Hello ~~friend~~!!
The setup package "cfcn24ww.exe" download from your google space ,it can be extract another bios update utility ,it also named "cfcn24ww.exe",but it is an insyde bios icon. I have attach it on my upload rar file.

You can uncompress it by winrar ot 7-zip and you can get some files on the same folder.
Some tips for you ,"AIWZ2106.ROM" is bios file ,"H2OFFT-W.exe" is bios update utility.
I have tried to replace logo which you wanna.
Here is my mod bios download link.

When I restart the computer, it say that: InsydeH2O - Secure Flash/ Error: Invaild firmware image!!!
I guest the there is problem with the splash screen because the original.bmp is supposed to be an image with "LENOVO" wrote in it.
Can you show me the problem please.
Thanks very much

It seems has some protection for update bios ,so we need think another method to backup bios and write.

Do you have any idea??

Hi~~i checked results.rar that you uploaded ,i found intel
fpt tool can backup current bios on your system ,the fpt version is 11.0.0.1194.

x64_bios-region_11.0.0.1194.bin is bios backup which it is only main bios area.
You can watch fpt-info.txt to know some information.
"CPU/BIOS - ID: 0x00, Read: 0x00B, Write: 0x00A" ,it mean which we can dump current bios and write it again.

Can you test flash you dump bios "x64_bios-region_11.0.0.1194.bin" by intel fpt ??
Of course you can named it to a short word,like "bios.rom"

If it it can success flash by intel fpt tool , it mean we can flash the mod bios which it didn't need to pass bios secure check.

Can you test it and give me a feedback??
Goodluck to you.
===================
You can find tool from scarletgold's BACKUP_Tools18.
You need running intel fpt tool on windows cmd as administrator.
Simple backup and flash parameter below:
FPTW -bios -d bios.rom
"dump current bios to bios.rom"

FPTW -bios -f bios.rom
"flash bios.rom to main bios area on chip."

Or you can enter "FPTW -?" to understand its parameter.

Have to complete some essay for University, I will check right away when I'm done

Yeah, Protected Range Registers again:

I'll try to disable secureboot and then rum program on pureDOS.

UPDATE: Fail and Fail...

Just for sure: How do you modify that AIWZ2106.ROM file, I can flash the original AIWZ2106.ROM with H2OFFT-W.exe like normal, and I can't modify it with cbrom198.

You can use "phoenixtool266" or "uefi tool" to replace module.
Original AIWZ2106.ROM offset 201210 to 80120f is just bios image ,it size was 6291456.

Can you test fptw -f biod.rom??
