    Lenovo laptop board no External Display in BIOS

    Hi,

    Need a little help with this one. I have one board that I need to use for a project, no complete laptop, board only. Board model is LA-A321p, from a Lenovo M30-70.

    After Windows boots, works fine, everything ok, but I can't seem to be able to get image in the HDMI before booting to Windows. I need to access the BIOS and I don't have an internal display.

    I have a friend with a complete, same model, laptop and I have tried accessing BIOS hidden Advanced Setting and changed the Primary Display options and nothing works (IGFX, PEG, PCI and SG).

    Also, this board doesn't have a dedicated GPU, could that be a problem?

    What can I do to try and have this working? I have a BIOS Programmer (EZP2019+) if that helps

    Thanks

    Does your model has a recovery button near power switch or on the sides of usb port?? If yes,try switching on with recovery button.

          Lenovo laptop does not turn on, what does this number mean in a BIOS chip?
          by thxd43
          Hello, first of all, excuse me, I am using the translator, English is not my native language.

          I have a Lenovo ideapad 330S - 14IKB laptop.



          The tablet did not recognize me when I connected it, so I checked the device manager and I realized that there were many with the exclamation mark, so one by one I began to update their drivers until the sign disappeared of admiration, I even updated the BIOS, and the laptop rebooted normally and worked, so far so good, but the tablet still did not recognize me, I read on the internet that it could be due to a...

          Fixed: Lenovo P14s Gen 1 (type 20Y1, 20Y2) Laptop (ThinkPad) bricked by a withdrawn BIOS update (r1buj82w)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...

          MSI PRO B660M-G DDR4 - real bios dump from board needed (no stock bios)
          by DynaxSC
          Hi, I have an MSI PRO B660M-G DDR4 board with damaged BIOS and i need a bios dump from a real board, along with MAC, UUID and Serial Number info (eg. a BIOS screenshot and pictures from the board stickers).

          I need to reconstruct the bios on my board, based on another bios image form a real board - meaning a bios image containing MAC address, UUID and Serial number. A stock BIOS is not suffiecient, as it is impossible to discover where the MAC, UUID and SerialNumber are stored. Tried with a similar board, but there are too much differences, and the stock BIOS is missing a lot of...

          Lenovo Legion T5-26AMR5 Desktop - Corrupt BIOS
          by grimacelord
          Hello there.

          I am working on a Lenovo Legion T5-26AMR5 desktop that currently has a corrupt BIOS and I have been unsuccessful thus far in trying to fix it myself.

          History:

          1. This computer came to me initially with an error message that said "BiInitializeLibrary failed 0xc0000001" or "0135 fan error". It would always be one of the two errors. It should be noted that when it produced the fan error, there was no physical problem with the fans. They were all spinning just fine.

          I searched for this error online and discovered...

          Lenovo X240 - motherboard replacement for X250, no image.
          by andrhouseolly
          Friends. I beg you to help me in this situation.
          Lenovo X240 with a video problem. Native Intel drivers are not installed,
          after installation, a black screen. It works with the standard Microsoft driver.
          Understanding that there are problems with the video core,
          I ordered a motherboard from Lenovo X250.
          The laptop turns on, starts up, there is no image on the internal display.
          The image is output to the external monitor.
          I ordered another motherboard from Lenovo X250.
          The laptop turns on, starts up, there is no image on the internal display.
