Hi, I have a problem with my Lenovo X260 - I read the BIOS but have managed to erase the chip...
The BIOS is Winbond 25Q128FV, the motherboard FRU 00UP190.
Does anyone have access to a BIN file of the BIOS that I could flash back please? I realise this might not work - but the computer will not work with an erased BIOS so I don't care!
A BIOS with the WWAN/WiFi whitelist removed would be great
Many TIA!

Hi
I didn't quite understand, did you save the dump?
No, that's the problem! I only worked out how to successfully read the chip when I had erased it... (I know, I am an idiot...)
So I can now reliably program the chip but I don't have a BIOS dump to program. That's why I would really appreciate any X260 BIOS dump...
As I say above, I realise there is no guarantee it would work - but a blank BIOS as it is now, will certainly not work!
Thanks for the reply...

Could someone remove any whitelist from this X260 bios please ? I'd like to install a WAN card I already have.
For those who could be discouraged by posts stating that the bios chip is located at the back of the motherboard and is WSON packaged, on my machine, bios chip was located on the front, and was SOIC.
