Modified BIOS? Lenovo think it's a gateway!

Help, please

My hard drive in my x61s died and I can't find my backup media. I took a hard drive from a laptop Gateway spare (run vistsa) and install it in my x61s. I updated windows instalation setting original factory, while he was in my lenovo. It starts up fine, but now my computer thinks it's a gateway! What I cnange the Bios so it starts as a Lenovo, or what? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! BTW, it is not an optical drive in the X61s.

1 million thanks!

You can try to uninstall all the tools bridge, then run ThinkVantage System Update on it.

There may be some cosmetic modifications minor bridge made to the stock of the OS to make it 'Gateway', but should not be a problem.

    When I plug it on, I get around 80-90 FPS boost.

    I did research in many forum and allowed for some people that they have updated the BIOS.

  • Password bios Lenovo B50

    Hi, I work in a school and one of our students has managed to put a bios password on one of our new laptops of Lenovo b50-80. Start the laptop, bios application "password disk HARD security." We're not sure how Flash the bios to reset it - how can we do this? We have tried to remove the CMOS battery and took the laptop apart to see if there are jumpers, but there isn't.

    Any help would be great. Thank you

    I was hoping you'd be able to boot into recovery mode using the "Novo" button located on the right side, near the USB port. With the help of this button to start the laptop should put you in recovery mode (recovery of key) that is integrated with most of the units.

    If this does not work, the only two choices are to recover the password set by the individual or have the computer repair at a local authorized store.

    Go further, setting a master password for the BIOS entry may be something that you should look at. I suggest to download the user guide / manual and reading on the password levels available service. -IMO contacting parents and informing them that they would be responsible for the costs repair / replace the notebook can also be something useful - your call.

    Good luck.

  • password bios Lenovo G570

    I put a supervisor password and a password of user for a G570, Lenovo laptop, running an INSYDEH20 BIOS. Later, I decided to exclude the passwords, so I went into the Setup, press F2 and I chose clear password (something like that). Now when I turn on my laptop, the message "Enter Current Password" appears. I put my old password... "invalid password", just press ENTER. "invalid password". I have not forgotten the password, I just wanted to remove the password and now I don't know what is happening. How should I do for that matter?

    The problem has been resolved. I have been using the numeric keypad and when I put the password I used the figures in "regular keyboard. I didn't know it's the difference in the number 9, for example, by using the numeric keypad and the "regular" keyboard

  • Slow Bios Lenovo E545

    Hi, I am currently facing trouble with my Thinkpad E545 and wonder if you could help me.

    My system is dualboot with Windows 10 and Kubuntu 16.04LTS, a few months ago, I noticed, how my boot time increased, even late in the notfication of keyboardactions when im in bios/grub. Once charged, Linux and Windows, work very well.

    To determine the problems I run Lenovo-System-Diagnosticstool to Windows, no worries be detected. Later I concluded he woul is best to reinstall my system, so I recently installed Windows and Linux, but the slow start and the Bios remain. I replaced my HD with an SSD and reinstalled everything from scratch - no change.

    I also cleaned my laptop from the inside and update the Bios to the version recently.

    Today, I ran the Test bus in the Bios motherboard, telling me of WHAT CSCS Test failed:

    ResultCode: UMB003002-RL7WHM

    A quick www search tells me, that maybe the cmos battery - is a good idea. Now my questions:

    I'm wrong: should I replace the battery?

    The battery has a special plug, or could I use anyone who may be on amazon etc.

    Is there something more I can do to diagnose the problem?

    Hello and welcome,

    I can't solve your primary question.

    The battery has a special fitting, but it seems to be available from multiple sources.

    Hi NiTrO!

    There is no default password BIOS. It looks like you already tried erasing the power on password. Password BIOS appear not just came out of nowhere. Your choice is either get/remind the password, or replace the motherboard.

  • Lenovo Think Pad T520: Officejet 4500

    Printer works fine when it is connected with a USB cable.  However, after a recent update of Windows 10 Wireless does not work.  I tried every fix, I can imagine, turn off everything, check settings on printer wireless (all are correct).  I followed the steps in the center of HP solutions, without success in the event of a problem.  I noticed that after the changes my computer is more in default to Adobe Reader as favorite PDF reader.  I had to go an manually change this setting.  I'm afraid that the update has changed something or the default value to a certain type of cloud of printing.  All the printer software are up to date.  All the computer software are up to date (which may be the problem).

    As I said I can print via USB cable but want to print via a wireless connection.  Wireless connection works well on all other devices, the BlackBerry 2 and the other stuff.

    Welcome to the HP community @kuznets,

    I came across your post about your printer Officejet 4500 with some wireless printing problems after upgrade to Windows 10. I'll be happy to help you.

    Try the following steps:

    Cannot print after upgrading

    After you upgrade your computer to Windows 10, are more able to print on the printer. Follow these steps to resolve the problem and then print again.

    This isn't Adobe Reader. Most likely, your resulting PDF files associated with another application (it looks like the Windows Photo Viewer).

    I have a Gateway DX4870-UR10P desktop computer, with Windows 7 Home Prem 64-bit.
    The bios is originally shipped in 2012.

    I want to run Windows 8.1 PRO 64-bit - disk a hard nine separate. And keep Win 7 on the original hard drive. I probably will add 10.1 Win or above on a drive partition in the future. BTW, I run the Hyper-V virtualization in Win 8 other (Windows XP, Linux).

    Gateway BIOS - UEFI for P11 Windows 8 (not for updates). B1

    If I update the Bios to P11. B1, continue to support Win 7?  In addition, win 10?
    Is P11. B1 correct to use bios? Did anyone see any issues, "traps", config problems?

    Thank you.

    You can update only to this:
