HP Pavilion Gaming Laptop 15-ec2523nd - Dimm2 slot disabled after corrupt bios repair? Advice requested.

by Bloodhoundje

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...

Fixed: Lenovo P14s Gen 1 (type 20Y1, 20Y2) Laptop (ThinkPad) bricked by a withdrawn BIOS update (r1buj82w)

by akwky

Hi!
Went dumpster-diving and found a bricked Lenovo P14S in trash, few weeks earlier. Symptoms - no screen, no POST, no beep, just keyboard LEDs flashing on powerup. Mute button+LED was responding though, and the display self-test was still working (via the key combo Ctrl+Fn+Power held for some seconds, see the Service manual).

Incidentally, Windows 11 have recently started auto-flashing computer BIOS in our region. Even more suspiciously, Lenovo has released a BIOS update just few days before the PC was trashed. About a week later, the BIOS update image has been oficially marked...

Flex 5-14ITL05 Laptop (ideapad) - Type 82HS bricked after BIOS update

by Jogger9663
Hello all! New here, trying to fix a Lenovo Flex 5 14ITL05 laptop.

TL;DR: How do you connect a programmer to a "leg-less" SPI Flash chip? Model: Winbond W25R256JVEIQ on a board with part number 5B21B33119.

Attached are photographs of the board for context. One is of the SPI chip close-up, the other is of the full board with the chip highlighted.

I have a Lenovo Flex 5 14-ITL05 with the following symptoms following a BIOS update:
- Black screen / no display
- Caps lock indicator stuck ON
- Power LED blinking
- FN Lock key on at boot, but can be toggled

BIOS Help Regarding GM5IX7A-GM6IX7A Origin Laptop

by legendkray

Hi,
I have OriginPC EON 15SL, however, my laptop starts and shutsdown after 1-2 second. Keyboard leds are coming on then fans spinning then it shutsdown and not turning back on unless I plug out the power cable and plug it in. I had issues with bricked BIOS then I flashed BIOS I got from the vendor to the SPI chip and still it didn’t worked because my EC firmware was newer than the BIOS I have flashed. So I wanted to try flashing the EC chip with the correct firmware that matches with the BIOS also from the vendor and it worked everything was well, and then stupid me wanted to unlock some...
