I'm not sure if this is related to the modified BIOS but I need to ask. A little while ago I flashed these bios and a few weeks later my power brick burned up. About a month ago I flashed these modified bios and a few days ago my hard drive just completely died. I think it was baked by heat. The Fan speed does not seem to go up as high as stock bios while running the modified ones. Could these events be related to the modified Bios or something I changed in the Bios?

I found my way back here after I restored my bios back to stock to check something. (I was having power issues, was a bad power adapter) Read a little further thinking that I would have re-tried posting the solution, but I could not find it. Saw mention from a mod(Prema) that something bugged up in my post and it just wasn't there, never made it to the server to post. Then saw my post was edited by Prema. So I'm going to post again because I know I'll end up finding my way back here to be disappointed in myself that I never posted the solution. Realized that it was the FIRST search result in google and that 2 years later, thought I would try again to explain how to get the flash to work when you get "The version of rom file isn't newer than version of bios." That's it, I'll edit my original post too for convince if I can. Let's hope this post makes it to the forum this time.

Can I restore back to the stock 2.07 firmware? Flashing the firmware from Lenovo gives the error "The version of rom file isn't newer than version of bios." Thank you. EDIT: I fixed this and shared a tutorial on how to do it. My post is currently awaiting a mod to approve it. (My fix was submitted on Nov, 19, 2013 at about 9PM EST and should appear after this one.) Am I allowed to post a reply yet? If so, I will edit this post. If not, I will PM you. Ok, forget my last post that still hasn't been "approved". I am not allowed to PM or post a reply. If I am ever allowed to communicate, I will get back to you nicholas0444. This is really stupid, forum admin! UPDATE EDIT WITH THE FIX: (Oct 26, 2015) Here's the solution: Sorry for it taking 2 years. None of the many posts and updates I made ever got posted. Reason was basically that they didn't make it to the server. Everything I do is pending admin approval and admins don't have anything pending for me, so I don't know what happened. Ridiculous restrictions.
