Re: Lenovo E580 Not Turning ON

Hi guys
Faced a strange trouble with my friend's Lenovo e580 20KS-001JRT
If it starts from power off to Windows - it's ok.
But it cannot reboot.
It looks like "low level" hibernation mode.
During a reboot it comes to a sleeping mode somewhen between power-off and power-on. The LED on a power button blinks slowly and no response on any user activity.
Then I have to unplug the power cable, hold the power button for 5-10 seconds to switch the machine off.
I have already tried to clear bios, change it settings, change the ram memory slot - no result.
I guess two reasons of this trouble. First is hardware. But it passed the lenovo low-level diagnostic test (about 5-6 hours) with no problems. Second is bios. And its reason doesn't let me update the bios version because it requires a rebooting, after which the bios updater can get an access to read and change the firmware. So it cannot continue the procedure because it falls to sleep.
Current bios is 1.40.
Need your help.
Thank you.

Thanks.
Have read that rules.

I haven't got any programmer and have no any experience of using it.
So I am currently not sure how to dump the bios and moreover have no idea how to upload the bios to the target device.

Do you have an SPI programmer now ? ,if you do make a backup and post it here.
Its easier to extract the bios update from the windows exe,rather than the ISO ,but it can be done. Extract the exe with innoextract and edit it to the correct size with a hex editor.

I have no a programmer. But I have a guy (service man) with such device.
He will not proceed any file extraction. He will take a bin file and put it to the target chip.
So. I am asking anyone to upload a bin.

then... the "service man" should try post #2... maybe you'll be lucky... but before writing the bios chip, make a copy of the original bios of the laptop even if it's corrupted... if post #2 doesn't work post the copy of the original bios here...
