    Lenovo M90q Gen 4 Problem Bios crash update

    Hello,

    I have a Lenovo M90Q Gen 4, with Intel 13500.

    Yesterday, the BIOS was updated to the latest version, and for some reason, the process failed. Now, the computer displays nothing on the screen, and approximately 20 seconds after turning on, it immediately shuts down again.

    I tried copying the USB BIOS from Lenovo's website to a FAT32 USB drive and setting the motherboard jumper to CMOS mode (pins 2 and 4), even though the manual indicates maintenance mode, but I haven't found any jumper with that name.

    When I insert the USB drive and set the CMOS mode jumper (pins 2 and 4), the computer turns on, makes no sound, and after 20 seconds, it shuts down again (nothing is displayed on the screen).

    Can anyone help me revive this paperweight?

    Thanks in advance.

      Fixed: Lenovo P14s Gen 1 (type 20Y1, 20Y2) Laptop (ThinkPad) bricked by a withdrawn BIOS update (r1buj82w)
      by akwky
      Hi!
      Went dumpster-diving and found a bricked Lenovo P14S in trash, few weeks earlier. Symptoms - no screen, no POST, no beep, just keyboard LEDs flashing on powerup. Mute button+LED was responding though, and the display self-test was still working (via the key combo Ctrl+Fn+Power held for some seconds, see the Service manual).

      Incidentally, Windows 11 have recently started auto-flashing computer BIOS in our region. Even more suspiciously, Lenovo has released a BIOS update just few days before the PC was trashed. About a week later, the BIOS update image has been oficially marked...

      Corrupted/Interrupted Bios Update Lenovo Legion S7 15ACH6
      by Thomas Dunlap
      Hello,

      I have a Lenovo Legion S7 15ACH6 that was interrupted during a BIOS update and is now bricked. Symptoms: fans spin, RGB keyboard lights up, but no display/POST.

      The BIOS chip is a Gigadevice GD25LR128. I’m using a CH341A with a 1.8 V adapter. In AsProgrammer I selected GD25Q128 (since GD25LR128 isn’t listed) and successfully made a dump (BiosDump2_pf3eg12j.rar).

      My understanding is that I’ll need a known good BIOS dump for this exact model, ideally matched to my laptop’s serial number (PF3EG12J), and that the Windows license key/serial should also...

      Need Clean BIOS/EC Bin File for Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 11e - Stuck with 0275 Error CMS

      Hello everyone,

      I am attempting a repair on a Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 11e that is currently stuck at boot with the error: "0275 error CMS" even after setup new bios battery and will not allow me to enter the BIOS/Setup.

      This is a critical issue that I believe requires flashing the BIOS chip directly using a programmer (e.g., CH341A/RT809H), as standard software updates or resets are not possible.

      I have opened the laptop and identified the main BIOS chip...

      Lenovo IdeaPad 3 - Hard Disk not recognized in BIOS
      by mkdj
      Dear all,

      I have recently fixed a Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15 ALC6 that was not booting due to a BIOS issue. After flashing the BIOS, the laptop boots up, but hard disk is not recognized in BIOS. Is says "Hard Disk : Not Installed". I have tried with 2 different drives (one that I know is working on another laptop) but I get the same result. I do not know if disks were recognized before I got the laptop and fix it, but I don't see any reason why not. I can boot on USB though.

      Here the steps I have taken to fix the laptop:
      - downloaded latest BIOS from Lenovo Website...

      Dell 9010 MT BIOS Update Always Fails
      by mikeybass
      Hi, I hope some one has some advice for me. I searched the forums but didn't see anything relevant. I acquired two identical Dell 9010 Mid Tower computers from a business office upgrade (they were going to throw them out). Both of them have the same motherboard (00F82W). One of them works flawlessly. The other one had a corrupted BIOS. I tried flashing numerous main BIOS and EC files from the internet, but none of them worked. I decided to copy the main BIOS and EC from the working 9010 computer and successfully flashed the corrupted BIOS. This got the computer able to boot again and run norm...
