Lenovo G585 Bios for UMA mainboard

[caspian]

Dear forum members,

Laptop: Lenovo G585
Mainboard: LA-8681P

I have attached the Bios dump from my Lenovo G585 with a GPU:

If someone has a Bios dump from a Lenovo G585 that has no GPU, please upload it here for me.
I urgently need it if it is from a LA-8681P mainboard without GPU.

thanks

thank you
I have tested both these Bios dumps, but there was no change. probably, the FCH is defective. If I find this mainboard, I will replace the entire mainboard.

Replacing the FCH will likely fix your problem. You dont do bga rework??

no, I do not have any BGA machine. because it is too expensive. Every time I discover a BGA chip is defective, I stop repairing and return the laptop back to customer.

Re: Lenovo G585 Bios for UMA mainboard

both the above Bios dumps seem to belong to a mainboard with GPU. I still looking for another bios dump that differs from these dumps.

Re: Lenovo G585 Bios for UMA mainboard

thanks, that link contains a bios dump which is the same as the one provided in Post#3. So I tried it before.
this thread is connected to my other thread here:
https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=73661

still looking for a UMA bios dump or somehow to combine the bios dumps of Post1 and Post2. because each one makes some part of the FCH work correctly.

Re: Lenovo G585 Bios for UMA mainboard

Sorry, i should have checked first before posting it. I found a bios that may be the right one this time,although its for a ideapad G485 its the same bios version as the UMA G585

offset 3E000 IdeaPad G485 , Win Key at 350000

34FE000 $BVDT$...$.1)$6CCN96WW(V8.08).........$QAWGE.

QAWGE is a UMA board i believe ?

Re: Lenovo G585 Bios for UMA mainboard

As you help me continue this repair, I appreciate. I will try this file and report back.

Re: Lenovo G585 Bios for UMA mainboard

The EC posted by @mahmoodjavan at post #3 has these strings starting at offset 4000 QAWGE,QAWGF,QAWGK .Can you backup your EC and check if it has those same strings,or compare the two files.Maybe you have to flash the EC.

Re: Lenovo G585 Bios for UMA mainboard

I do not have any EC programmer. So I hope EC programming is not required.
Only QAWGE is mentioned in all the above Bios dumps. and the mainboard is marked by QAWGE.

Re: Lenovo G585 Bios for UMA mainboard

I have tried the bios dump of Post#10. It acts the same as the dump of Post#2. that means no change.
Only the original dump (in Post#1) works well but it was not written to accept UMA conversion. after they updated the Bios to the one of Post#2, it accepts UMA conversion but it is not compatible to my mainboard.
I am still looking for other Bios dumps to try.

Re: Lenovo G585 Bios for UMA mainboard

is there a way to extract the GPU or graphics section from Post#2 's Bios and replace it into Post#1 's Bios?

Hello,

If somebody ever needs a bios for this UMA board then this is it. Laptop has shorted APU.
So I think the dump will be OK

The board is QAWGE LA-8681P Rev 1.0 2012-04-02.
