      Could anyone help me with a ThinkPad, which is currently password in the BIOS?
      thinkpad x1 extreme gen 1
      model : 20MF-000DUS
      bios : N2EET42W (1.24)
      s/n : R9-0V246W
      year : 19/05

      note : I already tried with Lenovo Patches v2 and it left my laptop with a black screen and beeps as if it was missing memory ram.

          Hello. I'd like some help with a t480 with a (presumably) corrupt bios.
          Type: 20L6-S18E00
          S/N: PF-1FD5RP

          The device doesn't boot and gives a chime, error code 010288.
          Due to this, I don't know about the bios revision information.
          Dump of the chip is attached.
          Thanks in advance for the help!

            Summary of BIOS Whitelist Removal Problem


            Problem:
            I am attempting to remove the WWAN card whitelist from my Lenovo ThinkPad T560.
            Initial Findings:
            • My current BIOS version is N1KET58W (1.45).
            • I have a CH341A programmer and have successfully created two full backups of my BIOS.
            • I have the ability to use command-line tools on a Linux machine.
            Troubleshooting Steps & Conclusions:
            • I attempted to use several automated and manual patching methods on my N1KET58W (1.45) BIOS, including using hex strings. These attempts all failed.
            • I concluded that the

            Need Clean BIOS/EC Bin File for Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 11e - Stuck with 0275 Error CMS

            Hello everyone,

            I am attempting a repair on a Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 11e that is currently stuck at boot with the error: "0275 error CMS" even after setup new bios battery and will not allow me to enter the BIOS/Setup.

            This is a critical issue that I believe requires flashing the BIOS chip directly using a programmer (e.g., CH341A/RT809H), as standard software updates or resets are not possible.

            I have opened the laptop and identified the main BIOS chip...
