stayinthelight Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Hi, first of all sorry for my english, is not my native language. I made huge mistake and need your advice to help me solve my problem. I have flashed accidentally my bios with wrong version. I have Y580 (v bios: 5dcn40ww) but instaled bios from G580 (v bios: 5ecn96ww). Flashing proces went smoothly w/o any errors but after restart my HDD is not visable in bios (only SSD work). When i tryied reflash it back, pop an error: I googled a bit and find the way to skip this error (extracted 5dcn40ww.exe using winzip and edited [Platform_Check]Flag=0 in platform.ini ) It helps, but in next stage, during flashing it returns an error: After many attempts and edits platform.ini i couldn't solve this error. If any1 know how to do it please tell me! ----------------------------------------------------- I have found following solution: How to flash InsydeH2O EFI under DOS enviroment - Lenovo Community I have done every step but unfortunately it doesn't work. After i boot my pendrive i can see this screen: I don't know what else i could do. Please help me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
svl7 Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 I think I know how to solve this. Can you please create a backup of your current BIOS by following the instructions here: http://forum.techinferno.com/lenovo-ibm/2260-lenovo-y580-y480-unlocked-bios-versions.html(only follow the instructions about the backup, DON'T flash anything). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stayinthelight Posted August 8, 2013 Author Share Posted August 8, 2013 Thank You svl7 for your answer! I couldn't download attachments from your link. I created backup for my current bios using BIOS Backup ToolKit V2.0 though (have file LENOVO-5ECN96WW(V9.01).rom). I'm waiting for further instructions.
