I tried to use flashrom on this motherboard (ASUS M3A78-EM) and was told to e-mail the output of flashrom -V to this address. Here it is:

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.

Please send the output of "flashrom -V" to flashrom@flashrom.org to help us finish support for your chipset. Thanks. SPI on this chipset is not supported yet.
NVIDIA MCP SPI support for flashrom has been recently added to flashrom, although writing is currently disabled for safety reasons because of lack of testing, identifying and reading the ROM chip should work with flashrom from svn (at least revision 1113), see http://flashrom.org/Downloads
If your flash chip is not detected or other strange things happen when trying to read the flash chip, we are very interested in hearing back from you.
