    Lenovo T450 and Computrace

    I am trying to disable Computrace on a T450 I had bought. Does Computrace live in the BIOS and if O replace the BIOS will I be able to disable it?

    Any help would be great!

        You must have a sad, sad boring life if you hate on people harmlessly enjoying life with an animal costume.

        Sometimes you need to break shit to fix it.... Thats why my lawnmower doesn't have a deadman switch or engine brake anymore

              Interestingly enough, after i had built coreboot and had it running for a while, i was able to flash a BIOS ROM i got on this forum that had computrace inactive, and it was disableable as of first boot.
