hey! I'm trying to repair my x1 yoga gen 4, some component on the keyboard side of the board blew and I'm trying to figure out what it was. I can't find a board view, but if you have any pictures of the other (non-CPU) side of the board that would help me a TON. Thanks!

I have a X1 Yoga 2nd Generation with a BIOS password. I read the BIOS chip and patched it with the autopatcher. After I flashed the chip, the laptop is not booting anymore. Even I flash the original BIOS back, it is still not booting.
What can be the reason? I attached the original and patched files. I'll be very thankful if anyone can help.
have a laptop here that has a supervisor Password (dump in Attachements).
Before i write the Serial NR.etc i wanted to say that strangely after flashing with 3 different Bios dumps and one from lenovos site

Anyway i wanted to ask what of the two chips is the ec bios because on the left...
Hi Guys,
I thought I write you a tutorial on how to remove your bios password from your lenovo x390 yoga.
Steps:
1. Get an EC programmer and read the EC firmware.

So I have this X380 Yoga with a supervisor password in place and before doing anything stupid I figured I'd rather ask.
I plan on using the tool from this thread: https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...password-remov...
I'm encountering an issue with my Lenovo X1 Yoga 5th Gen laptop related to the BIOS supervisor password. I'm seeking assistance and guidance from the knowledgeable members of this community in resolving this problem.
I am no expert and cannot perform soldering or unsoldering of the chip from the board. Therefore, I attempted to use an EZP 2023 programmer with a clip to extract the BIOS bin file without removing the BIOS chip from the motherboard. The BIOS chip has the following letters imprinted on it: "Winbond 25Q80DVNIG 2026". I used the...
