    Presario 21-N0F3AR need CLEAN ME

    Motherboard: C21_VC 1
    S/n: CQNSN08858

    Hi friends. I changed EC and PCH because they were shorted (the LVDS cable was all twisted and shorted). The laptop already gives video but it does not work with HDD or USB, the Windows Manager detects them because the model of the hard drive and the pendrive appears, but when you press enter it does nothing and remains in the same place, I have tried with several BIOSes from the internet but it does the same

    Could it be that it is necessary to clear the ME REGION of the main BIOS? I upload the copy of the original BIOS if you think it is feasible to solve the problem by cleaning the ME region. I ask anyone who can and wants to clean it. Thank you so much​

    The posted bios cannot be cleared, check the board to see if you have another bios chip.

        Clean ME region - a bit of theory
        by Adenitz
        Hello laptop repair experts,
        can someone plese, help me understand the significance of cleaning ME region in a BIOS dump file?
        I know that Manegement Engine (ME) data is part of BIOS/UEFI firmware. I know that it contains some HW specific data for the particular laptop.
        What I don't know, why do I need to clean ME region if I try BIOS dump file from another laptop (of course same type and model). I'm not sure if this is only because of the serial number (not sure if that is stored in ME region at all).

        Recently, I had a two cases where laptops (one is Lenovo Idepad...

        ASUS ZenBook UX480F : need help with cleaning the ME region of my BIOS dump
        by mkdj
        Dear all,
        I have a ASUS ZenBook UX480F with the following symptoms:



        I suspect it is a BIOS issue. So I decided to try to clean the ME region. I followed the guide on win-raid, and I believe I have done everything correctly. My problem is: when I open the outimage.bin in ME Analyzer, it says that it is Extracted, and not Region, Extracted as it should be. Is it normal, or did I do something not correctly? This is my first experience editing BIOS files.

        I would appreciate if someone could take time to explain the issue, so that I can learn. But I would...

        Bricked bios from a legion y540-15irh (81sx) . Needing dmi/clean me region maybe
        by Lexsmash85
        Edit: apologies, I only need help with the DMI info.. I thought the ME region would need attention in order to recover from bricked state but maybe I misunderstood.

        Im a novice to this experience but in short, I performed a backlash from the latest and final bios firmware BHCN45WW to BHCN26WW hoping that would solve an issue with keyboard functionality failing after an update. Ended up hanging during flash process and then system would no longer POST on reboot.

        USB recovery process didn't seem to take. So today I successfully managed to get the BIOS dump from my machine...
