You have to Downgrade to previous Bios and redo result file v. 37 not reflashable !



How To Downgrade :

snebob

Run this to downgrade:

http://download.lenovo.com/consumer/mobi...vy2113.exe

Remember to set the option in bios that enables you to flash an older bios, before you run it.



nop

I found another solution - Just in case it was ever needed.

Download the 1.14 version

http://download.lenovo.com/consumer/mobi...cn31ww.exe

Then use 7-zip to extract that .exe file, You will find a platform.ini file into that folder.

Then Look for "BIOSVFEnable=2" and replace it with "BIOSVFEnable=0", run as Administrator InsydeFlash.exe tool and go !

Verified working

I am a little confused here... Do I need to follow all those steps or just to downgrade using http://download.lenovo.com/consumer/mobi...vy2113.exe and send the new results ?

All the best!

Yes !!! The v. 37 version (your actual) is protected so not moddable !
I will wait your result v.1.13 !

No You can only buy these tools (SPI Programmer and Clip) to
read Firmware then rebuild and then rewrite Back It to Recover
your Laptop !

I have tryed to flash the privious version that you gave me with the bios flash back enabled. However the process faild at 58% it prompted me to press any key to reboot and now I have black screen....


What now?

It's first tme It's happened !
I don't know why my friend, but Lenovo has a Recovery Bios Procedure not
working at all on UEFI !
So as I wrote before . . . .

Yes it is strange and I am not using UEFI...I spoke with the service as it is still in waranty. They will fix it for me. Let's hope that they will flash it to 1.13 so that I can unlock it. Best regards.
