[Old Hardware BIOS PXE] Lenovo X201 PXE Flash ROM Borked, trying to restore, ideas?

$
0

Couldn't find a BIOS support area, and this is not a MOD....more of a repair inquiry, hope this is the right area to inquire.

I have an old by everyone's standards Lenovo X201 laptop, was running Win10, no issues. One thing I noticed was that the Ethernet card Intel 82577LM had a Code 10 out of nowhere. Nothing fixed it, other drivers, switch to win 11. Thought hardware was borked and time to toss. I didn't do any updates like BIOS or drivers, so it was odd to suddenly see the Code 10. From what I've read on multiple pages, this doesn't seem to be uncommon as others have seen the same....good lord.

Installed Win7 since I couldn't find new Win10 x64 drivers for it and noticed that with Lenovo drivers, it worked, reported 1Gbps link proving hardware was ok. Ran speed tests, all good. So hardware is good.

Back to win10, still code 10. For some reason after reading pages on the web, many said to check the BIOS settings to see if that may fix it, so I enabled Boot Option ROM in the BIOS and blamo, the issue that was masked suddenly showed itself, now getting a Boot Agent Error (v1.5.31) on boot, nothing earth shattering, just that it can't boot PXE.

Long story short, I used intel boot utility tools and the utility BOOTUTILW64E.EXE from the PREBOOT toolchain, it basically stated NO FLASH FOUND. From images from the web, if PXE ROM was present, the tool would show the PXE FLASH image present. So it seems the LAN ROM is borked.

So running the command BOOTUTILW64E.EXE nic=1 -defcfg fixed the Code 10 immediately and now in Win10/11 the Ethernet works as expected. Link shows 1Gbps, driver from MS is good....in "that domain" all is good.

So the last item is to try and get the PXE image restored back into the NIC and fix the boot agent and Option ROM installed.

From everything I've read, being a laptop, it says that the OEM (Lenovo) BIOS update images should "update" the BIOS and the ECP controller and I/O's, things like the peripherals like the NIC ROM which contains the Intel Boot Agent. It has been stated that it can't be directly updated even if I had a valid PXE ROM.

I've tried for it update it by going all the way back to first BIOS FLASH to see if it would update the LAN Option ROM:

https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/do...32...p-thinkpad

I've tried 1.12, 1.31, 1.39, 1.40, and the 1.40-1.15/1.15 just to see if I could have it trigger an update to the ROM and put back the PXE boot image. None of it worked.

I'm trying to speak to Lenovo in the software group, but got disconnected, but will continue to try.

I will never use this feature, and I can turn off the error (Boot Agent Error) via the bios by turning off the option ROM, but this is more of an exercise as to learning how to fix this because I am the type that wants it to be 100%.

Anyone have any ideas on short of removing the bios chip and replacing it with one from ePay and then having to use their (Lenovo) maintenance disk to rebuild the UUID and serial number flashing which is a "final" resort if I can't find a software solution.

I don't want to trash this laptop, I use it as a backup for my travels, and the hardware is good, so please keep that in mind if you have a suggestion.

Thanks in advance for any thoughts or advice.

Bios Mod UUID + Serial Change (insyde)

Hello, I got a locked insyde bios for an an acer nitro 5 (AN515-54) the bios mods are all specific to the user so there isn't a one mod fit all file making it hard to modify. In my case, im trying to change my motherboards UUID and serials, but my tools can't write to the SMBIOS because presumably it is locked. Would there be a bios mod one could make that would enable an insyde tool to write to SMBIOS from windows at any time?

[HOW-TO] LG Gram 14Z970 Phoenix BIOS Strings extract

Request solved - here is the How-To:
I found out how to extract the strings: Releases · BoringBoredom/UEFI-Editor (github.com)

Open the bios in UEFITool. Press CTRL + F and perform a Text search for any known BIOS setting name. Double-click the reference to the section at the bottom, right-click the section (usually under Setup) and press Extract as is....

Convert the extracted file with IRFExtractor. Rename the output to a.txt, move it to the folder containing this script and run it.


This was my Request:
Quote:Hi,

I have an issue with the 20V 2.25A DC requirements of my Laptop:

If an external Monitor is connected and battery is charged, a 30W charger is sufficient to provide 20V 1.5A

But if you do not use an external Monitor, the DC input will go over 2A for a split second.

This behavior makes it impossible to use a lightweight 30W charger, even if the device isn't actually pulling 30W. The initial request makes all my 30W adapters go on and off repeatedly.

I would like to know if there is any option in the hidden menus of the bios file which may could affect the behavior of the DC plug.

The USB-C plug is not usable, it only accepts 18W over Power delivery. And even worse, if your PD charger has PPS, the laptop gets confused during PD negotiation and will not take any power over USB-C at all.
So I have to intentionally search for USB-C PD chargers which don't have PPS to get at least 18W.
I don't think we can patch this, so I bought an PD Trigger which negotiations for 20V and this little trigger device can be plugged into the DC port. But my 30W adapters can not handle this. Only the heavy 45W adapters work Sad
But as soon as I connect an external Display, it accepts 30W adapters.

I hope you have better tools than me and have some time to help me with an extract of the hidden menus, because searching through with a hex editor is painful and doesn't expose the possible select options.

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3750H
GPU: NVIDIA GTX 1660 Ti Max-Q
RAM: 16 GB
CURRENT BIOS VERSION: F.15 Rev. A

Hello! I would like to unlock the BIOS on this laptop since I want to lock frequencies to 3000 MHz to make this laptop not to boost to 4Ghz cause it's heating up to 103 C. I repasted it a lot of times, cleaned it - no luck.
Disabling turbo-boost in Windows control panel, setting maximum processor state to 99% makes this laptop run NOT at the stock frequency which is 2.3 GHz, for some reason it makes it run at 1.7 GHz which is really low and games run like a crap at this frequency.
So I would like to know if it's possible to unlock BIOS on this laptop. I would be really grateful if you help me with that.
