Re: Lenovo L460 LAN issue after BIOS dump flash

Lenovo L460 LAN issue after BIOS dump flash
Hello everyone.
I have L460 Type 20FV (2 X 8MB bios chips) with no boot issue after BIOS update (black screen with restarts, common issue on this model + BIOS update).
BIOS dump(s) from this post [url]https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showpost.php?p=1166887&postcount=27[/url] makes the laptop boot absolutely fine, no delays, etc..
