Hi to all, I hope someone can shed some light on a laptop issue I am having. It is a Lenovo Ideapad 100-151BD. It came in as "no display". Removed and re programmed Bios chip. Laptop now does power on, but take a few minutes to display anything. Once booted it works perfectly. Battery is charging as normal. Speed is good for what it is...I even managed to update the bios with the latest from Lenovo. Still issue persists. Any ideas?

Hello Gecko-EC. Try to flash clean ME BIOS dump. Download and extract it from official site support. Maybe problem with SoC or some other peripheries IC on board, lan, card-reader, codec. What chassis? I would check the USB date line.Last edited by shmyzdrek; 02-17-2024, 04:09 PM. -
Checked BIOS battery. 3.2v. Lan, WIFI all USB working correctly. It is only on the startup that there is a delay. After boot takes place it is perfect. Successfully installed Windows and all drivers. Once booted everything is perfect... It almost seems as though something needs to heat up before progressing...

What dump did you flash into the BIOS chip? Is it clean BIOS? What about DMI information? What name of board (chassis)? Need more information for solution issue 🤷♂️Removed and re programmed Bios chip.Comment

Late display is 'coz of dirty me region. If you dont know how to extract bios from update file.then post a request in the bios subforum for a clean me bios.Remember to upload your existing bios. No point troubleshooting lan,card reader etc at this stage.Comment
