Thinkpad T15p Gen 3 BIOS cleanup requested

[trepachka]

Hello,

I have this Thinkpad T15p Gen 3 laptop. It starts normally with keyboard lighting up, I can hear the fan starts spinning, amps quickly reach about 1.7A without the battery, CPU gets hot. However, it is not posting.

I suspect the BIOS is corrupted. I am providing 2 BIOS files as I see 2 BIOS 256Mb chips. I am also providing a photo of the chips' location on the motherboard.

Model: Thinkpad T15p Gen 3
S/N: PF-45G6VM
Type: 21DA-000PUS
Motherboard: NM-E221

Thank you.

I just don't get it. I know I attached the backup bios to my original message. Ok, here it is again. Sorry.

It is attached but there`s a cacheing issue with some posts,meaning the attachment doesn`t show up.

I have 2 bios chips. Which one does your file represent?

I reflashed the chip using your file. Computer stopped responding to the power button, acting completely dead. All power rails are present.
