    HP Folio 1040 G1 corrupted bios - new bios flash, unable to update DMI

    Hello all,

    I'm facing a strange issue, I do have my old bios where i can find some information about the laptop SN, build and so on for the DMI encoding.

    I did flash a new bios on the laptop and i have tried all the tools found everywhere on this forum and other forums but i'm unable to update all DMI info in the BIOS. I still get an error saying "Warning: Machine is not in committed state".

    Could somebody guide me on this or maybe help? I'm really hoping to find a way out of this bios thing...

    See attached old bios (corrupted for some parts in it. I did replace the chip as it was bad) and new one.

    Thanks a lot!

                      Update bios EFCN58WW to EFCN59WW
                      by al3m0di
                      Update bios EFCN58WW to EFCN59WW for solving The Connected AC adapter has a lower wattage than the recommended AC adapter




                      I have a Lenovo Legion 5 15imh05a device that I bought used online. It came with a 20V 8.5A 170W charger.

                      The BIOS version is EFCN58WW.

                      When I turn on the device, it displays the message:
                      "The Connected AC adapter has a lower wattage than the recommended AC adapter..."

                      The device rarely charges the battery, and even when it does, it doesn't show that it's charging.

                      I've tried
