Cannot enter the W530 UEFI Bios (same as T530?)

It seems that I had the same problem that customers have with the T530.

After removing the password from the bios, I have no chance to get into the BIOS.

BIOS version: 1.11 (uefi enabled only)

OS: Windows 8 (x 64)

I tried:

-Remove all drives (mSATA SSD, ODD, HARD drive)

-Press F1 in the Lenovo screen

-Tried all the options in the Windows Start menu

-You press the Enter button to the Lenovo screen

Unfortunately there is an update of the BIOS for the W530. So how I get into the BIOS?

Solution: update the BIOS 2.06. That access to the BIOS is no longer a problem.

    Hello

    The message looks like you tried to boot and install Windows LAN

    If you want to change the boot order, I recommend pressing the F12 key, immediately after that the laptop was turned on!

    A new start menu should appear, then you can choose the reader of CD/DVD (ODD) and a boot device.

    Also by pressing the C button should allow you to boot from the CD inserted, bootable.

  • URGENT! After installing 6 Fusion and creation of new virtual machine with Windows 7, I get a message "VMware Fusion cannot enter the unit". WHAT SHOULD DO?

    After purchase, installation and activation Fusion 6 with the license key, I had a library of VMS showing 2 Boot Camp partitions. It's strange that I only have 1.
    I tried to activate them but received a message that it is out of date in 2 cases. (see annex 1)

    I started a new virtual machine with a Windows 7 installation disc directly on my HD. I have provided a way to do this and followed the instructions of Fusion to the screen.

    Apparently, everything went well and after several restarts, the installation appears to be over (see annex 2) I tried to open and run the installed Windows 7. I had however a window with the following message:

    "Pending the unit.

    "VMware Fusion cannot enter the unit. Please wait until the unit starts automatically, or interact with the virtual machine below. ' (see annex 3)

    Here Windows 7 seems to start but after a while with the home screen and of the Øresund finishing this window closed and open a new window called library Virtual Machine on the left showing the partitions of Bootcamp and the Virtual Machine Windows 7 x 64 and in the middle gray a representation of what is supposed to be the Windows 7 desktop. (see Exhibit 4). When I opened the settings button a window with different setting options pops up. This mark means to me that Windows is installed but the final opening isn't the case

    When you quit Vmware Fusion indeed Windows seems to be close (see part 5)

    What is going on? What has gone wrong? What should I do? I don't know how to solve the problem.

    I should f.i. remove the virtual machine from Windows 7 and is free automatically made partition on my HD as the reboot with the Windows installation disc? or y at - it another way to enter the UNIT?

    Help, please!

    Thanks in advance

    Your virtual machine is running. It is in the unit - which each windows gets its own window of Mac - and you have no application Windows running, there is no visible windows. You can start a Windows application in the start of Fusion menu in the menu bar at the top right, or turn on the Windows task bar on the view menu and start applications from there. Or use the view menu to switch to the Single mode or full-screen, which puts all of your Windows desktop in a window separate from Mac.

    You do not have two partitions to Boot Camp on your Mac, you have two virtual machines named "Boot Camp partition".

    The message about it being unable to enter the unit arrives while the merger is pending for the tools begin to run, because the tool is necessary for the unit.

  • ThinkPad 13 - cannot enter the UEFI BIOS without entering the W10 first

    I have a brand new 13 Thinkpad which I'm really pleased.  However, the user manual seems to be wrong.  I can't enter the UEFI BIOS in F1.

    It seems that the only way to get into the BIOS is first go to W10 and make a shift/reboot or a restart/F1.

    OK, suppose that at some point in the future I need to access the BIOS (ex: changing boot options) and is not a job W10 or perhaps corruption W10.)

    How to enter BIOS without first W10? BIOS maybe consulted independent of the operating system?

    Hello and welcome,

    It is by design.  "Shutdown" in Win 10 more resembles the hibernation and it is not safe change hardware/BIOS setup in this State.

    F1/F12/ENTER should be available after a boot failure or a forced shutdown via a long press on the power button.

    BTW, UPDATE/restart and restart should just do the same thing. SHIFT button should cause a real stop after a followed Fx market should work.

    Hi Ivor,

    1. you receive messages or error codes when you try to start in normal mode?

    2. did you of recent changes on the system?

    Usually, you must press a key (for example, F2, F12, DEL, ESC) or a key combination whenever you turn on your computer but before Windows starts. The choice of the function key varies depending on the brand of your computer.

    For more information, you can consult the following article:

    If you are unable to boot into normal mode, then check if you can boot into safe mode and let us know the results to proceed to further troubleshooting.

  • Laserje CP2025n: Cannot enter the secret menu on the printer HP Laserjet CP2025n range

    I need to replace making paper rolls in the printer. I found countless videos and instructions on how to enter the secret menu for ultimatly choose "Pickup rollers" option to block in place. The combination is by pressing the arrow to the LEFT and the red button to cancel at the same time which should then display "2ndary Service" option Menu.

    I'm doing something wrong? Is it because it's a CP2025n and not a CP2025?

    So instead of building and now their whole (which is what most sites say) you must keep LEFT and hit CANCEL it once everything by letting go of the LEFT.

    (* 1) * my knowledge the CMOS battery is soldered to the motherboard and cannot be replaced like for example on desktop PC
    (* 2) * remove the CMOS battery would NOT reset the BIOS nor would be to remove the passwords.

    If I understand your problem, you are not able to access the BIOS, but you can start the laptop and the system. Is this correct?

    You have a kind of password (user / supervisor password?)

  • Satellite C660-1tim: - cannot enter the BIOS due to the fast start feature

    Hello.
    I activated the quick start function that ignores the Logos and boots only from the HARD drive, but I can't enter or reset the Bios.

    I tried every combination of buttons, I can think.
    Power on + F2 does not work.
    F1, F10, F12, del, ESC, INS - all do not work

    Set BIOS to day 1, 50-win.
    Help, please.

    Hello

    To access the BIOS, you must turn on the unit first (press the power button) and immediately press the F2 key. You can press F2 repeatedly in the line to make sure that the button has been pressed.

    By the way: the Toshiba HWSetup is preinstalled on most Toshiba laptops.
    This utility provides the BIOS options and settings. So, you can change the boot order by using this tool also. You can find it in Toshiba Assist-> tab optimize

  • Cannot, enter the BIOS with the F1 key.

    Hello

    I tried to install Mac OS X recently (10.7 Lion on Chameleon 2.1 RC1 16xx with iCloud patch), and the installer crashed. Now when I boot my ThinkPad I press ENTER to display the boot options. When I click on F1 or F12 ThinkPad not responding when I press enter or ESC, it will do what it must do.

    I've got "CMOS reset" error after restarting after the failure of the attempt to install Mac OS X. I know that sometimes, Mac is reset CMOS (I have a PC with Mac and it works well).

    I can boot Windows 7, but I can't the configuration of the BIOS.

    I had the supervisor password (I remember ), maybe that's the problem.

  • Drive 1 not found, cannot enter the bios or boot menu.

    I hope you guys can help me with a problem. I have a workstation t5400. A few days ago it stopped booting. I get a disk 0 not found: Serial ATA, Sata 0. On the bios boot screen, I can hit f2 and it says its set of entry towards the top but just goes back to the drive not found error. I tried to change the cables, tried plugging the drive into another port (which I do not know is actually activated because I can't get on the bios). I know for a fact that the drive works. I replaced the motherboard battery. I wouldn't be able to get into the bios without any installed readers?

    Any help would be a life saver. Thank you

    Morgan.

    Thank you. I unplugged all readers but that did not work at first. It took me ten minutes to realize I should probably remove the battery for a second. I finally had no error! messages and means able to enter setup. All disks have been disabled. That makes sense to me because 0 is enabled by default and it wouldn't give me a not found error if the port has not been activated and that I should still be able to access at least bott settings.

    Anyway, problem solved. Thanks for the help. I still want to know why he messed up.
