    Asus X7151S Aptio Bios USB Problem

    Hi all..

    Ive an Asus X7151S, was on Win 10, switched to Win 7.
    Booting fine but no usb's when on.
    Ive had this issue before with this Bios but for the life of me I can't see whats causing it in right now..
    Can't install drivers as no wifi drivers, have them on usb but can't get them on.

    In bios, Ive gone to "USB Configuration" and enabled Legacy USB Support, tried it Disabled too but no joy..

    Any ideas..?

    Thanks..

    Ok, got the wifi drivers directly onto hd and installed from there. Got usb ones on too but when I try to install I get "The computer does not meet the minimum requirements for installing the software" Drivers have been downloaded from Asus website for Win 7 and for specific machine..

    Any ideas.?

    Thanks..

      When I'm going install driver always check the Hardware Ids (Device manager>"items"properties>Details), cross-check with Setup_information.inf usually inside driver file (open it with notepad). might be the Hardware Ids no match with your device

          Never tried installing W7 on an Asus X7151S but a quick check on the Asus Windows® 7 Compatible Products page does not show up this model. Maybe not compatible with W7. See Asus compatibility link page below.

            [TUTORIAL] fix asus bios with bios from asus web support (by razor_amd)
            by razor_amd
            With ASUS, not everything is quite so simple. I will show you my way. It may be longer or harder but it is the right way to do it in my humble opinion.

            For example, you can have 3 similar ASUS motherboards, all being the same model, all of which will have different BIOS versions.

            I will give you an example and my version of preparing BIOS from ASUS website and in the process I am always cleaning Intel ME while doing it so you have fully cleaned BIOS, no DMI data, no password, nothing.

            This is the picture of 3 similar ASUS motherboards, all of them being X555LD...

            ASUS Zenbook Pro Duo UX8402ZA BIOS
            by pirati
            Hello everyone,

            I recently bought a non-working Asus Zenbook Pro Duo OLED UX8402ZA that was listed for parts only. The seller mentioned that it had no display output but that the charging lights worked.

            When the laptop arrived (without a charger and SSD), I connected a charger and confirmed with a multimeter that it was charging the battery. However, when I tried to power it on, only the backlight of the secondary display came on. There was no image, and it didn’t boot into the BIOS.

            I decided to try flashing a new BIOS, but since I didn’t want to desolder...

            [Problem/ Request] Bricked TongFang GK7MRFR BIOS
            by cr4zychriss
            Hello everyone,
            I am requesting urgent assistance to unbrick my laptop, a rebranded TongFang GK7MRFR chassis. The laptop is completely dead following a faulty in-OS EC flash attempt.
            I have successfully used a CH341A programmer and can read/write/verify both flash chips, but using my backups/extractions has failed to restore power. The root cause is likely a corrupted Intel Management Engine (ME) region or an incompatible EC/BIOS pairing. System & Hardware Details

            Summary of BIOS Whitelist Removal Problem


            Problem:
            I am attempting to remove the WWAN card whitelist from my Lenovo ThinkPad T560.

            • 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.

            ASUS TP500LA BIOS request/repair/merge?
            by jbonavita
            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...
