Thank you for the quick reply! It's an X240, given the current age and value, *I* am the repair center! I will keep digging, but assuming the BIOS is good then, would you be willing to unlock the advanced menu on it?

I don't think it's a good idea to unlock BIOS on a damaged laptop in your case.

You were absolutely right! I had a closer look around the RAM area and found a tiny white speck of... something, firmly lodged between two of the RAM connector pins on the motherboard itself (not inside the slot). It spread a bit like paste as I cleared it out with a very fine-tipped screwdriver & some 99% IPA. I unsoldered the flash chip, reprogrammed to the original bin (the one I linked previously), resoldered. Every boot is now successful! I was also able to WinFlash to downgrade to 2.40 error-free (original BIOS was 2.43).
