            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

                  PS5 EDM-031 1216A BIOS Issue
                  by Syph1979
                  Hi all. First post here, so I hope I'm getting this right and operating in the spirit of things here.

                  I've been working on consoles for a while now. Always learning and trying new repairs, but I have one that has been stumped and I wondered if anyone with more experience could help?

                  I picked up a PS5 from eBay recently. It was described as not having the disc drive, but it was also a no power unit. On testing it was clearly an issue with the supply (no 12v), so I replaced that and then when I inserted the power lead, I got 3 beeps. So far, seems all related. As I was...

                  Lenovo Legion Slim 5 16APH8 (RTX 4070) - Turns on for a few seconds then shuts off. BIOS issue.
                  by riko 656
                  Hello everyone,
                  I need help with my Lenovo Legion laptop. It turns on for a few seconds and then immediately shuts down. I believe this is a BIOS corruption issue.
                  Laptop Model:
                  • Model: Lenovo Legion Slim 5 16APH8
                  • GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070
                  • Main BIOS chip size: 32MB
                  • VBIOS chip size: 16MB
                  Problem Description: The laptop was working perfectly. Now, when I press the power button, the keyboard lights up and the laptop powers on for just a few seconds, then it shuts itself off completely. After researching, I am convinced it's a corrupt BIOS.
                  What I Have Tried So Far:

                  Dynabook Satellite Pro C50D-B-100 - BIOS Issue, Black Screen
                  by wizard13
                  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:
