I get this result:
# LinuxBIOSv2/util/flashrom/flashrom 
Calibrating delay loop... ok
No LinuxBIOS table found.
Enabling flash write on NVIDIA C51...OK
W39V040B found at physical address: 0xfff80000
Flash part is W39V040B
OK, only ENABLING flash write, but NOT FLASHING.

There is one small problem: I depend on this board very much since my laptop is in repair. So I can't test whether writing would work. The only difference between W39V040B (new) and W39V040A (supported) ist that W39V040B is a LPC chip instead of FWH. I don't know whether that matters for flashing.

Carl-Daniel
