hi guys! Can someone help with my BIOS? I want to unlock the advanced options in BIOS on the laptop Lenovo Ideapad Gaming 3 15IMH05. im currently on the EGCN41WW
use HWinfo to check the ME version, then download the corresponding version CSME System Tools <=15/16. in the FPT folder run the command as an administrator “fptw64 -bios -d BIOS_Region.bin” & “fptw64 -d Full_Backup.bin”, send the bios region dump here or pm me.
Good night, I believe the CSME version for EGCN41WW is 14.1. My laptop also uses this BIOS. I have a Lenovo Ideapad Gaming 3i 15imh05 - 82CG. I’m currently on the EGCN41WW, but my BIOS is bricked. Could you help me?
My laptop:
Ideapad Gaming 3i 15IMH05 (Type-82CG)
BIOS Version: EGCN41WW
Intel ME version: 14.1.70.2228 (Intel Management Engine 16.1 Firmware)
Motherboard: LNVNB161216
Intel HM470 Comet Lake (PCH-H)
SN: PE08MVGF
MTM: 82CG0004BR
My BIOS dump isn’t the original one that came with the computer, because it had a problem and I had to install one that has some issues.I have the CH431a programmer.
Dump files:
Describe why this statement…
State the source of this bios/dump and why used… if it has “problems”…not described…
And where is the ORIGINAL corrupted dump before any programming containing the original Lenovo system data?
[justify]Well, after the laptop stopped working, I did a BIOS recovery via USB, using a file from the manufacturer’s website. At the time I didn’t have the programmer, so I couldn’t make a backup beforehand.
However, after the BIOS recovery, my laptop doesn’t seem to recognize the PCI ports correctly, and identifies PCI ports from other processors (mine is Comet Lake), as seen in the image.
Sorry for the English, I used Google Translate. I’m Brazilian.
The dumped bios you shared doesnt match your system data and has blanked data, this file has a WLic on it but it seems more a flashed web dump than a recovery flash…
We dont fix web dumps with other systems data or blanked, anyway your issue on PCI misbehavior could be a corrupted CSME firmware that needs to be cleaned/re-initialized.
Nothing more to add from my part, wait for other users.
Ok, thank you.
