• M5-581TG - he must install BIOS - UEFI to Windows 8 (not for updates)?

  I have a M5-581TG. His version of BIOS is 1.12. I found in the support section there is a new version 2.11. Its description says "BIOS - UEFI to Windows 8 (not for updates)". I don't know what that means. I'm not in Windows 8. I am running Windows 7 and soon will be upgraded to Windows 10.

  The question is: should I install BIOS version 2.11? Thank you.

  You cannot mix versions of BIOS.

  BIOS 1.x can be updated only with versions of BIOS 1.x

  BIOS 2.x can be updated only with versions of BIOS 2.x

  not to upgrades, we hear: If your system is windows 7 factory your BIOS is 1.x and may not use the BIOS 2.x versions.

  10 Windows can work also under BIOS 1.x

• ThinkPad E330 cannot enter BIOS/UEFI more

  Hey guys, I got a very annoying problem with my E330.

  He came without OS, so I put 8 Win on the preinstalled HARD drive. Then, I went out for one SSD and put Win 7 on it.
  (all UEFI mode)

  Since then I can not enter in the BIOS/UEFI more press either Enter or F1.
  Pressing enter gives me still a beep, but then Windows continues to load normally instead of view several options, like he used to do.

  And yes I am aware that I need a cold start to Win 8 to enter the UEFI

  The only way to access UEFI at this time is through charms-bar restarting 8 Win in UEFI thing.

  I tried to reflash the BIOS that does not of course because this is the same version, tried to remove the CMOS battery, that gave me an opportunity to enter the UEFI with F1 when he complained the date/hour of time.

  Switching to Legacy only brings me to an infinite PXE - something loop of the error, but I still cannot get into the BIOS.

  I tried pressing all combinations of keys Fn + F and without the Fn. Nothing works.

  I don't want to return the laptop, but it is a deal breaker for me if I can't Win 7 running on this subject with UEFI accessible.

  OK, the problem was solved with the help of the someotherguy of the user from the forum. It has detailed instructions.

  Looks like that install Win 7 mode UEFI corrupts the BIOS.

• Can't see BIOS UEFI more Windows 8 after formatting hard drive

  After formatting my hard drive, I don't see the opportunity to get into the BIOS/UEFI firmware anymore. It has disappeared from the troubleshooting Windows 8.1. It happened because I had to reinstall Windows because I wanted to put Windows on the SSD drive, that I adapted. Firstly tried to transfer files to Windows from the HARD drive that went successfully but my problem was trying to get the HP BIOS so he can start, he had no option as I saw in the other BIOS, select the name of the SSD drive and turn it on just for 1 St boot, (the SSD has been installed properly so she did state in the BIOS on other things and in the windows to) the only thing that he had in this BIOS is a command to start menu I dragged the SSD to the first boot. Windows restarted and it wouldn't boot from SSD yet, so I put it in legacy mode that came to the top with my SSD info to start first, but when I saved these settings and rebooted Windows it says has no disc or can't find windows. So that's how I got where I am now and had to reinstall Windows to get it working again. Can't find away to get the BIOS/UEFI on windows 8 Troubleshooting menu option more?

  Hello

  The way most simple and easiest way to solve your dilemma to use the HP recovery media to build on the SSD system use the same SATA port that is used by the original Windows 8 boot drive. I know that this procedure works, at least on the PC that I used.

  I'm not a fan of 'cloning' of hard disks to boot HP UEFI active.  There are simply too many problems. Using the HP with a SSD recovery holder sized to accept all the original HP recovery system. This includes not user data. Then use your original hard drive as a device of emergency start and space remaining for the storage of data.

• Disabled in BIOS, UEFI cannot now he back on Qosmio X 870

  I bought a 1 TB SSD to replace the disk of 1 TB of system. I disabled UEFI in order to be able to run utilities Hirens to copy the old drive to a new one. This part has been a success, but now when I restart the laptop, it does not start (because he probably wants back UEFI) and I can't get into the BIOS anymore (I tried DEL, ESC, F1, F2, F5, F10, F12, everything else I could think of).

  Basically, all I have to do is somehow get the BIOS and re-enable the UEFI. But I can't access the BIOS! After a reboot, no key don't take me to the BIOS. I immediately get an attempt to make the network boot. If I re - insert the Hirens CD, I can boot from it, but what I really want is to reactivate the UEFI.

  I even tried the recovery disk, but it does not restart the option in the BIOS.

  Anyone help is very appreciated.

  Thank you!

  Hello

  I don t think that changing the mode of UEFI would affect access BIOS

  I think that the SSD upgrade could be the reason why you are unable to access the BIOS
  In any case, the fact is that the F2 button is the right one and you need to press F2 key repeatedly in the line after turning on the device

  You must also remove the SSD and you should try access the BIOS without drive SSD connected very well if it helps but it of certainly worth a try.

• Cannot access the Bios Uefi more on E535

  Hello community,

  I recently bought a new laptop E535, works like a charm so far. Access BIOS was possible by pressing enter directly after machine, that came a kind of JOB analysis which could be ignored by pressing any key and that came a kind of table where I could access Bios by pressing a key (do not remember which it was exactly). Otherwise I could enter Bios when the boot menu by pressing tab, who passed on another tab where Bios could be entered (also a kind of diagnosis of the programs could be launched). As mentioned in the subject, it is impossible for me to do that now, after I did the following:

  -traded integrated with a new (access still possible Bios) SSD HDD

  -changed in the BIOS boot mode, both (legacy + UEFI) in Uefi only (maybe it's the problematic point, but I'm not sure)

  -Installed Windows 7 using Uefi on ssd

  Not when I press on enter on startup it brings me to the Windows boot menu manager (you know where you can say to start Windows normally or in safe mode and so). Menu of startup has also not changed with a new section "starting windows" (finally), but when switch to another tab, it is empty now, no entry for Bios setup or diagnostic tests more.

  It's really bad. I googled around and tried the following until now without success:

  -Pressing F1 instead of entry

  -Portable stop and start with F1 key

  -boot without HDD

  -from HARD drive without amendment, which was originally installed in the laptop (which cannot be started more, probably because it has been installed in legacy mode)

  I also thought about flashing the bios, but the latest version available on the lenovo support seems to be 1.04, but pre installed on my laptop is 1.10, so my version is much more recent. Should I try to still the flash?

  While looking around, I found a post that looks like a lot to my problem, but without any other ideas how to solve this problem except for mail in my machine:

  It seems to be a very rare problem with installing Windows 7 in UEFI mode, thanks to the help of the "someotherguy" forum member I could solve it. Others running into the same problem should contact him directly.

• 2481 - 3SG L530 - first 1.4 GB of RAM of 4 GB 'reserved by material' and now 2.2 GB? Problem BIOS/UEFI?

  Hello

  Using a Thinkpad L530, which becomes a few weeks over a year (-> warranty expired). Running Windows 7 64-bit on it (in BIOS compatibility mode).

  There is, at the same time (cannot say for sure) four months when I installed an update of the BIOS (which jumped several versions), then all of a sudden my resource monitor showed 1.4 GB of memory reserved by the hardware.

  I did some looking and also called the hotline of Lenovo Germany support (because they don't send support) because my unit was still in warranty, at this time, but useful guys might not help me get back memory - the conclusion was that for some reason, that the update of the BIOS must have changed how the integrated graphics card memory is managed intel (size is dynamic). Due to the fact that a downgrade to BIOS was impossible (due to some changes), they also offered to replace the motherboard with an older BIOS revision, but I refused (I have that it will not much help because I need to upgrade the BIOS later anyway, and really, I didn't miss my primary work machine).

  However, yesterday, after having done nothing more to try the different operating system a few live CD and certainly not after installing a new BIOS update or similar, sudden reserved hardware memory was 2.2 GB (I can say 100% certainty that Monday, it was not, since I was unable to resume a VirtualBox VM suspended Monday due to the change of configuration of memory - and to make sure I also was installing drivers) (or updates to the BIOS since Monday).

  So I'm now sure that this problem (and probably also the other I had before) was not caused by an upgrade of the BIOS or changes how Intel's integrated graphics is managed, but more likely a BIOS/Firmware bug.

  Also, the missing memory shows not only in Windows 7, but when I start a live Linux CD or at memtest86 boot.

  So I studied a bit and found out, that if I boot a Linux live CD (which support it) in UEFI mode (with CSM disabled legacy support), suddenly I can reuse many of my 4 GB of RAM. But only here, and I would use it on Windows and not by the re-installation of a license of Windows 8 in UEFI mode...

  Some information that I have collected (such as memory card EFI and card memory at the start of Windows and Linux, and Linux UEFI, screenshots of Windows) is available in this post in another forum: http://superuser.com/questions/746497/what-hardware-device-used-to-eat-up-1-4gb-of-my-4gb-ram-and-no...

  Does anyone have any suggestions

  -How do I know where this memory is gone?

  -Why memory cards so different between boot UEFI and BIOS/CSM

  -How to get the memory (without replacement)

  I heard of many problems UEFI (not only for Lenovo but also other suppliers) is caused by certain invalid EFI variables, is there a way to reset all variables of the EFI on my laptop (I am aware that I may have to reconfigure the boot settings later)? I tried flashing the BIOS (a version at the bottom and back again) and installation by default, or reset settings Secure Boot loading, but that did not help for my problem.

  
  

• How to enter a password for BIOS/UEFI in T420?

  Hello, I need to delete the UEFI supervisor password, I know what it is. The problem is that I can't seem to ask me this password! By pressing the button Thinkvantage + F1 just request the password works, and I am never asked to enter the supervisor password so that I can activate the parameters of VT & VT - d. This is really critical, I can't run VirtualBox without it.

  Can someone explain how to enter? I get to the BIOS settings the wrong way?

  Power off, it starts, enter the supervisor password to power on password prompt.

  I hope this helps!

  Hello.

  I have a S3-391-6497 that came with Windows 7.

  Thank you.

  No, you can't.

  You cannot mix versions of BIOS, so:

  BIOS 1.x can be updated only with 1.x

  BIOS 2.x can be updated only with 2.x

• Unlocking on Satellite A100 BIOS

  Are the BIOS USB unlocking devices listed on ebay any use?

  Best regards

  HI Martin,

  Officially, the only way to get your BIOS password reset must take your laptop to authorized service center which will need to verify your ownership of notebook before feflashing of the BIOS.

  Unofficialy there are various "devices" that claim to reset or bypass the password of the BIOS so that you can access the BIOS Setup panels and also the operating system. You will find instructions for making these devices (involving generally taken cross-wiring and old parallel port) If you search Google for "BIOS Password Reset".

  I know that on some laptops, but are not guaranteed to work on all of them, especially models later these devices.

  Kind regards

• Since the update by Satellite L750 - Win7 for Win10 I lost access to the UEFI BIOS)

  Hello everyone

  Since my upgrade to Windows 10 32 bit Windows 7 32 bit, I am unable to access the BIOS (UEFI).

  I try to access BIOS because I want to do a clean install of Windows 10 64-bit, DVD, or USB key.

  I did the setting-> security update & -> Recovery-> Advanced Startup restart now-> then I clicked on troubleshooting-> Advanced Options-> and I can not find the UEFI (BIOS) settings.

  When I start my computer I lost the option "Press the F2 or F12 key" to access the BIOS.

  Thanks for your help.

  My computer: Satellite L750, PSK2YA-0L0802S

  OK if you are interested in the topic you can try with a facility for testing purposes, but if there are many different issues and problems, I think that you should install the recovery original image again and use your laptop with 'presets' again.

  You can enter the BIOS settings?

  In General, you can try to start the installation of USB if you press F12 on startup and choose USB as a boot device. It works for you?
