How do you remove a BIOS chip?

Removal: Use a professional tool like the DIL-Extractor. If you don’t have one, you can try it with one or two short and small screwdrivers. Pull the screwdrivers into the gaps between socket and chip, and pull him carefully out. Be careful while removing the chip!

What happens if I remove BIOS chip?

To clarify….in a laptop, if powered ON… everything starts… the fan, LEDs will light up and it will start to POST/boot from a bootable media. If bios chip is removed these would not happen or it would not go into POST.
