    T560 bios needed!

    Hi there, a corrupted BIOS image of my lenovo T560.

    I am able to do a dump.
    But how can I obtain a valid BIOS image for this machine?

    I just wanted to change the wificard since then it doesn't boot no longer.

    There is just the post screen then it goes to a boot loop.
    I also have a dump from another board, so can I just replace the BIOS chip?

    No passwords are set.

    Thanks in advance!

          The wifi card will be whitelisted. Put the old card back in and see if it boots back up.Modding the bios or changing the card for a lenovo FRU approved card is the only way around it.Swapping the bios chip will not work

              Asus ROG Ally X -RC72LA - changed hidden bios settings with 'Smokeless-UMAF', won't get past boot logo
              by throwaway327
              ASUS ROG Ally X - (Handheld Gaming PC)
              Model No: RC72LA
              Serial No: SBNVKD001014459

              Hi all, I've spent the past week digging through the forums and guides to try correct my foolish mistake of changing hidden settings while tinkering around, and to be honest my heads overloaded so I'm hoping you'll be able to help.

              I used a tool called 'Smokeless-UMAF' to access usually hidden settings in the bios. I tweaked one or two 'safe' things but made the mistake of tweaking a lot of settings under 'USB/Thunderbolt Configurations' when I didn't know what they did. For...

              Lenovo T480s, what's up with this Bios, modded boot logo, reflashed now bricked

              Lenovo T480s
              Model 20L8-S3TE00

              Chip MX25L12873F

              Hi, I have a few of these & they came with a custom bios boot logo, no passwords etc.

              2 x were brand new unused but with custom boot logo, 1 I installed Windows/ran updates then it bricked itself. 1 wouldn't get past the custom bios boot logo.

              The third I loaded windows, took a backup of the bios chip, then tried to flash several different clean bios's via programmer which all caused it to not boot. I tried to reflash the original bios both using clip & desoldering but...

              Bios partially corrupted somehow and now warm boot doesn't work which is critical
              by Neddsme
              Hie.
              I own a Lenovo ideapad v310-15IKB with an i5 7th generation with only Intel graphics configuration.
              Now the heart of the problem is that I don't know when or how it happened but I suddenly started getting distortion in the graphics output on the LCD. This basically meant a black screen full of flickering multicolored short horizontal lines. This would happen 30-60 minutes after booting and using it normally.
              I run Windows 10 20H build so I thought it was just a Windows update issue or graphics driver outdated issue.
              I managed to run Windows troubleshooting and...

              Lenovo LOQ mdl 151RH8 bios Q: Can't get usb boot to list
              by Max029
              I've searched and read Beginners guidelines and other sticky threads. This is just a simple bios question. If I may, I'm having trouble finding any help, including from lenovo tech support & forum, for how to get usb boot to list in boot options. I'm trying to run memtest86 so nothing as highfaluting as re-install, flash a bios, etc.

              I've made usb boot enabled and secure boot is disabled. I can find no other option in bios ver LZCN34WW (the original bios). Would anyone here be familiar with LOQ or Legion bios versions & know what is going on?


              TY,

              MSI PRO B660M-G DDR4 - real bios dump from board needed (no stock bios)
              by DynaxSC
              Hi, I have an MSI PRO B660M-G DDR4 board with damaged BIOS and i need a bios dump from a real board, along with MAC, UUID and Serial Number info (eg. a BIOS screenshot and pictures from the board stickers).

              I need to reconstruct the bios on my board, based on another bios image form a real board - meaning a bios image containing MAC address, UUID and Serial number. A stock BIOS is not suffiecient, as it is impossible to discover where the MAC, UUID and SerialNumber are stored. Tried with a similar board, but there are too much differences, and the stock BIOS is missing a lot of...
