BIOS for ThinkCentre M910 Tiny

[amgat]

I need a BIOS dump for ThinkCentre M910 Tiny.

The BIOS chip is : Winbond 25Q128JV
Board : IQ2X0IH ver 1.0

I was using a chip clip with my xgecu pro which led to a corrupt BIOS dump, and the BIOS chip was since re-flashed with the donor BIOS from this thread:
https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...nkcentre-m910q

This donor BIOS is not working in my system (because I have board ver 1.0?). It could be an entire other reason of course.
The symptom is that the board is power cycling every 2-3 seconds and there's no display.

Any help is greatly appreciated

Post your original bios backup and the PC serial number, and we`ll see if we can help.

This is the corrupt dump. I tried running it through UEFITool and it came up as corrupt. Don't know if you're able to retrieve anything.
Serial number is : PC0NAZVU

Tnx for looking

Hope it works for your device.

Thanx. Flashed the BIOS chip and re-seated the chip on the board. The PC is no longer power cycling - it's steady on.
The fan is spinning, and the power LED is constant on. But there is no picture on the screen (tested both HDMI and DP).
It seems that the CPU is heating up a little bit, but there is no power going through the coils around the CPU, so not sure what's going on there.

Also, the USB ports are not powered (tried connecting a keyboard to see if the caps lock is lighting up which it does not).

I've checked the CPU socket for bent pins. Originally there was one pin that looked lite it was touching another pin which I bent back into position. Don't know if that might have damaged the CPU, but I have placed an order for a new CPU for testing.
Not sure what the symptoms for a dead CPU of this type might be

Any other suggestions are highly welcome

I left the computer on without connecting the cooling fan, and the CPU was heating up to a point where it did a thermal shutdown. That tells me that the CPU is actually working right?
By the way hoaca388, did you generate a new UEFI bios using the latest BIOS version from Lenovo?

Yes, but i can't clear Me , maybe this is the reason.

Can you use the Me data from this BIOS dump? Or create a new BIOS based on this dump?
This is the BIOS dump from the first post I mentioned. Although i'm not sure if this is the correct BIOS for my system, it might be worth a shot.
