    You will need to buy an SPI bios programmer to make a backup of the bios chip contents. If the bios chip voltage is 1.8V then you might have to buy a 1.8V adapter as well,if the programmer you choose only supports 3V

        Lenovo ThinkPad 10 (20C3) BIOS password need unlock help

        Hello everyone, the device I'm currently using is a ThinkPad 10, which is a tablet computer. The BIOS is currently locked, and when I try to access the BIOS, it asks me to enter a password or an unlock key. Can I use this "<unlock key hint number>" to unlock the BIOS?

        Unlock Key Hint Number:3CE9C929

        I'm currently unable to access the operating system because my hard drive is also encrypted with BitLocker. This means I can't flash the BIOS file, it's causing me a lot of trouble

                      Fixed: Lenovo P14s Gen 1 (type 20Y1, 20Y2) Laptop (ThinkPad) bricked by a withdrawn BIOS update (r1buj82w)

                      Hi!
                      Went dumpster-diving and found a bricked Lenovo P14S in trash, few weeks earlier. Symptoms - no screen, no POST, no beep, just keyboard LEDs flashing on powerup. Mute button+LED was responding though, and the display self-test was still working (via the key combo Ctrl+Fn+Power held for some seconds, see the Service manual).

                      Incidentally, Windows 11 have recently started auto-flashing computer BIOS in our region. Even more suspiciously, Lenovo has released a BIOS update just few days before the PC was trashed. About a week later, the BIOS update image has been oficially marked...
