London Lenovo reliable Service - Bios serial No. Update. Help
I recently bought via ebay a X 220 Tablet described as factory re-built (and I think it is). It works and everything would be fine, except that the BIOS is not a serial number and the number of the machine. These none of the drivers, downloads and dignostics will register on the machine that the research shows that these figures have questioned the pilot missing settles.
I have contacted the seller and I try to create the factory re-furbish details and go this way to see if I can get the back numbers but I think that I can not and the only way is to get a new motherboard installed and make sure that information is installed this time.
I contacted the technical support of Lenovo who cannot help you because there is no guarantee (neither series/product number).
Two things: -.
If anyone can help with the details of a service agent in London (South/West) reliable that exists and can help. The two officers that Lenovo Tech gave me could not help on the X220T or were "not available".
Or is anyone know of a technical solution/person/service that can help - work via the Lenovo Web site is not very productive.
Thank you very much
Yes, the Committee has its own serial number and this is what is needed in the bios.
Without a serial number of machine, it raises the question of why the jury was changed in the first place? Why was the machine serial number and removed model number? This label has not just dissipate. It is not any OEM that I know that works on any machine that does not have a serial number.
If the device has been damaged and the Board of Directors and the bottom of the case had to be replaced, then the bottom of the original case must have been included in the sale. Maybe it was an oversight, perhaps not. There is some responsibility involved in a repair if it wasn't. I had to replace a low case several times and I still spent some time scratching this label with a razor blade and attach it to the new deal. Anyone reputable service would do the same thing.
I'm sorry to have to go through this for a good machine.

Re: Satellite P850 sets a BIOS password after update BIOS 1.50
Hi all
I have a Satellite P850/040 and after the BIOS update to the new version 1.50 I checked that a BIOS password has been set up, if I can start the operating system.
It's amazing. I am very disappointed with Toshiba.
How can I remove this password? Perhaps with no matter what JCMOS rider?
Thanks in advance.
> How can I remove this password? Perhaps with no matter what JCMOS rider?
Unfortunately, something like this will not work. Best thing you can do now is to contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help.You shouldn't be disappointed. I know it's stupid situation but make a call, explain the situation and the guy will help you.
You will find the phone number?

If the OEM license is tied to the BIOS, the BIOS can be updated without problems?
I think to update my Vista 64 bit on windows 7 laptop. I was reading the Ant on the differences between OEM and full, and in a post, it said that the OEM license is tied to the BIOS serial #. Is it a serial number of the equipment of a firmware #. What would happen if you fast a new BIOS revision?
Thank you
a preinstalled OEM SLP key should interact with the slic table in bios in order to activate itself. You can update the bios without negative consequences as long as you get the bios that is appropriate for your machine.
An OEM system builder license does not use the slic table.Computers, which are built by large manufacturers provided with pre-installed Windows are supplied with 2 two product keys:
(A) OEM SLP: this key comes pre-installed in Windows, when it comes to the factory. This key is designed to work with the special instructions isn't on the hardware of this manufacturer. Then, when Windows was installed using the OEM SLP (in factory) Windows 7 key leans on the motherboard and he sees special instructions and activates. (that's why you had no need to turn on your computer after you brought it home)
(B) SLP COA: it's the product key that you see on the sticker on the side (or at the bottom, [or in the battery compartment]) of your computer. It is a valid product key, but must be used only in certain situations (for example, if the OEM SLP key stops automatic activation for a reason any). The key must be activated by phone. (Note: all manufacturers that use the SLP OEM system are bound by contract to include a certificate of Authenticity sticker (COA), which has a COA SLP key, on the computer)

You are right!!! If it is not broke, don't fix it! But to be honest, I did not play any Blue Ray DVD on my computer, so if a problem exists with the current firmware of the device I need to do? or just curiosity, I'm sorry I lose you, update/upgrade uses the drivers to recommend running the operating system preinstalled in this case Windows Vista?
If problems exist, then try to upgrade with the appropriate firmware listed in the driver version Vista.
Some of the improvements will work and others cannot. It is unfortunate but it is like that between Vista and Windows 7.
But... If everything works well, change the drivers and/or firmware and invite trouble.

registration for the service is missing & windows update does not not in windows 7
I got the error "registration for the service is missing or corrupted" when I used the diagnostic download bits of one of your answers to someone else. I can't download the updates of windows from 08/10/16 - the latest downloads on 08/02/16. I did a full scan with McAfee & there is no problem in that. Given that the system sought & found these updates 08/10/16, the fan noise has served continuously as in a loop. I managed to stop that noise will 'services.msc', choose 'windows update', by selecting Properties & stop. If I start it again, it seems to go on and on but updates still do not download. I have Windows 7 Home Premium on a laptop. Can you help me?
1. have you ever run the McAfee Consumer products removal tool?
- Fact: McAfee (and Norton) applications are notorious for not not upgrade (or uninstalling) itself. "Leftovers" can be here your troublemaker.
2 - is the same computer - not necessarily the same problem - as in one or more of these previous threads of yours?
