    Inspiron 14 5430 Bios requested

    Hello, I have this Inspiron 14 5430 that refuses to start. Computer charges and reacts to pushing of the power button by lighting up the keyboard. It blinks twice rapidly, then after about a 5 sec pause, repeats the same keyboard blinking pattern again.

    I checked and all voltages are present including PCH and CPU. Indeed, the CPU warms up pretty quickly. But the computer does not post.

    I suspect this could be either BIOS or EC issue. At this point I would like to see if reflashing BIOS will solve the problem.

    Could someone, please take a look at provide rebuilt BIOS file? Thanks

    I am including the original BIOS file.

        There isn't much printed on it. Just Dell DP/N 0M7M65

          I reflashed the bios chip, no change. I can test the color pattern on the screen by pressing "D" key and power button at the same time. Colors change on the screen. I think I may have a corrupted EC chip.

          Unless, you can have me try another BIOS image.

          Thanks.

            Hey, I tried powering the machine again and this time the charging light showed 3 ember/1 white blinking pattern, indicating the issue with CMOS battery. I took measurements of the CMOS battery and it was reading 0V. I had the CMOS battery replaced and the computer came back to life just like that. So, I thank you for your effort. Computer works just fine now.

                                      Hi everyone,

                                      I have been doing hardware repair as a hobby for some years now and recently decided to learn about repairing laptops as a fun challenge.

                                      I managed to get my hands on a "HP Pavilion Gaming 15-ec2523nd" notebook that only shows a white power LED and doesnt respond to anything.

                                      After initial testing I concluded the bios seems to be corrupted since all voltages are normal and there are no shorts. HP has a feature for a bios restore from USB with winkey+B for this model. This did not work.

                                      I have desoldered the bios chip (GigaDevice...

                                      Hi, my laptop wont boot at all
                                      With original bios no POST, only LED lights
                                      With alternative BIOS from model TP500LN (flashed via programmer) the notebook works again
                                      Some issues
                                      A- with bios from 500LN, it won't update from bios of model 500LA (from 500LN v203 to 500LA v300)
                                      B- If updated from 500LN version 203 to 300, the battery stops being recognized

                                      Things I tried

                                      1- Update / clear ME: Took the non working bios, made a backup, and did this: https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...theory/trouble...

                                      Lenovo Thinkbook 15 G2 ITL i5 (serial number: MP2BFZEF) bios request
                                      by Wahaz
                                      Hello,

                                      I have a Lenovo Thinkbook 15 G2 ITL i5 Laptop (serial number: MP2BFZEF) that when I turn it on, the led on the power button lights up for 5 seconds, then goes out. There's no display and nothing happens.
                                      So I thought it was a Bios problem.
                                      I found 3 bios chips on the board, which I read with a bios programmer: two XMC model bios chips and a Winbond model bios chip. Each XMC model bios chip has two partitions named XM25QH128A [3.3V] and XT25F128A [3.3V]. And the Winbond model bios chip has three partitions named W25Q80BL 3.3V, W25Q80xV 3.3V and W25Q80DV 3.3V....

                                      [HELP] G712LWS BIOS capsule
                                      by TraJikar Mac
                                      I need someone that can capsulate one of the bios files below, and i prefer the older bios version so i can flash it using CH341A tool into the bios chip.
                                      The manufacturer BIOS files are bigger than the BIOSbackup1.bin files by 256KB and I don't know how to fix or recompile it.

                                      You can see in this link a conversation between me and other people (Starting at page 10) who tried to help me (thanks to their efforts), but i still couldn't fix it and the laptop is considered as dead until now.

                                      Also, I uploaded a backup file for the bios that I extracted by using CH341A...
