    Hi markus, the bios gives issue on reboots, I flashed the bios again, turned off auto recovery, used it on windows for couple of hours. it rebooted once perfectly fine, but on second reboot , the bios crashed and showed 3 orange 6 white led blinking. I read the bios again and am attaching it here.
    Hello,
    I had the same problem once with a Dell 5590.
    I also recreated the BIOS with 3 and 6 flashing and then everything worked normally.
    Days later the same 3 and 6 flashes again, I then discovered that the Gigadivece IC itself was defective.
    Then I used a Winbond and everything was fine.
    I would use a new chip or another chip for you.

                        Hi Markus , so its been 24 hours i have changed the chip and flashed the bios that you cleaned for me. There seems to be zero issues. I have disabled UEFI updates as a precaution. Thank you so much for all the help you offered.

                        Also for anyone else who's having bios auto-recovery issues, you should try replacing the bios chip.

                        I will keep using the laptop and if there are any issues, i ll post an update here.

                        Thank you so so much, Markus. You are awesome.
