      Doesn't work, same reaction as on my original, when I plug charger, white led lights up for a second and then disappears, and then no reaction for power button.

        Also, this is the one I tried that makes the laptop boot into Windows, with working nvme, fingerprint reader etc, but as I previously said, entering service tag and exiting manufacturing mode causes it to brick again: https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...52#post1685652

        What's worth noting, is that using this bios screen has some lines at the top and at the bottom, which looks like some timings/synchronization issue, because it reacts weirdly to changing resolution and the screen doesn't look like broken. On external display via hdmi it's ok.

                Bios update error , The current status is that there is a TPM error and the hard drive is not recognized. The BIOS versions on the forum either do not display anything or show the logo and then blink 3 amber and 6 white. Some BIOS versions disable the TPM error but still do not recognize the SSD. I am attaching the original BIOS and hope everyone can help.

                                  Hi

                                  i have dell latitude E7270 with following symptoms:
                                  - takes long time to restart.
                                  - sometimes powers on and then off
                                  - sometimes while working it just dies,

                                  From googling online bios clean could possible resolve this?

                                  i was able to save bios and was going to try bios clean myself but get an below error when i drop it in ME analyzer.(unsure whether this sometimes occurs or could be due to bad/corrupt bios)

                                  As ME analyzer gave me an error i just decided to write bios with a cleaned bios from E7270 bios post.
                                  I reinstall...

                                  🛠️ MSI GP75 Leopard MS-17E71 – No Display, Deep BIOS/EC Troubleshooting
                                  by macabook
                                  Hello everyone,

                                  I’m currently working on a dead MSI GP75 Leopard (MS-17E71) motherboard (i7 CPU, NVIDIA GPU) with a no display/no backlight issue initially. After extensive investigation, I’m at a critical stage involving EC firmware, BIOS/ME region interaction, and possible deep corruption. I'm seeking advanced insight from anyone with experience in EC/BIOS sync issues or PCH-level behavior. Here’s a full breakdown:
                                  🧩 Initial Issue
                                  • Board powers on (fans spin, keyboard lights up and can be adjusted, caps lock led lights), but no display or backlight
                                  • External display (HDMI) shows
                                  ...
