                                X240 BIOS FILE/Clean ME HELP

                                Hello!

                                I recently bought two X240 Laptops, which had 5 beeps on startup.

                                I flashed the BIOS Chip with a DUMP-File I found on Google, that resulted in the machines working.
                                I used a CH341, chip is W25Q128FV

                                However, the ME Firmware Version is missing in the BIOS which causes it to be very slow on boot (takes about 20 sec before Lenovo logo appears.

                                As far as I've understood I need a clean ME on the dump-file for it to work properly.

                                Can anybody help me with this?

                                Original BIOS-files (corrupt, I think):
                                https://easyupload.io/j8so1r
                                https://easyupload.io/66i60w

                                Dump-file I used (works but slow and missing ME Firmware in BIOS):
                                https://easyupload.io/bx9jf3

                                Would really appreciate it if someone could help me with this.

                                      I think my original bios files were completely corrupt so might need to ''fix'' a dump file if that is possible?

                                          Hi all! I was reading on tutorials how to flash a bios to remove password from a bios, and I ended up reading the EC chip instead of the main bios chip, it only gave me a .bin file of 1,024kb, I learned later that that is the EC chip not the main bios chip (I should have read the tutorials here instead before attempting anything, my bad), I went to flash the original backup, the 1,024kb size file into the same chip and laptop is not powering up anymore. I may have screwed the chip or even the motherboard (Hopefully not), I am trying to see if there is a fix before I discard it. I had a couple...

                                          So far I've been a silent reader, but now I need your help

                                          I bought a laptop. The seller said the bios was locked. I was looking for a way to remove this ban.
                                          I then got the CH341A and pulled the corresponding files from here https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...evices-and-ele...
                                          The laptop was brought in with a BIOS problem and a password. After reading the dump, the information was damaged. I ask for help in the BIOS with a clean ME region. Motherboard 213035-1. Serial number: PW+04e998, Type number: 21c3-0016ge

                                          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...
