Re: Lenovo IdeaPad 330S-15ARR - 330S_ARR_V06

you need the HxD program (you can find it for free on the internet), enter the original bios of the laptop and the bios extracted from the update on the site in the program, click on the original bios, top left "search", "find", in the top box "lenovo "(search for lenovo), in the box below it remains (text-string) and check 'all' and press ok ... The DMI information is in the region 1EE000 - 1EE22F, so the length of 230, select this region by left click on mouse and going down, then right click and copy. Now click on the bios extracted from the update and search for the same region in this bios (go directly to 1EE000), select the same region (1EE000 - 1EE22F), right click on the mouse and (paste insert). ready with DMI information. For (key windows) the same procedure but the region is 330250 - 330280 so length 40 ..

I hope this helps ..

I am sorry for the delay in replying.
Thank you very much for your help the other day.

I have a couple of questions about what you taught me.

Does the location and length of that DMI information area vary depending on the manufacturer, brand and model?

Are the ProductName, MTM, lenovo SN, and UUID always in the DMI information?

In this case, you said to search for "lenovo" to identify the area of DMI information, but how do you identify the area of DMI information if the make, model, or model number is different?

Do I need to rewrite anything other than the DMI information?

Please let me know.

THANK YOU!!!

Using the information from you post, the BIOS from post #2, and a dump of my corrupted bios; I was able to fix my Lenov 330S-15ARR. My laptop's screen would initially no longer turn on. Googling revealed that this was likely due to corrupted BIOS. I used a CH341A programmer with a 1.8V adapter board and the AsProgrammer software to write the rebuilt BIOS back to my laptop.

Thank you very much.
Your work is perfect.
The BIOS is up and running and I was able to activate the OS.

Thank you very much.

I would like to learn more about BIOS information migration.
I would like to be able to do the migration myself.
I would like to be able to do it myself.
If it's too difficult to teach, can you tell me a site or thread that would be helpful?

This is because there are not many sites in Japanese that can help me.

Re: Lenovo IdeaPad 330S-15ARR - 330S_ARR_V06

Thank you for your reply. Thank you again for your help.
I have confirmed that ProductName and other information has been transferred to the file you provided.

I flashed the file you gave me to the BIOS.
However, the screen remained black and the BIOS did not start up again.

Also, the size of the backup file I attached was 8388608, while the file you gave me was 8388048.

Is it possible that I should be able to just FALSH this?
Please let me know.

try..

Re: Lenovo IdeaPad 330S-15ARR - 330S_ARR_V06

I have a Lenovo ideapad 330S-15ARR (CPU:ADM ryzen 5 2500u).
It powers on and the CPU fan works.
However, the screen remains black and the BIOS won't start up.
The BIOS chip says winbond 25Q64FWSIQ 1821.

I obtained the following BIN file from the Internet, which was created from LENOVO's BIOS update EXE file.
I FLASH'd this BIN file into the BIOS using CH341A and AsProgrammer.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/154O...ew?usp=sharing

The BIOS is now up and running.
However, as shown in the attached image, the ProductName, MTM, LENOVO SN, and UUID became INVALID.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1erH...ew?usp=sharing

Perhaps because the UUID has changed, I cannot activate the reinstalled Windows 10.

The BIOS backup before FALSH is in the following file.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Ibr...ew?usp=sharing

Other than this backup file, there is nothing else that shows the previous UUID, etc.
I want to migrate the previous ProductName, MTM, LENOVO SN and UUID so that the OS can activate the license.
Can someone please help me?

Thank you very much.

Re: Lenovo IdeaPad 330S-15ARR - 330S_ARR_V06

I have same laptop. I push power button, fan spins then slows down, then speeds up, then slows down, etc... power light is not steady.

I fixed exactly the same problem.

Oirginal is BIOS chip 25q64fw - it's 1.8V chip, You need to reprogramm original chip with 1.8V. It will not work on 25Q64FV 3.3V chip, it will spins and slow down fans.

BIOS from post #2 works!
