Hey TI users I'm new to this form and am now a recent owner of a Lenovo Ideapad Y510P (Gt 755m SLI version). It was pre-owned and I got it to use in school but wanted to give it some performance upgrades IE; new sata ssd, new m.2 ssd, and a new Wifi card to replace the antiquated wireless N-Standard with an AC card. AHHH the notorious Lenovo BIOS whitelisting. I've hit a brick wall now as i've installed the drives and wifi card and am ready to install Win 10/Ubuntu now but cannot as the whitelist is telling me to remove the newly installed card. Im following member: svl7 post on how to flash the BIOS but I just joined the community today and do not have sufficient privileges to download the required programs and files for this fix. Please if any admins can point me in the right direction or help me get these files that would be great. A Short bio. Currently pursuing my AAS-T in my CNET coarse here in the USA and recently received my A+ Cert. I love all electronics from old to new and love taking them apart and restoring them to nominal condition. I love gaming on PC, Steam, XBL and learning about Ubuntu. My dream is to become an Network architect or a Big Data farmer one day. This Lenovo is technically my third gaming class laptop in history, the first being Alienware Area 51-M D9t pentium 3, the second a Asus rog g51v, and the now third Lenovo y510p. Ive taken apart and fixed hundred of laptops from my teenage days when i fixed laptops at a local repair store.
