Hi SVL7, I'm not sure how much time you have or when you are available, but I sure could use your help. [Quick recap:]Here is what I can do so far: Windows backup my bios: fptw64.exe -d old.rom -bios create fixed bios: y500biosFix | old.rom | v202.rom modified file name:v202fix.rom boot into dos prr.exe = ready to flash attempt to flash: fpt -f v202fix.rom -bios ERROR (see previous bios screenshot) with funky codes. attempt to flash from windows: fptw64.exe -f v202fix.rom -bios ERROR:28 I even removed the wireless card just in case it was causing issues, but I still have the same problem. This is a LENOVO y500 mfg 3-5-13 with no extra graphic card in the expansion bay Anyhow, whenever you're around, I'll try to make myself available. I'm in [GMT-7] time zone, but if you name a time, i'll do my best to be there.

Thanks man, I'll catch up with you on Friday.

Hi SVL7, When I boot into dos and run this command: fpt -f biosfix.rom -bios I get the following error: The rest of the steps for backing up the bios works great. I only have the problem when I try to flash after booting into dos. Any suggestion?
