Hello,

I am troubleshooting a Dell XPS 12 with motherboard 9Q23 (Compal LA-8821P) that failed during a Windows 10 update. The system powered off abruptly and never booted again. Initial behaviour

• Power button would immediately shut the system off
• System auto-powers when AC adapter is connected (battery removed)
• Beep code: 3 beeps – pause – 3 beeps (continuous)
• Fan never spins

This behaviour suggests that POST starts but fails very early in initialization. On this platform, 3 beeps are generally associated with system board / chipset...

Serial: M4NRKD01530915H

Thanks in advance!...

Hi all,

I got a Lenovo Thinkbook 16P G2 ACH on the bench with a botched BIOS (somehow my client blanked it). I restored the laptop and got it up and running with original BIOS from Lenovo Support website.
My problem is now that the machine details are missing in the BIOS (Serial Number, MTM, etc.)

I am now asking here for help if anyone knows how to do this in...
