    Lenovo TD350 ThinkServer BIOS v505 Corrupted BIOS,

    Hello, the bios on my Lenovo TD350 ThinkServer got corrupted during a bios update, the bios restore function killed the Server.
    I need to flash the bios inside the MX25L12835F SOP8, i have already desolder the chip and solder it into my SOP8 adapter and read it with a ROM programmer.
    I use the innoextract 1.9 software to extract the bios file from the .exe file that i download from lenovo website, can you help me edit the Hex file (removing the Index part and resize the file)?

    This guy claim to have done it https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/ThinkSe...up/m-p/5123818 but he did not mention the bios file modification.
    I have also attached the "corrupted" 1.5 bios version rom that i backup to compare it.

    Thank You

      I was able to revive the server by removing this parts of the file, (see the attachments), flashing it to the ROM and Re-soldering it to the Motherboard.
      Now the Server works and it's updated to the last BIOS version!
      The dimension of the file should be exactly 16384KB.

        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 ThinkPad P16s Gen1 BIOS File corrupted!
        by Markus1741
        Serial Number: PF42HXCM

        Board Number: NM-D882

        P16s Gen 1 (Type 21BT, 21BU) Laptop (ThinkPad) - Type 21BT

        Hello, I have a Lenovo ThinkPad P16s Gen1 with a likely corrupted BIOS.

        As soon as the power adapter is plugged in, the fan runs at full speed, but nothing else happens. When I search for the original BIOS version with UVPD, I get N3BET61W, but this exact version has been withdrawn by Lenovo.

        Unfortunately, I can't find any other original BIOS for this model.

        I've already tried creating a new BIOS from version 1.40,...

        Lenovo ThinkStation P520 BIOS file needed
        by Forest79
        Hello,

        I got a Lenovo ThinkStation P520 (Type 30BF) from a friend, asking me for a repair. Windows 11 offered a firmware upgrade as an optional update, and it failed.
        The emergency flash procedure from the hardware manual has also failed. So, I asked an acquaintance with better skills to flash the BIOS directly.

        However, the chip (a Macronix MX25L25673GMI-08G) has a size of 32 MB, and the BIOS file from the Lenovo website (extracted with UEFITool) has a little more than 16 MB. Thus, the software my acquaintance used (SiberiaProg v1.45, with a CH341A Programmer)...

        Lenovo ThinkBook 13s Gen 3 ACN – Need Help Fixing Corrupted BIOS (W74M12JW)
        by HumanDev228
        Hello everyone,
        I’m working on a Lenovo ThinkBook 13s Gen 3 ACN (AMD Ryzen 5 5600U) with a Winbond W74M12JW 16MB BIOS chip

        Symptoms:
        • No display, fan spins, white LED blinking
        • Temporary boot after flashing another BIOS
        • Dies again after reboot
        • Current BIOS dump appears corrupted (mostly FF-filled, no valid UEFI structure)

        What I already tried:
        • External flash with CH341A + proper 1.8V supply
        • Flashed GMCN33WW-031F.bin (booted once, then failed again)
        • Reflashed original dump → same issue
        • Power reset, battery disconnect
        • RAM reflow attempt (no change)

        ...
