          I suggest you to leave HDD/SDD removed from your notebook. Start and check if you have password without HDD.
          If you have password patch the BIOS, run it, put back the original BIOS and check if password is gone. If it is, put back your HDD. If ask for password is clear that your HDD is password protected.

          Do you know to use UEFITool ?
          Since I did get a 2x5 beeps and a black screen on my l560 test system lenovo had won. I bought a used motherboard without a SVP for 160 US$. The first thing I did was to deactivate Computrace.

          I learnt
          • how to read/write from the UEFI bios chip using SOIC-8 hardware,
          • how to identify addresses in UEFITool_0.28.0_linux_x86_64 or UEFITool_NE_A57_linux_x86_64
          • how to read/edit HEX files and it's addresses using Bless,
          • how to compare HEX files using Meld
          • how to replace a motherboard (I did not know how tiny fingers you need)


          I did not learn how to patch an UEFI bios on my own because provided files did not work or documentation is limited/not detailed enough. Since I do not know what is added to the UEFI bios if I provide any bin dump here I will be happy to not having done so. Security for my system is crucial.

          Applying reverse engineering techniques with e.g. IDA Pro to proprietary software from Lenovo is interesting but it costs so much time. Next time I will check if laptops are compatible to open source bios's (e.g. coreboot or libreboot) which I will prefer. Unfortunately l560 is not supported right now.


          I hope that Lenovo will allow open source bios's in the future. If not customers will change their consumption like me.

          Anyway thank's for trying to help!

          Hasta luego!

            I don't know how others patch the BIOS. But in my case, after patching the BIOS, checksum is verified and recalculated by the tool. It can't be done without full image of the BIOS.
            here is dump 4MB and 8MB and it's read 100% good.

                "Press SPACE
                Press the space once more
                TMP certeficate changed"

                When you open the BIOS, the screen is black.
                which step is next?
                Record native bios?

                                            Hi, i have an ASUS PRIME Z590M-PLUS board, which had an shorted Z590 chipset. I have succesfully exchanged the chipset to a factory new one, however there is a serious problem with the Intel Management Engine (later on: ME) not beeing activated after the chipset device replacement.

                                            For lower chipset families (on ASUS boards) it worked to program the oldest bios version into the SPI rom, and the bios had activated the Management Engine itself by default - there was a message on the screen prior booting - "BIOS is updating Management Engine ..... . Do not shut down to prevent...

                                            Is unlocking UEFI worth the hassle? (Surface Pro 4)
                                            by CronaxFD
                                            Hey guys,

                                            Bought myself Surface Pro 4 tablet today on a local craigslist-type website.
                                            I've seen that UEFI was password protected and of course the seller forgot the password, but decided to buy it anyway.
                                            Really needed such a tablet to use with RomRaider to do some logging/tuning on my car.
                                            It has secure boot turned off and boots from USB, so I've formatted SSD and have done clean win10 install.

                                            Works fine, but wanted to ask, are there any real security risks associated with UEFI settings on Surface (remote access etc.)?

                                            From what I've...

                                            Intel NUC NUC6i3SYH UEFI Update went wrong
                                            by S70rm7r00p3r
                                            Hi guys.

                                            I am very new to this business and i have some questions. Maybe someone can help me further.

                                            I have a 2015 Intel NUC NUC6i3SYH and for some internet and office the computer works perfectly. Lately it has been bugging me a bit on and off. Then I saw there is a UEFI update from Intel and I thought if I put it on, the problems might be gone, but unfortunately the update didn't go through. The screen stayed black and after waiting for a while nothing happened, I had to pull the plug at some point. Of course, the NUC then failed to boot!

                                            ...

I waited for approximatly 2h and then stopped the laptop...
