      the drive is safe under there.
      and you guessed correct about the debugging spray.usually just to shoot down wasps but an occasional buggy pc comes in too.i sometimes have to kill all their pets so we dont have to adopt them

        Thinkpad T490 doesn't detect NVME
        by pandrew
        I have a Thinkpad T490 (NM-B901 Rev 1.0) that cannot detect an NVME M.2 SSD,
        but it works fine with a SATA M.2 SSD.

        When connecting an NVME M.2 SSD I get while booting:
        "2101: Detection error on HDD0 (Main HDD)"

        I can continue and boot a live linux distro from a USB stick, but it doesn't show up in lspci,
        and I don't notice any relevant error messages in dmesg.

        I have tried two different M.2 NVME SSDs (both working fine on a different machine),
        and the behavior is the same.

        I am pretty sure that all the important...

        by mr.malcom
        Hello,

        this is a very strange Problem:

        Notebook hang instantly on Boot. BIOS is accesable.
        Windows: instant after showing "loading circle", even Windows Boot Stick hang instant (even without installed SSD/NVME )
        Linux: instantly (if Linux Boot in leagacy Mode with log messages: Machine Check exception after 0.25 sec)

        i have tried:
        - only one RAM Stick, another working RAM, both RAM channel
        - BIOS Flash to newest Version F.50, BIOS Reset
        - Memtest86 hang instant at Test 2
        - HP UEFI Diagnostic wont find...

        Requests to Intel Flash Programming Tool for Linux Ubuntu x86_64
        by tsavpyn
        Dear all,
        I forgot my BIOS password of my Surface Pro 3, I searched for solutions for a long time and knew that by using FPT to dump my bios to bin file and using decryptor, I can get my BIOS password.
        Now I have a problem that I am unable to dump my BIOS into bin file.

        My Surface Pro 3 currently runs on Ubuntu 22.04, with Secure Boot enabled and Boot From SSD Only.

        I searched for FPT but there is no Linux version and none of them work.
        I hereby request a copy of Intel Flash Programming Tool for Linux x64.
        I would really appreciate it if anyone...

        MS Surface Book 3 - Keyboard works only in UEFI/Linux
        by survivalbloke
        This is a very weird issue which I'm having trouble finding a common thread.

        The keyboard is registering keypresses in either the UEFI, or a live Linux USB environment - I used Ubuntu for testing. The keyboard backlight is lit.

        The keyboard is registering keypresses in Windows or any Windows-related bootable device. For example, it does not work in Hirens Recue or a Windows 11 bootable installer.

        When booted to Windows, not only is the keyboard not registering keypresses, but my USB keyboard is not either!

        USB mouse and integrated trackpad...
