        That isn't a bios chip.

                    Re: Thinkpad L480 Bios repair

                    I hope you can help me, the problem I have is that my L480 computer does not turn on, when using the Lenovo tool the error code 0258 "TCG-compliant functionality-related error" is detected, I read in several forums that flashing the BIOS can help to solve it, but when trying to install the bios for this topic I get a size error, my computer is a Lenovo L480 on the motherboard it is NS-461 and the bios chip is a winbond 25Q80DVSIG (W25Q80DV 3V 8M- BIT)

                        Re: Thinkpad L480 Bios repair

                        Thank you very much for the clarification, do a lot more research to find the correct chip and the equipment now works correctly.

                        Actually mentioning that it was the wrong chip helped me a lot.

                        Greetings

                                    Hi all,

                                    I have a couple of L480 with issues if anyone can help please.

                                    First one has a corrupted BIOS and would not boot. I flashed a working file from a different L480 and it boots but goes off after 10sec.

                                    Second L480 has "0188: Invalid RFID Serialization Information Area" on boot.

                                    Original BIOS dumps attached (these had passwords but I have now removed them).

                                    Both are 20LT-S4SP00. board NM-B461

                                    SN (bad flash): PF1EPTCK
                                    SN2 (RFID error): PF1H1V7H

                                    Thanks
                                    Chris
