Re: Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Carbon 14282 Bios

I can run this from an external drive now. Can't get it to recognise the m2 ssd even though it has the most up to date bios and IME.

I know the m2 ssd works on another compter and i also tried a new m2 ssd with no luck. Ive reseated it and cleaned all the contacts etc. No luck

My last thought was to remember this all happened not with a bios update but when the computer was updating the intel management. So might this be corrupt?

MSD Flea -thanks for your suggestion (dont know if my email was sent to you)

I got my computer to boot from an external drive running windows 10 which is great. so i may try:-

- and flash to a newer bios as suggested by SMD Flea -which worries me now -its why im here in the first place but i guess i know how to recover it now.

- otherwise see if the ssd can be recovered in some way (it doesnt show up in windows 10 which im running from the external hard drive)

- or buy another one for about...

Re: Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Carbon 14282 Bios

I'm now getting detection error on storage device(m.2)

but im thinking this might be a good sign.

I might have knackered the ssd from bios update but if the computer works with a replacement ssd then thats better than not working at all and now its looking at the ssd for i presume an operating system, means that maybe the bios is now ok?

ill work on this next and see what happens. Will let you know.

Thank you Peste - ive a got glimmer of hope here
