I tried comparing the both files and found out that some entries in Intel Image-->ME region-->MDES have changed (images attached). Is this normal?
P.S. MDES is ME debug event service....Last edited by AHmad_Salal; 12-01-2023, 11:03 AM.Leave a comment:

I tried reading the bios chip again today (file attached) and guess what? The MD5 sums of this file doesn't match with the previous dump that I created yesterday and it is quite confusing for me. Am I not installing the adapter clip correctly or have the contents of chip changed overnight?
P.S. CR2032 coin cell battery is not installed in the motherboard....Last edited by AHmad_Salal; 11-30-2023, 12:44 PM.Leave a comment:

Can't interpret what you are trying to say and what to do with this file (I am newbie in the bios field)?...Last edited by AHmad_Salal; 11-30-2023, 05:40 AM.Leave a comment:

I don't have the backup bios file but I tried reading the bios chip using CH431 mini programmer, not sure if was a good read or not so I did it twice. Dumps attached (could not upload .bin so uploaded .zip containing two dumps).
P. S. Suspected bios chip located (please confirm by looking into the dump contents), It's a MX25L12873F...Last edited by AHmad_Salal; 11-29-2023, 10:16 PM.Leave a comment:

Need BIOS Dump/ROM for Lenovo Thinkstation p500
Hello all,
I have a Lenovo Thinkstation P500 that is stuck at post with no display, it happened after I changed the memory timings in bios. I can not clear CMOS using the jumper on the motherboard, also tried re-flashing bios suing a USB stick but it also doesn't work. The only solution that I can think of right now is re-flashing the bios chip using an external programmer but the problem is that I don't have the bios dump of p500 for flashing externally and I don't know the location of bios chip. If someone can provide the bios dump and bios chip location it would be really helpful....Last edited by AHmad_Salal; 11-28-2023, 10:42 PM.
