Lenovo B590 Notebook, 20206. Bios update.

Hello! I bought a laptop Lenovo B590, 20206. There are problems when updating the BIOS. The system is the next version: BIOS Type Phoenix EFI BIOS Version H9ET69WW (1.06 ) System BIOS Date 11/15/2012 There is an updated BIOS H9ET12WW (h9uj01us.exe 1.12-1.08) on the site. http://download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc/pccbbs/mobiles/h9uj01us.bld
However, it is not stitched.

I dont think that BIOS is compatible with your laptop..

HP Notebook System BIOS Update (AMD Processor)

Hello,
I was looking through my updates and everything to make sure my computer is working to it's fullest. I noticed there was a recommended update that I should follow through with which is the HP Notebook System BIOS Update (AMD Processor), and I've download it and installed it, then afterwards, my computer told me that I had to restart it, which I did. I agreed to update it but it keeps popping up in the suggested updates and I've tried multiple times to do it. It never seems to work!
Please help.

Here is a direct link to the F.36 BIOS which is the latest. Have you tried downloading it and manually launching it rather than using the HP Update utitlity?
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-135428-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en...
Make sure you have a charged battery and AC plugged in. Let us know what happens.
You might also try going into the BIOS (F10) as you power up and check the existing BIOS version. You may already have F.36.

New BIOS firmware for B590 Notebook (20206)

Hello.
Where can I find new BIOS firmware for B590 Notebook (model 20206)? support.lenovo.com provides an earlier version (08 Oct 2012), but I need at least the same as in the notebook now (15 Nov 2012).
Just wait for a new firmware becomes available at lenovo.com?
How can I find out when it will happen or whether happen at all?
Or at least how to save the current BIOS? Preferably by regular means. It looks like Lenovo utility can only update (and reported that the installed firmware is fresher).
Thanks.

Still nothing. Is there any hope?

G42-230us notebook automatic bios update failure

Last month my HP g42-230us laptop started an automatic HP update to the BIOS. I did not request this to happen, it just started. Afterward, the computer shut off and did not restart like it said. So, I pressed the start button and it starts up and once Windows starts to load, it turns off. I have tried the Win + B as suggested in other discussions. I tried this and the HP BIOS UPDATE goes through the entire process of "Writing new BIOS Image." It goes through all 512 blocks. Then it verifies the BIOS image through all 512 blocks. I receive the System Bios Recovery is Complete; however, when it tries to restart, it just shuts off. I wait and nothing occurs. I press the start button and I'm back to the computer shutting off right when Windows starts to load. I have tried the WIN + B with the battery in and without (as suggested in other forums.) My HDD is fine because I was able to pull the files off of it using a SATA adaptor. I'd appreciate any assistance that someone could give me to try and get the computer back up and running

Vishal_g42 you would have to check with support in your area for your warranty options. It seems unlikely they will extend your warranty on a malfunctioning product, until it was proved to be functional again.

Hi Amit,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
I’m sorry to hear that your G580 Laptop is not booting to Windows after updating the BIOS, I suggest you to Access the BIOS and change the “SATA Controller mode” to resolve the issue, below are the steps to change the settings:
To enter BIOS setup utility, press F2 when the Lenovo logo appears on the screen while the computer is starting up.
Now under “Configuration” Tab click on SATA controller mode and change the option to “Compatible”.
Now press “F10” Key then YES to save the changes made in BIOS.
The computer will automatically re-start, check the issue.
Do post us back if the issue still persists.

Lenovo B590 - Odd "Icon" After Update

Hello,
After updating a friends computer, I have a new "icon" that I can't get rid of. I upgraded the memory & ran all the Windows & Lenovo updates. Pictures below.
The "icon" is on top of everything I open. Desktop, web pages, files, etc. Clicking, or right clicking on it, has no effect. It doesn't seem to do anything, but is in the way because it is on top of everything that we are trying to do.
I assume this a Lenovo "icon", because I have never seen it in Windows before. I uninstalled the new memory, just to make sure that wasn't the problem & it wasn't. I have gone through all the Lenovo applications & nothing jumps out at me. But not knowing what I am looking for makes it hard to figure out.

I'm sure it is an easy setting adjustment, I just can't figure it out & I don't want to give it back like this.
The OS is Windows 7 Professional 64-bit.

Solved!

OK, Got it figured out. It is a number lock icon. Fixed by going to monitor properties & adjusting the on screen display settings. Must of defaulted to "always show indicator" when updating the video drivers from the Lenovo site. I don't know why you would ever want this. I hope others are able to figure this out easier than I was. Thanks

Lenovo B590 discharge battery when off

Good morning, I've experienced very annoying problem with Lenovo B590 Laptop (20206 with HM70 chipset). Laptop discharges a battery (about 10% per 24h) when it's off (power off or hibernate).
I disabled:
- WAKE ON LAN settings in BIOS
- Wake on * in network adapter properties (LAN and WLAN).
- Allow this device to wake the computer (LAN, WLAN, Bluetooth)
Only option I found so far - eject battery for a second after power off. In such case, no discharge occurs.
I really appreciate, if you can help me with this issue.
Thank you!

Hi rinkar,
Thanks for posting and welcome to the Lenovo Community,

Lenovo G 500s Insyde bios brick looking for right filename for biosdata to recovery

Hey,
as you can read in the subject, ich bricked my bios V2.02 when i tried to flash a whitelist-free-bios to my notebook Lenovo G 500s.
Before i tried to update bios, i made a backup of my current bios in .rom format.
I used Andy's tool to get the right filename, the tool gave out: "VILG1X64.F?"
Then I copied the biosfile to a usb stick with activity-led several times with dirrefent filenames and fileendings:
VILG1X64. fd/rom/bin/bi
VILG1X64. fd/rom/bin/bi
VILG1X64. fd/rom/bin/bi
VILG1X64. fd/rom/bin/bi
VILG1X64. fd/rom/bin/bi
VILG1X64. fd/rom/bin/bi
1X64. fd/rom/bin/bi
VILG. fd/rom/bin/bi
Anybody with the same notebook, who knows which filename i need? Which file-ending is the right?
Some Info:
I also tried to use the .rom file from lenovo's .exe file bios update from official download centre.
Thank you!

Hi, I have an x120e and when I get into the BIOS > Startup > Boot, I see the following list:
Boot Priority Order
1. ATA HDD0 Samsung SSD 830 Series (my main disk)
2. USB HDD SanDisk Cruzer Fit (a tiny usb drive that is always attached and holds assorted files)
3. USB CD
4. USB FDD
5. PCI LAN
The device can indeed boot from a USB stick. I think you will have to follow this order of events: first attach the USB you want to boot from, yet boot only from your main hard drive, to let the system recognize the attached USB drive and put it in the Boot Priority Order list, then shutdown, restart and get into BIOS. F1: to either to change the ordering in the list to put USB FDD or USB HDD SanDisk first) or F12 (I think): to choose a temp device to boot from. Or....... (another thought), the USB you want to boot from hasn't yet been made "bootable" (I think you may have to go into diskpart > etc to set it active) so isn't recognized in BIOS.
I've used a USB flash drive with my recovery partition on it to restore to factory state. That was also a Sandisk Cruzer USB. I've also booted directly into a WinPE sort of environment using another bootable USB made for the purpose of restoring from system images. Mine is an x120e; your x121e can't be much different.
Cheers!

I just bought more Ram how do I check for bios updates before I install it?

I purchased 2 4GBs 200 PIN DDR2 of memory from Crucial to upgrade my Pavillion notebook dv4t 1400 from 4 to 8 gbs
Series (DDR2) ( p/n NS244AV)
I'm running Win 7 Ultimate 64bit service pack 1
The directions say I need to check for bios updates with the maufacturer to see if I need to flash the bios before I install the new memory. How do I do that?
thank you for your help
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Please see "Updating the BIOS" to determine the current BIOS version installed and how to update the BIOS if needed. Please see the HP Pavilion dv4t-1400 CTO Entertainment Notebook PC Drivers & Downloads page for the most current BIOS version available for your computer.

X301 won't start after BIOS update

Hi all:
Well I've had my new x301 for about 2 months and it's given me nothing but troubles....Recently I found out my laptop won't come back on from hibernation (when you close the screen and open it up). So I downloaded and installed the lastest updates from Lenovo (including the recent BIOS update), restart computer, only to find out it doesn't start up anymore...black screen, thinkadvantage blue botton doesn't light up, no harddrive activity, only light on is battery and power...
I'm thinking maybe something went wrong with the BIOS update. Is there anything I can do to fix it (besides shipping this thing to a repair center which is a big hassle, or paying $200 for an on-site tech that might or might not solve the problem).
Any help is appreciated.

Hello all
I just updated my X301 (2776LEG) with the 3.12-1.05 bios. Now my laptop won't start up when running on battery, it powers on for a short while and powers off again. This cycling keeps on going (after 30min I switched it off!) but as soon as i connect the power adapter it boots fine. Seems like this bios update f****ed up the battery power part of the computer....
I tried the bios battery trick but it only worked on the first boot and after that the same problem is present.
I have added 2gigs extra memory and a ultrabay battery and it has been working 100% for about a year now. This error started right after the bios update...
Thought that a reflash of the bios would solve the problem but i cannot reflash the bios with the same bios version...
Any ideas ?
Kind regards
Tommy

Thinkpad Yoga BIOS Update Problem after installing Windows 10

Hi all, I've been reading tonnes of threads here trying to solve my problems (which seem to keep getting worse) to no avail. I'm reaching out to anyone that can suggest some help before I end up bricking my yoga by accident or running it over on purpose. I'll give you a timeline of the events. The machine in question is a Lenovo Thinkpad Yoga 12.5" 20CD-0032USIntel Core i5 4200U 1.60GHz Processor4GB Ram128GB SSDWindows 8.1 64 Bit preloaded (recently upgraded to Windows 10) So the saga begun just a short two days ago. I had some spare time at home and decided to download and install my free upgrade to Windows 10. I backed up all of my important documents etc to OneDrive as I intended on performing a clean install. Said clean install went flawlessly with Windows 10 installing the first time with no issues or errors. Since I had performed a clean install, all my previous apps, including the stock Lenovo apps, had been deleted. I had anticipated this and only really desired to reinstall the app that automatically adjusts the screen orientation when folding the cover back. So in an effort to find this app and any Windows 10 related updates that may be available I went to support.lenovo.com and used the handy Lenovo Bridge app to automatically detect my hardware and suggest relevant updates. While combing through the suggested software I noticed a BIOS update that noted added support for Windows 10. How great, I thought, that Lenovo would have a BIOS update ready so quickly once 10 became ready for mass consumption. I went ahead and downloaded the exe version (not the bootable CD due to the lack of CD drive on the Yoga) and ran the BIOS update. As I ran the update the laptop was plugged in, and no errors were presented, a success message appeared and indicated a reboot was necessary, after a couple seconds the system rebooted itself. Enter nightmare level 1. As soon as the system rebooted, I fired up IE about to look for more updates and......BSOD stating that there was and issue with a driver, after another reboot BSOD again with a completely different file name stating driver file missing or corrupt. Sorry I didn't write any of the file names or errors down. At this point I'm thinking that something is not jiving here between the BIOS and OS. So I tried running repair, and recovery and each time I would end up with a BSOD of some design. It was at this point I made a USB with the Windows 10 x64 ISO from Microsoft in an attempt to run the repair utilities from the USB. Again to no avail. Enter nightmare level 2 After attempting multiple tries at recovering Windows 10 and getting multiple BSOD's through the process I decided to use my Windows 10 USB to simply reformat my hard drive to eliminate any traces of my now apparently corrupt OS and do a fresh install of Windows 10. This appears to have been a significant error on my part. Now I have no OS (BIOS is still intact so at least I think I have a not-bricked motherboard) and everytime I try to boot Windows 10, or 8.1 for that matter, from a brand new USB stick I get constant BSOD's.Sometimes I get as far as the Preparing installation files 22% but am interrupted by a BSOD error at some point. So I am pleading for some help here. To me it seems like the BIOS update was the issue. I was not smart enough to have checked the BIOS version before updating so that I would know what to roll back to safely. What would you all recommend for a rollback and how do I go about doing one with no OS on the machine. I know I'm asking for a tl;dr here but appreciate any advice offered. I really dont want to get to nightmare level 3, which I guess would be a bricked laptop and a bill for a new motherboard or laptop. The BIOS I currently have is GQET45WW (1.25) -Garrett

Thanks for the reply ColonelONeill, It turns out that Lenovo uses an obscure PERL disk image called "eltorito". As such the directions in the link you provided did not work as most common tools (WinZip, 7zip, and WinRAR) cannot extract the image file from an eltorito iso file. I instead just bucked up for a $50.00 Asus USB CD drive and burned the iso for version 1.25 and 1.24 onto discs. I then disabled the setting in the BIOS that prevents rolling back to a previous version and flashed to 1.24 from the disc. While this appeared to go successfully, as soon as I tried to boot from my Windows 8.1 CD I start receiving BSOD's again during installation. I then used the CD with 1.25 to go back to where I was in case it was simply a bad BIOS update at the time. Most of the BSOD's are driver related (qlfcoei.sys) which I don't understand since there is no OS other than what is on the bootable CD (or USB I've tried both) Is there anyone with a stable install of Win 8.1 x64 or 10 x64 running on a 20CD0032US that can tell me what version of BIOS they are running? My next step is to go back to a version that someone else can verify is working. Thanks again for any help.

IdeaPad U260 official bios update freezes computer

My IdeaPad U260 stopped charging battery. It just say "plugged in, not charging". I tried new battery - no change. I tried different charging cable - no change. I tried new windows 8.1 - no change. Now I would like to try to update bios, as some forums on internet suggests. So I installed back my original windows home premium x64 and downloaded from lenovo support utility for bios update for U260 windows 7 x64.
And it does not work! it unpacks some files and then freezes whole computer. So please, would you be so kind as to guide me how to update bios on my U260 win 7 home premium x64?

Hi Dottore,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
I’m sorry to hear that the Battery is not getting charged in your U260 Laptop even after re-installing the OS Operating System) also checking with the other new battery the issue persists, as the BIOS update is not installing. This issue will occur if and only if the BIOS update is installed in normal user profile and not the Administrator user profile please let me know if you are using the “Normal User Profile” or “Administrator Profile”.
If you are using the administrator profile and the issue is same, install the driver by right clicking on the downloaded BIOS update file and select “Run as administrator” option.
Do post us back if the issue persists.

Or will be no change for that?
Thanks

W520 and new bios update

I saw lenovo released the new bios update for the W520 and it says they updated the cpu microcode. Does that mean it will accept Ivy Bridge CPU's?
Also what is your thought on W500 laptops in today's world? Are they worth hanging onto for anything or basically obsolete. I have 7 of them with the 1920x1200 resolution screen and 4 gb ram, would they be able to run the newer versions of autocad and catia?

no the W520 doesn't accept Ivy Bridge CPU.
The W500 run AutoCAD and Catia, but would be very slow if you have many parts. So if you are using the W500 for work, then you should consider upgrading.
