                      How to determine ME region version using calculator (view>Programmer)

                      1. open bin file with Hex editor (HxD freeware)
                      2. Search Text String $MN2, the red box is ME region firmware version
                      3. -08 00 = 00 08 = 8
                      -01 00 = 00 01 = 1
                      -03 00 = 00 03 = 3
                      -2D 05 = 05 2D = 1325
                      so the ME version 8.1.3.1325

                                  Dynabook Satellite Pro C50D-B-100 - BIOS Issue, Black Screen

                                  Hello everyone,

                                  I am experiencing a BIOS-related issue with my Dynabook Satellite Pro C50D-B-100. When I power on the laptop, the screen stays black, and there is no response from the system. I suspect a corrupted BIOS.

                                  I have checked the forum and the available documentation but could not find a solution specific to my issue.

                                  Issue wtih [crisis] BIOS recovery
                                  by SGVsbG8sIHdvcmxkIQ
                                  Hi,

                                  BIOS update bricked my laptop - after restart the was a prompt to Proceed with ROM flash or Abort. None of 2 options worked - upon restart the same prompt shown.

                                  I downloaded [BIOS update].exe file from Lenovo Support > extracted [firmware descriptor].fd file > renamed it to [correct crisis file name].bin.

                                  With crisis file on USB drive the Proceed with ROM option launches recovery - after displaying the current and the new BIOS version, the process terminated immediately with validation error:

                                  Not allow flash. Boot Guard version verification...

                                  Hi, my laptop wont boot at all
                                  With original bios no POST, only LED lights
                                  With alternative BIOS from model TP500LN (flashed via programmer) the notebook works again
                                  Some issues
                                  A- with bios from 500LN, it won't update from bios of model 500LA (from 500LN v203 to 500LA v300)
                                  B- If updated from 500LN version 203 to 300, the battery stops being recognized

                                  Things I tried

                                  1- Update / clear ME: Took the non working bios, made a backup, and did this: https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...theory/trouble...

                                  Lenovo Thinkbook 15 G2 ITL i5 (serial number: MP2BFZEF) bios request
                                  by Wahaz
                                  Hello,

                                  I have a Lenovo Thinkbook 15 G2 ITL i5 Laptop (serial number: MP2BFZEF) that when I turn it on, the led on the power button lights up for 5 seconds, then goes out. There's no display and nothing happens.
                                  So I thought it was a Bios problem.
                                  I found 3 bios chips on the board, which I read with a bios programmer: two XMC model bios chips and a Winbond model bios chip. Each XMC model bios chip has two partitions named XM25QH128A [3.3V] and XT25F128A [3.3V]. And the Winbond model bios chip has three partitions named W25Q80BL 3.3V, W25Q80xV 3.3V and W25Q80DV 3.3V....
