    This is the sn P20A0LEZ number which was in the bios, if it is the same as on the housing, the bios should not be changed by another service, according to this number, this update cqcn35ww.exe should be correct.

        Does the serial number that fire1234 found in the bios match the serial number on the case.Post a picture of the sticker. Do you have an SPI programmer ?

                Need BIOS Dump/ROM for Lenovo Thinkstation p500
                by AHmad_Salal
                Hello all,
                I have a Lenovo Thinkstation P500 that is stuck at post with no display, it happened after I changed the memory timings in bios. I can not clear CMOS using the jumper on the motherboard, also tried re-flashing bios suing a USB stick but it also doesn't work. The only solution that I can think of right now is re-flashing the bios chip using an external programmer but the problem is that I don't have the bios dump of p500 for flashing externally and I don't know the location of bios chip. If someone can provide the bios dump and bios chip location it would be really helpful....

                Request HP Proliant Microserver Gen 8 (J06) BIOS dump to restore system firmware
                by Ahari
                Hi all,

                This is my first post here (I am very new to forums!) and I hope someone can help. I am looking for a full dump of the BIOS of a HP Proliant Microserver Gen 8 so that I can get this mini server running again. (BIOS version J06 2019-04-04, chip 25Q064A). I think my board was partially bricked after a failed BIOS update.

                I got it second hand in this state and all the normal attempts at bios restoration have not worked. I have even desoldered the chip and tried to load the actual BIOS from HP, but it is missing some parts needed to boot the system.

                I...

                I need a BIOS dump for the Samsung S49CG934SU monitor
                by Habble7
                The Samsung S49CG934SU monitor does not power on - no LED indicator activity and no response to power button. However, when 21V power is connected, it immediately draws 0.8A of current with no display output. The motherboard processor gets warm, and there is continuous reading activity from the W25Q128BV BIOS chip.

                Suspected Cause:
                I suspect the BIOS may have been corrupted during a power interruption while updating the firmware. The official website provides firmware updates, but they can only be installed via USB flash drive.

                Troubleshooting Attempts:
                ...

                Lenovo IdeaPad 3 - Hard Disk not recognized in BIOS
                by mkdj
                Dear all,

                I have recently fixed a Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15 ALC6 that was not booting due to a BIOS issue. After flashing the BIOS, the laptop boots up, but hard disk is not recognized in BIOS. Is says "Hard Disk : Not Installed". I have tried with 2 different drives (one that I know is working on another laptop) but I get the same result. I do not know if disks were recognized before I got the laptop and fix it, but I don't see any reason why not. I can boot on USB though.

                Here the steps I have taken to fix the laptop:
                - downloaded latest BIOS from Lenovo Website...

                Lenovo Tiny8 triple NVMe IQ6X0IL1 HQ670 NM-D581 Rev 0.5 M90q Gen 3 / P360 Tiny prototype board BIOS dump
                by Captaincrap420
                Hi, I hope this is the right place to post this. This is my first post on this forum.

                A friend helped me get a prototype Lenovo motherboard from China, it's got a hole drilled in it but I'm working on trying to revive it to some degree. I dumped the bios in hopes that it might be useful to someone, since this board is configured with the 3rd NVMe SSD slot and maybe it is useful as a reference for modding another bios to support this function. For example the M90q Gen 2 / P350's unpopulated 3rd NVMe slot footprint maybe.
                This bios dump is straight from the chip, nothing has been...
