    How to get the origial BIOS bin file? I see only .exe file on Lenovo site.
    Can someone suggest me hoe to reset this pass?
    Sorry for newbie question(
    you need to open the device and identify the memory from the bios. after it has been found it must be read using a memory reader
    after reading, the program will generate a .bin file with the read data

      Just bought a CH341A programmer for Thinkpad T480s, IC chip is 25Q128JVSQ,

      I used the AsProgrammer 2.1.0 .13 Version, But I cannot find this chip model in CH341A chip list, there are only 25Q128BV and 25Q128FV.
      Can someone help how to handle this IC 25Q128JVSQ?

      Thanks very much.

                  Hi,
                  for me, it doesn't work. BIN is patched, everything seems to work but as soon as I flash back the original dump, I still have the password. Any ideas what I did wrong?
                  Both files attached. Machine is a ThinkPad T450s 20BX-000XGE SN PC-04QAV8
                  Thanks!

                      Hello, I have a problem with my Lenovo ThinkPad E585 laptop (AMD Ryzen 5 2500U). I have a problem at this point in the manual:
                      STEP 4: Enter any character when asked for Supervisor Password
                      When I press F1, a screen is shown asking me to enter the password (on a black background, like a command line) but the keyboard stops working, no buttons on the keyboard work. I also tried to connect a USB keyboard - unfortunately the same thing happened. I tried to turn off and try to repeat all the steps again and again several times - but unfortunately nothing has changed, the laptop seems to freeze. When I restore the backup bios, everything works fine in Windows 10, the keyboard works, the laptop works without any problems (but the password in the bios unfortunately remains and I can't reinstall Windows). I also tried the already patched dump from the forum (post hoaca388):
                      https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...s-dump-request
                      But the result is the same, you can't enter the password on the patched bios. Maybe someone knows a solution, what am I doing wrong?​

                        Tried the prcedure twice, sadly still the same... Is there a difference between supervisor and boot password for patching? Because it seems that it's the boot password on the machine.

                              Hi Everybody! Until now I have been able to unlock a couple of Thinkpads thanks to this system which I think is quite easy and straight-forward.
                              Anyway now I came across a P50, and it seems that autopatcher is NOT working: if I patch the BIOS, laptop boots up for 5/6 seconds but then it shuts OFF. NO video screen, NO beep codes.
                              What I did: dumped the file using a clamp (dumped twice, checked using certutil and generated same hash file so I moved on); patched with autopatched, loaded new BIOS. tried 3 times, same results...
                              Can it be because of the MACRONIX chip? That is the 1st one I am finding (previous ones were Winbond). Attacched original DUMP.
                              I have a P50 and I am also having the same problem. After flashing the patched Bios, the laptop doesn't boot. The power button light turns on, the fan spins, the screen stays black, and after a minute or about 75 seconds, it just turns off.

                              If I write the original Bios back, it boots normally.
                              Did you find any solution for this?

                              I am attaching the original dump and the patched one. Can anyone please help me?

                                  Thank you, but it is the same patched file that I uploaded in my post. It's not booting with that patch.

                                    I was able to fix it, using another P50's patched file. It took a little bit time, and it restarted a few times, but eventually it did boot and I could remove the password.

                                    Thank you anyway.
