    Probook 450 g3 capslock blinking - BIOS

    HI,
    At first power on , black screen and I hear 2 beep and 2 beep with different sound frequency .
    I reprogrammed bios with two differen dump and now no beep but capslock and numlock blink 5 time , after that no blink and fan turns at max speed.
    I read it's possible a general system board failure ?

    Do you mean 2 short beeps and 2 long beeps?

      No, it's strange but the duration of the beep it's the same.
      I would not open the case until I'm sure the problem is not the bios.
      But now 5 blinks seem to be a generic failure
      (I downloaded the dump from dr bios and vinafix )

        at first, was there anything that damaged the original bios?
        were the 4 beeps repeating or performing once?
        a generic failure means the failure can be on any components. I guess it is due to incompatibility of the new bios dumps to your laptop. but I am not sure. it is also possible that they are compatible.
        is there any display with the new bios dumps?

          The 2 + 2 beeps are repeated indefinitely, but I thought if the original bios was good, the dump should also give the same beep frequency.
          I have doubts about the dump because if I remove the ram I do not hear any warning beeps.
          No display

                Try this bios. This is 100% tested ok. If still no display not a bios issue. Do check the mobo code before flashing.

                  I disassembled the notebook, the motherboard has the correct number.
                  Replaced the bios but always 5 blink
                  I think it's a pch problem
                  I used a ram ddr3l 12800s 8 g
                  there are other tests like reprogramming the ec before doing a cpu rework?
                  Cpu is cold I try to check voltages

                      so the original bios seems better.

                        before declaring the Notebook unreparable without replacing the motherboard, I sent the Bios to Doctor Bios and with my surprise the Notebook work fine.
                        I had tried several Bios with no luck

                            This is the bios but at startup appears:
                            system is booting in manufactoring program mode 33
                            I'm trying to fix it, reinsert serial, etc
                            Someone can help me how restore to normal mode ?
                            thanks

                              Every startup the number decrease of one unit, I think the solution is to insert motherboard data and when after a lot of startup the zero number is reached the system return in user mode

                                Use hp BCU utility to fix manufacturing mode issue.

                                          Hp Probook 450 G7 s# SCD0348W35 had a locked BIOS. Bought BIOS and EC chips off Ebay that were supposed to match this machine - the 450 G7. Flashed in the BIOS on chip i bought using a CH341. BIOS unlocked next boot. Some error to contact HP. Entered BIOS and reset to system defaults and rebooted. Machine worked fine but every cold boot the contact HP message popped and everything else worked as fine. Assumed the error was from EC chip not matching BIOS that i just flashed in. So i flashed in the EC that was supposed to match from the EBay chip i bought and instant brick.

                                          Need (unlocked) bios for HP Probook 450 G3 Notebook
                                          by the_raz
                                          I'm requesting a bios .bin for 2 of my hp Probook 450 G3's. Both of which I had forgotten the bios passwords. I stupidly flashed both of them with firmware "made" by the RCUnlocker software and I guess I shouldn't have. The last thing I did was flash both of them with RCUnlocker-fw thinking it would 100% work and left my programmer etc behind and won't have access to them for another 2 days so I figured I'd create a thread to see if I'd be so lucky that someone might have a working file laying around 😝

                                          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...

                                          [REQUEST] Dell G3 3579 BIOS Password & AMI Protected Range/BIOS Guard Unlock
                                          by zenius
                                          Hello, I have an old Dell G3 3579 (ST: 2WQ7LP2-8FC8) with a newer 8FC8 BIOS password. I have successfully attached to the flash chip (W25Q128JVSQ) on the motherboard with a CH341A programmer and made several modifications using Intel FIT (e.g., allow software SPI write) without bricking. I was also able to boot to a modified GRUB shell where I attempted to edit many BIOS security related options like BIOS Guard/Lock, Flash Signature Override, ME FW Image Re-Flash, etc.

                                          Unfortunately, some of these modifications like to Intel BIOS Guard failed because it is fused into the PCH. Also,...
