    Bios on HP Probook 470 G5

    Hello guys, I have a tough problem to solve. I'm trying to update the BIOS on my computer, but I've completely forgotten the password I set. Is there a working software method for this model, or is hardware the only possible way?
    Thank you in advance for any help you can give me!

          Hi!

          I have a Probook 470 G5, which does not POST.
          It powers on, screen stays blank, fan slowly ramps up to high speed.
          Tested different RAM, did a CMOS reset, no change.
          Suspecting corrupted BIOS.

          Could somebody please to fix my BIOS?

          Attached is my dump.

          Thanks in advance!

                  Scheiße!

                  Well, in that case: Thank you very much for taking the time to fix my BIOS.
                  It works!

                  And I did not even had to re-enter any of the DMI data - everything just works.

                  Great stuff - thanks again and have a good evening!

                      Great, you're welcome.
                      P.S. I transferred your DMI data from the damaged dump.

                          Bricked HP Probook 450 G7 Bios questions
                          by studdy05
                          Hp Probook 450 G7 s# SCD0348W35 had a locked BIOS. Bought BIOS and EC chips off Ebay that were supposed to match this machine - the 450 G7. Flashed in the BIOS on chip i bought using a CH341. BIOS unlocked next boot. Some error to contact HP. Entered BIOS and reset to system defaults and rebooted. Machine worked fine but every cold boot the contact HP message popped and everything else worked as fine. Assumed the error was from EC chip not matching BIOS that i just flashed in. So i flashed in the EC that was supposed to match from the EBay chip i bought and instant brick.

                          Ive got...

                          Dell 9010 MT BIOS Update Always Fails
                          by mikeybass
                          Hi, I hope some one has some advice for me. I searched the forums but didn't see anything relevant. I acquired two identical Dell 9010 Mid Tower computers from a business office upgrade (they were going to throw them out). Both of them have the same motherboard (00F82W). One of them works flawlessly. The other one had a corrupted BIOS. I tried flashing numerous main BIOS and EC files from the internet, but none of them worked. I decided to copy the main BIOS and EC from the working 9010 computer and successfully flashed the corrupted BIOS. This got the computer able to boot again and run norm...

                          Fixed: Lenovo P14s Gen 1 (type 20Y1, 20Y2) Laptop (ThinkPad) bricked by a withdrawn BIOS update (r1buj82w)

                          Hi!
                          Went dumpster-diving and found a bricked Lenovo P14S in trash, few weeks earlier. Symptoms - no screen, no POST, no beep, just keyboard LEDs flashing on powerup. Mute button+LED was responding though, and the display self-test was still working (via the key combo Ctrl+Fn+Power held for some seconds, see the Service manual).

                          Incidentally, Windows 11 have recently started auto-flashing computer BIOS in our region. Even more suspiciously, Lenovo has released a BIOS update just few days before the PC was trashed. About a week later, the BIOS update image has been oficially marked...

                          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

                          by trix11
                          I have a Dell Precision T1650 MT workstation (of the following spec.) that was bricked yesterday when attempting to update the BIOS from A27 to A28 per:
                          - https://www.dell.com/support/home/en...-t1650/drivers > Dell Precision T1650 System BIOS

                          - Dell Precision T1650 mid tower Workstation
                          - Xeon E3-1225 V2
                          - 32Gb PC3-12800E RAM
                          - 4Tb SATA HDD
                          - motherboard: Dell part: 0C3YXR CN-0C3YXR-72200-39C-01GR-A02

                          I see now that others have experienced like issues e.g.:
