    Issue wtih [crisis] BIOS recovery

    Hi,

    BIOS update bricked my laptop - after restart the was a prompt to Proceed with ROM flash or Abort. None of 2 options worked - upon restart the same prompt shown.

    I downloaded [BIOS update].exe file from Lenovo Support > extracted [firmware descriptor].fd file > renamed it to [correct crisis file name].bin.

    With crisis file on USB drive the Proceed with ROM option launches recovery - after displaying the current and the new BIOS version, the process terminated immediately with validation error:

    Not allow flash. Boot Guard version verification failed

    I found a similar issue fixed for another Lenovo model a month before my laptop's latest BIOS release date:

    Is there any chance that my corrupted BIOS could be recovered in the crisis mode if the manufacturer fixes the issue in the future BIOS release?

      Bricked Lenovo IdeaPad 3 14ADA05 Need BIOS file for FN+R Crisis recovery
      by pcwhiz24
      Model: Lenovo IdeaPad 3 14ADA05 81W0
      S/N: PF2BZS7D

      I was having issues with this particular laptop where the NVME SSD would disappear and would not detect unless I took it out and reconnected it, then it would detect for only for a minute then disappear from BIOS. I figured updating the BIOS was worth a try so I booted into my HBCD USB and downloaded the latest BIOS file for that exact model. I ran the executable and everything went smooth, it beeped and then when it restarted, now it won't post, just black screen with fan spinning.

      I already have a CH341A programmer...

      Bios Request HP 17-CN0023DX
      by David Gee
      Hello,

      I am currently working on recovering my HP Laptop (Model: 17-cn0023dx) after a BIOS corruption issue. The laptop is stuck in a no-boot state, and the Caps Lock light is blinking with a 3.2 code (3 long, 2 short), which according to HP documentation indicates a BIOS corruption failure.

      I have prepared a USB stick using the HP Cloud Recovery Tool, but I confirmed that it does not include a BIOS recovery image for Crisis Recovery. I also attempted to extract the BIOS file from the spXXXXX BIOS update package provided on the HP Support site, but that update only provides...

      Dynabook Satellite Pro C50D-B-100 - BIOS Issue, Black Screen
      by wizard13
      Hello everyone,

      I am experiencing a BIOS-related issue with my Dynabook Satellite Pro C50D-B-100. When I power on the laptop, the screen stays black, and there is no response from the system. I suspect a corrupted BIOS.

      I have checked the forum and the available documentation but could not find a solution specific to my issue.

      Lenovo IdeaPad 330 15-AST 81D6 BIOS Recovery
      by jendkkd jeje
      So a couple of years ago i got a bios update through Lenovo Vantage, so i installed it and bricked my whole BIOS, so i couldn't fix it so i put that ideapad in a box, 3 years later i found that one PC and want to recover it to switch from a 2014 hp laptop to this one.

      I found a method to recover the BIOS of many lenovo laptops tha consists in pluging in a USB Flash with the BIOS files and power on the laptop with Fn + R keys pressed until fans go loud and start beeping loud, but nothing worked, so i think filename is wrong, i tried naming the bios file as 07WW.BIN, BIOS.BIN, BIOS.fd,...

      Acer Nitro 5 AN515-46 DMI not working
      by aico60
      Hello everyone,

      I am working on an Acer Nitro 5 AN515-46, board HH51R LA-M002P Rev: 1A with an AMD CPU and Insyde Bios rev 5.

      Short issue description: BIOS does not recognize any of the DMI data.

      History of the laptop:
      The seller of the laptop said that it shut down during a BIOS update.
      I bought in in a condition where it turned on but did not post.
      While waiting for my RT809F to arrive, I tried to perform a Crisis recovery, which messed up the EC firmware, so... the laptop stopped even turning on. Power and Charging LEDs didn't work either...
