Hi folks,
My son clicked “Update and Shutdown” on a Razer Blade 14 (2022, RZ09-0427), closed the lid, disconnected the charger, and put the laptop in his backpack. The next day, it wouldn’t boot: only the green LED blinked, no fans, no keyboard backlight, no display. The chassis does get warm, so the CPU/GPU seems to get power.
What I’ve tried so far: disconnecting the main battery, CMOS reset with power drain (30s), using a different power adapter, and connecting to the monitor - same result.
I assumed that Windows Update was interrupted due to closing...

Hello all,
I am looking into flashing the BIOS on Dell Windows laptops.
The customers want these to boot to the dialog box that prompts the user to enter the Service Tag. On a new device, this would happen on the first boot.
On older models, we could use a hex editor to blank out the old service tag and this would work. But modern Dell laptops do not allow this.
We have BIOS from brand new boards, that we thought we could overwrite old BIOS with this fresh copy but that doesn't seem to work.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.... -

This motherboard has 2 similar chips. One is on the front marked with BIOS SKT "Winbond 25Q256JVEN" and one on the back marked with U351 "Gigadevice 25B256EYIG". I ignored the one on the back and only desoldered front chip. Made a backup, made sure the reading was the same with another 3 backups.

Hello Everyone,
I have a Lenovo Slim 7i 14IMH9 that got stuck in a boot loop with black screen after a failed BIOS update through Lenovo Vantage.
Here are my laptop details:

Hi, would you be so kind as to help me get my laptop working again? I accidentally deleted the original BIOS from my laptop. I’ve tried flashing a BIOS from another laptop that’s exactly the same model and everything (obviously not the serial number), but it doesn’t work, and the BIOS files available online don’t work either. The laptop stays on without displaying anything on the screen, with all the LEDs at the bottom lit up— with LEDs 1, 3, and 4 orange and LED 2 white, and the fan spinning at full speed. It stays like that indefinitely until I turn it off. I’m getting a bit desperate,...
