    HP 840 G1 bios problem

    Have a nice day!

    After removing the BIOS password (RC Unlocker) I only get an alternating (white-orange) flashing LED. I restored the original bios file, but the same thing happened!

      Your backup file is bad, it is missing Descriptor_region.

          What is the motherboard model number, you don`t have to start a new thread when there are existing threads where you can post.

              The motherboard has the following inscriptions:
              HSTNN-I11C-4
              HSTNN-I11C-5
              SPS 730803-001

                  There should be another marking like 6050A2560201-MB-A03​

                          Can the machine be saved, or should I scrap it?

                                        Summary of BIOS Whitelist Removal Problem


                                        Problem:
                                        I am attempting to remove the WWAN card whitelist from my Lenovo ThinkPad T560.
                                        Initial Findings:
                                        • My current BIOS version is N1KET58W (1.45).
                                        • I have a CH341A programmer and have successfully created two full backups of my BIOS.
                                        • I have the ability to use command-line tools on a Linux machine.
                                        Troubleshooting Steps & Conclusions:
                                        • I attempted to use several automated and manual patching methods on my N1KET58W (1.45) BIOS, including using hex strings. These attempts all failed.
                                        • I concluded that the

                                        Hello. I am asking you for a hint on how to solve the problem with my touchbook Panasonic CF53-2 standart model. After setting up the BIOS, the laptop displays the wrong image until Windows loads. (More precisely, it displays, but distorted, instead of the Panasonic image immediately after turning it on, it displays what is in photo #1 in the attached file) Then the image appears when Windows starts loading and then there are no problems with the screen until the reboot. If you enter the BIOS, just a black screen. If you connect an external screen, the image on it is the same as on the built-in...

                                        TONGFANG "GM7TG7P" Bios Password Problem?
                                        by traxformania
                                        Hello,

                                        I'm using TONGFANG "GM7TG7P" model laptop for over 3 years and i'm entering the same bios administrator password everyday. My laptop has Aptio BIOS (American Megatrends, AMI).

                                        But today it's not accepting my password. I'm %100 sure i'm entering the correct password.

                                        I'm trying to reset my bios without success.

                                        I tried :

                                        -I removed the BIOS battery and main battery. Waited for a long time but it didn't work. They already stated in the user manual that the password will not be reset even if the batteries...

                                        by macabook
                                        Hello everyone,

                                        I’m currently working on a dead MSI GP75 Leopard (MS-17E71) motherboard (i7 CPU, NVIDIA GPU) with a no display/no backlight issue initially. After extensive investigation, I’m at a critical stage involving EC firmware, BIOS/ME region interaction, and possible deep corruption. I'm seeking advanced insight from anyone with experience in EC/BIOS sync issues or PCH-level behavior. Here’s a full breakdown:
                                        🧩 Initial Issue
                                        • Board powers on (fans spin, keyboard lights up and can be adjusted, caps lock led lights), but no display or backlight
                                        • External display (HDMI) shows
                                        ...

                                        I am having some problems with the BIOS of my Versapro PC-VRT42FBFR22B.

                                        I extracted the BIOS file (versapro001.bin 16MB) from PC-VRT42FBFR22B ROM (MX77L12850F) using CH341A and NeoProgrammer V2.2.0.10, but I don't know how to remove the BIOS password, so I can't open the BIOS even if I boot with F2.

                                        I also downloaded the BIOS update package (933A0400.zip) for PC-VRT42FBFR22B from the official...
