You can just pull of the chip and put the new one in.

That is the bios chip. I'd recommend an IC puller as opposed to simply trying to pry it out. You could damage the socket. 

Thanks for you advise and help. I'll look into the IC puller as well. :)

Hello all, in my last cry for help i posted an issue with my bios, i have finally got round to fixing it,

I am just looking for some advise on how to change the chip.

I have got the motherboard manual and i think i have located the chip.(see attached file) Is that the bios chip?

 

I have gone onto ebay and have located a chip that should work, i want to know if that would work.(see attached file)

Thanks for the help, very appreciated.
