I have also tried flashing the latest BIOS again, with the utility that can be downloaded from the Lenovo support site here: http://download.lenovo.com/consumer/mobi...7ww_64.exe and I get this error http://oi61.tinypic.com/1zg6pvq.jpg and after that I have access to the ExtractTemp folder as you can see here http://oi59.tinypic.com/2l9454y.jpg . This one seems to have access to write the bios. Is there a possibility to modify the 62CN97WW.cap file and trick the program into thinking it's a newer version of BIOS so that it will write it?
Or maybe this could work? https://www.bios-mods.com/bios-recovery/...-recovery/
Thanks a lot!
I sent a modified Platform.ini one 96 ver ?!?!
You used original and You got error !!!
You have to modify that file into InsydeFlash folder . . .
Unpack the bios .exe file sing WinRar ver 5.20 or above and find Platform.ini file
then open It using an Txt editor and edit It here :
[Bios_Version_Check]
Flag=2
CheckByBios=0
CheckByBiosErrorMessage="This BIOS file is not allow to flash. The flash process will be terminated."
;This flag is the switch of checking BIOS version.
;Flag default : 2.
; 0 : Don't check rom file version.
; 1 : Check BIOS version.
; When rom file version is older then BIOS, it will display
; a warning message and close application.
; 2 : Depend on BIOS report.
;CheckByBios default : 0.
; 0 : Normal process.
; 1 : It will pass version by IHISI 45h to BIOS and check by BIOS.
; When BIOS return not allow to flash, it will be terminated the process.
; When BIOS allow to flash, it will go ahead and do it's normal process.
; When this flag is enable but BIOS not support, it will skip version check and assume allow to flash.
;CheckByBiosErrorMessage
; default : "This BIOS file is not allow to flash. The flash process will be terminated."
; String : User defined error message when BIOS is not allow to flash this version image.
Change Flag=2 to Flag=0 then save and retry to flash Bios using InsydeFlash tool !
Let me know
