Hi!
I’ve recently flashed my y580 to disable bios password (I was trying to be hacky back then at 2015 and forget it) because I needed Vt-x enabled and secure boot disabled. I dumped it with SPI programmer and uploaded to bios-mods forum. After receiving feedback from kind people I’ve flashed it with my new dumps:
- W25Q32V (U5 chip)
- EN25QH16 (U9 chip - EC)
After successful flashing procedure, very happy, started using my laptop with Ubuntu Linux. Then it occured, after 30 minutes, it did a cold shutdown. They happen all the time on various OSes (Ubuntu, Windows 7/10). I’ve tried installing Intel ME drivers from lenovo site - nothing. In Windows “device manager” there is no sign of Intel Management Engine.
Note: I didn’t swap my CPU or any other part.
Useful logs in attachments section.
Note 2: Should I upload here my bios dumps (old one and modified)?
Is it possible that Ubuntu Linux caused that issue?
