chip id from the bios image file? Any help appreciated.

Cheers,

Is that the flash chip type, or the manufacturer BIOS ID ?

For Award BIOSes, MODBIN.EXE will allow you to load the BIN file and see the BIOS ID string and the OEM message.

I don't know of any utility which will allow you to deduce the flash chip type from the BIOS file, although maybe analysing the boot block would give you a clue.
