      Hi,I made an original dump and removed whitelist, but after flashing the modded BIOS the laptop has black screen. No Post or beeps, just keyboard lights up and so does the touch sensitive F Keys. I have already tried re-flashing original BIOS dump, but get the same black screen, so I assume I must've gotten a bad read.

      If someone has a known good dump I would like to try flashing it, as well as doing a compare to my original dump image. It would be very appreciated!

          I'll be trying to flash with flashrom on Raspberry Pi instead of the CH341a programmer... Not sure what else to try. Any suggestions?

            Another Lenovo X1 Carbon with the same issue here. Happens to them pretty much I think at some stage. Did you manage to get the BIOS reprogrammed or what was involved?

                                          I have made two dumps of this bios, with the bios chip removed from the board and the hashes match on both dumps, but I cannot find the DMI information in the dumps except for the Windows product key, so I think it is corrupted. I have downloaded two bios updates from the Lenovo support site, but they contain small .PAT file, and 4 subfolders containing .FL1 and .FL2 files, which I don't understand enough to figure out how to use to fix my dump.

                                          The problem with the laptop is that...

                                          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...

                                          Need BIOS Dump/ROM for Lenovo Thinkstation p500

                                          Hello all,
                                          I have a Lenovo Thinkstation P500 that is stuck at post with no display, it happened after I changed the memory timings in bios. I can not clear CMOS using the jumper on the motherboard, also tried re-flashing bios suing a USB stick but it also doesn't work. The only solution that I can think of right now is re-flashing the bios chip using an external programmer but the problem is that I don't have the bios dump of p500 for flashing externally and I don't know the location of bios chip. If someone can provide the bios dump and bios chip location it would be really helpful....
