      Hi forum

      lenovo thinkpad X1 yoga, 4th gen- SN PF25B69C
      mainboard fx490 nm-b861

      I purchased my old work laptop, but it came locked with SUP password which wasn't really a problem until now. I decided to have a go removing it using the autopatch but subsequently find out 32mb BIOS doesn't work and the laptop died. I created 2 images of the old BIOS which were hash checked and tried to put 1 back after failing with the patch file , but I end up with a verification error whilst programming and the flash fails.

      I have tried to flash some of the X1 BIOS I have found on this site which do flash over but the laptop remains dead- just the orange power light.

      Have I bricked this for good or is there some hope!

      I attach my original BIOS dump

      many thanks for any help

      Just as a follow up, although this has been merged with X1 20QF, I actually need the BIOS for type 20G

              Here. With corporate ME FW, same as your backup. If it boots ok run the bios update from lenovo support to update the EC FW.

                                    by Loki_Fido
                                    Hi everyone, hope everyone's having a great day.

                                    I have a Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Yoga Gen 3 for repair. (20LES3T900)
                                    I looked in every corner and the laptop seems fine. Its pulling 500mA but no display, no noise, nothing.

                                    So I assume its a BIOS issue. I downloaded the BIOS with CH341A and opened it on ME Analyser and didn't receive any errors.
                                    Does this mean the BIOS is fine? making it a hardware issue?

                                    I downloaded fresh BIIOS from the Lenovo site and used Hex Editor replace the Lenovo's BIOS into my BIOS region. But the file size ended up being...

                                    Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 14APU8 Bios Request
                                    by beogeek
                                    I've currently got a Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 14APU8 that is not posting. Its fan spins, the keyboard lights up, and the caps lock doesn't work. It was taken to some shop for cleaning, and then they updated or tried to update the bios. After that, there was no display and no post. I've removed the bios ic from the board and made a bios dump. I need some assistance going forward, as I suspect this is probably just a bad bios issue. I've tried searching for a dump, but no luck; if anyone can throw me a bone, it would be much appreciated!

                                    Attached is the bios dump in the state I received it...
