    Lenovo V310-15IKB weird bios problem...

    Lenovo V310-15IKB Type 80T3 laptop, i7 7th cpu with dedicated Ati video
    sn LR09493E
    MB DAOLV6MB6F0 REV. F

    The laptop was working fine, the only problem was that when I turned it on, the screen was hard to turn on, it would wait for about 30-40 seconds before an image appeared on the screen.
    Initially, I updated from windows to Intel Management Engine 11.8 Firmware, restarted, everything was fine.
    Then I updated the bios, also from windows, to the last vs, vs 46. It restarted, those lines with bios update progress appeared, restarted and that's it, since then I haven't been able to get it to show an image on the screen.
    It starts normally when I press the power button, waits a few seconds, restarts, then waits about 20 seconds again and then the fan starts and that's it. Capslock does not light up the LED when pressed and it does not give any error code through the LEDs.

    I wrote 3 bios from here that others said worked for them, but not for me.
    I even edited the DMI on one of them, it's somewhere between 820000 and 822020, to no avail (I think I read a comment that someone didn't start it until they wrote the original SN, it probably wasn't the same as the one in ITE)

    I wrote a bios, the same way, declared that it would definitely work on the v310 with dedicated video, and I also wrote the EC, through the keyboard jack, to no avail, the same behavior.
    That EC has an IT8886HE.
    Unfortunately, I looked at the ssd and it didn't automatically back up the bios, or it deleted it... I seem to remember it had vs 26.
    I saved the bios, but it's the defective one. I also saved the ec.

    Do you have any ideas, please, thank you.
    I attach bios+ec, versions after windows updates.

          🛠️ MSI GP75 Leopard MS-17E71 – No Display, Deep BIOS/EC Troubleshooting
          by macabook
          Hello everyone,

          I’m currently working on a dead MSI GP75 Leopard (MS-17E71) motherboard (i7 CPU, NVIDIA GPU) with a no display/no backlight issue initially. After extensive investigation, I’m at a critical stage involving EC firmware, BIOS/ME region interaction, and possible deep corruption. I'm seeking advanced insight from anyone with experience in EC/BIOS sync issues or PCH-level behavior. Here’s a full breakdown:
          🧩 Initial Issue
          • Board powers on (fans spin, keyboard lights up and can be adjusted, caps lock led lights), but no display or backlight
          • External display (HDMI) shows
          ...

          ASUS TP500LA BIOS request/repair/merge?
          by jbonavita
          Hi, my laptop wont boot at all
          With original bios no POST, only LED lights
          With alternative BIOS from model TP500LN (flashed via programmer) the notebook works again
          Some issues
          A- with bios from 500LN, it won't update from bios of model 500LA (from 500LN v203 to 500LA v300)
          B- If updated from 500LN version 203 to 300, the battery stops being recognized

          Things I tried

          1- Update / clear ME: Took the non working bios, made a backup, and did this: https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...theory/trouble...

          [REQUEST] Dell G3 3579 BIOS Password & AMI Protected Range/BIOS Guard Unlock
          by zenius
          Hello, I have an old Dell G3 3579 (ST: 2WQ7LP2-8FC8) with a newer 8FC8 BIOS password. I have successfully attached to the flash chip (W25Q128JVSQ) on the motherboard with a CH341A programmer and made several modifications using Intel FIT (e.g., allow software SPI write) without bricking. I was also able to boot to a modified GRUB shell where I attempted to edit many BIOS security related options like BIOS Guard/Lock, Flash Signature Override, ME FW Image Re-Flash, etc.

          Unfortunately, some of these modifications like to Intel BIOS Guard failed because it is fused into the PCH. Also,...

          Lenovo Thinkbook 15 G2 ITL i5 (serial number: MP2BFZEF) bios request
          by Wahaz
          Hello,

          I have a Lenovo Thinkbook 15 G2 ITL i5 Laptop (serial number: MP2BFZEF) that when I turn it on, the led on the power button lights up for 5 seconds, then goes out. There's no display and nothing happens.
          So I thought it was a Bios problem.
          I found 3 bios chips on the board, which I read with a bios programmer: two XMC model bios chips and a Winbond model bios chip. Each XMC model bios chip has two partitions named XM25QH128A [3.3V] and XT25F128A [3.3V]. And the Winbond model bios chip has three partitions named W25Q80BL 3.3V, W25Q80xV 3.3V and W25Q80DV 3.3V....
