Bricked BIOS. cant boot ='( help please - Lenovo G400s
#1
Hi, im using Lenovo G400s. I was trying to flash whitelist bios. I found the exact same bios name and version for my laptop and decided to flash the bios to my laptop. Currently my laptop is semi-brick with error when trying to start the laptop.

Ive tried the recovery method for insydebios. 
extracting ROM file from official bios from lenovo and rename it to VILG1X64.FD as recommend by pheonix tool. booting recovery by Fn+B+power. Laptop fan spins at full speed and i waited for 10 mins but its not successful

Can someone help:
My bios backup with universal bios backup toolkit:

Original Bios:

Hello!
Lenovo is vendor of Insyde bioses which not give guide how to Recover bricked laptop after failed flash procedure. Now you know how difficult to mod Lenovo bioses. You last way is HW SPI Programmer. You must have full saved dump which will flash into bios chip.It contains all necessary information (SN. UUID, FCC ID and etc.).Bios chip must sold out to prepare be reading by SPI Programmer. You may ask this action in Laptop repair services.

I am hoping someone could direct me on how to recover with that method / tell me where did i go wrong. =( i would really appreciate it
