Are you sure it's SPI?

No EEPROM/flash device found. If you know which flash chip you have, and if this version of flashrom supports a similar flash chip, you can try to force read your chip. Run: flashrom -f -r -c similar_supported_flash_chip filename
Note: flashrom can never write when the flash chip isn't found automatically.
The above note is sadly not a joke.

AFAIK, flashrom is broken for most ICHx.
Not so, it works very well on a whole bunch of them.

Your flash chip is not supported. I'll add code for it.
Some info Carl-Daniel didn't post, maybe it is informative;
It seems that the system has a Winbond W25B40 or W25B40A flash chip. This is an SPI flash chip, but it seems to behave just like a FWH type chip.
While waiting for Carl-Daniel you can try the attached patch. I doubt it will work but you never know.
