    ATTN ALL, Update your profiles!

    I have changed some things around. I have split the city/state and country into two separate fields, and I have added a couple extra optional factoids to your profile details.

    All can be edited from here:

    Please do this, it makes for a better experience all around.

          Perhaps a mass emailing would be better?

              New registers are required to put the info in, this message is more or less for our regulars..... A mass emailing = 50,000+ emails....wowza, the spam sniffers would love that, as would the server itself I'm sure... HAHA

                              At 3 emails per minute, that could be done over a 2 week time frame...?

                                              Why is "Well us why you are here" set to "Complete Noob!" by default? D:

                                                      Now, I live in rural Michigan where the infrastructure was last updated around the time Eisenhower was in office, so around half the time I have 0VAC 0Hz line voltage and then 120VAC 60Hz the other half. Which would I use?

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...

Upon the first boot, the CPU LED was red and flashing. I realized that I needed to update the BIOS. I didn't read the ASUS notice that said, "Before BIOS update, please download Intel ME update tool from ASUS support site, and update ME firmware to Version 14.1.53.1649V1.1 to ensure optimized system settings." I updated the BIOS without doing this, and everything seemed fine until the system performed an Intel ME update and shut down permanently. My attempts to reflash it were unsuccessful.

                                                                  I have downloaded a BIOS update tool from the Lenovo site 9dcn34ww.exe when I opened it in 7zip I saw a file called ZIWB2304.ROM which I assumed was the bios file and it loads into UEFItool. The issue is the file size, it is 10,101,992 bytes whereas the dump file I downloaded from the motherboard is 8,388,608 bytes why is there a discrepancy? Also, if I used a plain .bin file from Lenovo would that automatically update the pertinent information from the laptop on first boot? (or does the bios update tool do this?).
