Greetings Deathbringer.

Attached the info you requested.

I am no BIOS expert.  So do need step-by-step instruction on how to flash please.
(to avoid risk of bringing BIOS and laptop to death... ;-)

Tx in advance maestro.

Laptop is on BIOS version 0.3810 as you can see.
I can also flash it to version 2.3821 if that is better?

[Mr.Sun]

And.... now also noticed the button "add attachment" ....

[Mr.Sun]

So BIOS now is on version 0.3810 as you can see.
If it is preferred, I can also flash to version 2.3821?

[DeathBringer]

1. Make DOS USB-stick (e.g, by Rufus).
2. Download BIOS v3636. Extract file PHLASH16.EXE from it and copy to DOS USB-stick
3. Download ZY2L3821.wph (modded by genius239) and copy to DOS USB-stick
4. Boot in DOS from the prepared DOS USB-stick
5. Run:
phlash16 /mode=3 ZY2L3821.wph /x

[Mr.Sun]

I notice "3821"-number in the run-code.

Do I first have to flash to BIOS version 2.3821?
(now laptop is on 0.3810)

[Mr.Sun]

Or is the ZY2L3821.wpf-file that 3821-BIOS incl the modification to recognise T7700 CPU?

As you wish.

Yes, it has microcode for your T7700.

[Mr.Sun]

I get this error-message when running the flash (see attached picto).

Followed the instructions exactly.

(As said: I have BIOS version 0.3810 on laptop now.)
(No idea whether this is the cause or something else. ).

What is going wrong?
