  1. Can somebody tell me where it leaves the backup bios, Maybe i'm doing something wrong. I extract Fptw64.zip to a new folder on the desktop and i execute the backup.bat as an administrator i don't get errors but i cannot see a backup file of my bios.

    Also tried it with the command the box closes but does not leave a bios file in the same folder i put the command in the box that you get when you open fptw64.exe

    Nevermind it is working now.

  2. Hello,

    I messed up my computer (Y500, came with windows8). Long story short, I had to reformat everything. Now I'm using windows7 which is not compatible with the cd-key embedded in the BIOS, and it won't let me activate my windows7.

    I am wondering if flashing the bios in the method described by the first post would fix this issue, and make the computer be able to accept other windows OS (like windows 7)? If not, how should I proceed to fix the issue? I have tried and failed to locate a valid windows8 iso online ;(

    I have the recovery discs just asked them at lenovo and got them. It are 4 disks you can even do a clean install with them without all the lenovo crap. So just try and get the recovery disks.
