Missing "Intel AMT" option in BIOS Config menu

I'm not sure what that setting is for, but it is missing from the time I bought this laptop. I won't bother returning it just for that, but I wonder why Lenovo chose to remove it.

Good day.
Can you tell us a little more about your system?
Model? BIOS version?
The information may help other members to offer you suggestions or advice.

X201 severely crippled after disabling Intel AMT / AT in BIOS

Hi all,
My X201 has been running great for a number of weeks now, but somehow I managed to pretty much destroy it. Before going to do a fresh install (been trial testing different antivirus packages) I went into BIOS by hitting F1 during boot and disabled Intel AMT and Intel AT. Since these are enterprise features I didn't think I would need them at the house here.
After disabling both and doing a save-and-quit, I got a screen saying something to the effect of "configuration updated" and it rebooted. Except now it takes about 1 full minute to get through POST and hitting F1 takes about 15 seconds before BIOS configuration is shown. Here is what I have observed since disabling AMT and AT...
1) CPU fan is now disabled. The left side of the unit will get so hot it will burn your finger.
2) From main BIOS screen, choosing the "Config" option will cause it to hang and freeze.
3) From main BIOS screen, choosing the "Security" option will no longer show the "Intel AMT" menu option so there seemingly no way to reenable it.
4) Waiting over a minute to get through POST and it will still boot the OS, but even when running Win7 the CPU fan will not enable.
5) During various stages of boot (initial power-on and right after hitting F1 to get into BIOS) the CPU fan will turn on for no more than 2 seconds and then turn back off.
My 2 immediate ideas to fix this haven't panned out...
-- Created a BIOS update CD from the .iso available in the support section. Booting from CD works but it says something to the effect of "BIOS does not been to be updated. Process is cancelled."
-- Googling around I have been unable to find any reference to a jumper on the X201 mainboard to clear CMOS or any reference to a CMOS Clear button.
Has anyone else encountered this problem and knows a fix, or knows how to clear CMOS on the X201? I still have over a year left on the factory warranty but I'd like to fix this myself if I can.

knacky805:
Resetting the CMOS should resolve the issue, if you are comfortable opening your Thinkpad, you can try that. What you'll want to do is unplug the AC adapter, open up the Thinkpad, remove the battery, then the CMOS, press the power button a few times to ensure you drain the capacitors. You can then replace all components starting with the CMOS and it should restore all the default settings in BIOS including the Intel AMT settings.
Please note: Use an electrostatic discharge (ESD) strap to establish personal grounding, If you don't, you can make sure you and the computer are at Zero Potential by continuously touching an un-painted metal surface of the Thinkpad chassis.
Let us know if this solves your problem!

??? I'm kind of confused... As I said I'm using the same board with the same bios and I can see and change 1T/2T.
Thanks for your reply,
Our mainboard are same but our cpu core are different. When I was using Venice everything was ok. Was using my Venice 9*300 with water cooling.
But now I have 3700+ SAN DIEGO .

Where exactly are you trying to find this option in the bios? As Richard said make sure you enabled manual for CPU and Ram settings.
I know where I am looking.
User Config Mode --> [Manual] but there is only "Bottom of 32-bit" , "Read Preamble value" and " Async Latency value".
Quote from: flobelix on 30-January-07, 21:44:59
Please tell us exactly(!) what you changed in Cell Menu (core speed, HT, mem clock and so on), report your CPU model and stepping.
Did you clear cmos after(!) flashing 3.A mod?
After flash I remove my power cable for 1-2 mşnutes than press reset button. During post screen I enter bios to load failsafe defaults. After those steps I try to find what is good/bad with that bios.
Feel free to ask anything that can fix this problem.

Enabling Intel AMT (Active Management Technology)

I have a P67A-G45 and would like to be able to remotely administer my desktop PC with Intel AMT.
I have BIOS 1.A and have installed the latest Intel Management Engine Driver for P67/H67 from the MSI website. In Device Manager, I have Intel(R) Management Engine Interface in System Devices.
I've downloaded Intel SCS, but when I run the wizard, I get the message "This system does not support Intel AMT, and therefore cannot be configured."
There doesn't seem to be any option for Intel AMT in the BIOS.
Is it possible to enable Intel AMT on this board?
Thanks.

Google is your friend if you want to look for answers on your own.
To use AMT:

"AMT Options" missing from HP 2540p BIOS "System Configuration" tab

I used to have an HP Elitebook 2540p Core i5. I recently got a Core i7 version.
The old machine had an "AMT Options" tab that could be used to set options to make it possible to see the AMT MEBx (Management Engine BIOS Extension) at boot time. This is shown in this picture:
My new Core i7 machine is missing this option, as shown here:
I need this option so I can enable the AMT serial-over-lan feature for debugging.
I updated my BIOS from F09 to F50 (the newest) but the option didn't appear. I went to the "Set Security Level" setting which seems to control what stuff is shown and what isn't. But it didn't have an AMT Options option.
Can anyone tell me how to get this option back? All HP Elitebook 2540p should support AMT right? Because this manual seems to indicate it:
http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c02958196.pdf
I also tried doing "Restore Defaults" and "Reset BIOS security to factory default" froim the "File" tab in the BIOS
(Also I tried just hitting ctrl-p repeatedly at boot to try and get into the MEBx but it didn't work
Thanks for any help you can provide (but I know this is a pretty hard/uncommon question)

[W520] Intel AMT missing in BIOS configuration

Hello everyone,
I've been trying to get the Intel Active Management working, but I'm running into some problems trying to enable it.
According to Intel, my CPU supports vPro (http://ark.intel.com/products/50067/Intel-Core-i7-2720QM-Processor-%286M-Cache-2_20-GHz%29) and I can successfully use all the vPro features, except for Intel AMT. Here are my system specifications:
http://i41.tinypic.com/jgs18p.png
My BIOS does have the Intel Management Extensions and I've updated both my BIOS/UEFI and the ME to the latest firmware (1.35 and 7.1.30.1142, respectively). This is the output from MEInfoWin.exe:
http://i41.tinypic.com/2s8s31v.png
The weird thing is that I can access the AMT management interface at http://localhost:16992, but all that is shown is this:
http://i39.tinypic.com/358ny3k.png
The Intel AMT diagnostics tool shows that AMT is supported, but disabled. Here are the results from the tool:
http://ompldr.org/vY2QyYQ/Results.nfo
Does anyone know why this happens? Does my W520 need to be serviced?
Thanks in advance!

@christopherlang
Agreed. I ordered with only one hard drive since I already had a spare only to find out that my motherboard doesn't support RAID.
After some searching a little bit, it seems that Lenovo will include AMT only when configured with an Intel wireless card, which I didn't order since my broken W510 has one. They should really make clear which features are included and which aren't. Honestly, I can't believe they would take the time and effort to make 8 different motherboards just to remove features .
Same as you, other than that, I really like this laptop.

Unable to Enable Intel VT-x Via BIOS Setup: (Option no-longer Available?)

I have been using VMWare Workstation (V9.0.4) with my present motherboard for about 1 year. For no apparent reason, I can no-longer do so, because "Intel VT-x" is not enabled. When I enter the BIOS setup, the option that used to be there to enable "Intel VT-x" is no-longer present. I am wondering if the latest BOIS Version (H.90) is the culprit? If it is, is there a way to "roll back" to the previous BIOS version?
Motherboard BIOS Version: H.90 (Motherboard: X79A-GD45 Plus). Windows 8.1 (64-bit)

@Svet: I checked and have (embarrassingly) found the problem. I was unable to scroll down in the BIOS settings menu for Overclocking, and therefore could not "see" the option I was looking for. I adjusted the sensitivity of my mouse(?) and all of a sudden all is well. I found the option concerned and enabled it (how it had become disabled after nearly 1 year, I do not know) and all is now as it has been for a year. Weird!
Many thanks for your willingness to assist, and sorry for wasting your time. Cheers.
(Is there a way to mark this issue as "Solved" as in some other forums?)

Repair for missing "open recent" documents option in my File Menu?

Can someone suggest how to repair a missing "open recent" documents option in my File Menu? I'm using CS5 Indesign.
There's no option for it greyed out or otherwise. It originally had dissappeared while using CS4. I gave up on it. Installed CS5 and hoped it would come back: nada. I did the Ctrl-Alt-Shift thing and deleted prefs file: Still no recent docs option. VERY IRRITATING.
There's got to be a way. But I'm not informed enough. Help, please?

This is easily fixed...took me a while to find out how.
Go into Preferences, click on File Handling...you will then see a page with 'Saving InDesign Files' in the middle section (See attached screen grab). You'll see a box next to 'Number of Recent Items to Display' which I'm assuming will be '0'...change this to any number up to 99. Click OK. Close InDesign. Reopen InDesign...Open a file, close the file...you will now see the 'Open Recent' link when you click on file.
Problem solved.

Missing Quick Start features option in BIOs setup

I would like to enable Quick Start in Ideapad S10-3s. But the Lenovo Quick Start features option is not available in the BIOs configuration.
I upgraded the BIOs to the latest version, still do not have the Quick Start features option in the BIOS configuration menu.
Is there a hardware problem with the Ideapad?

it's probably hardware. it's actually linux operation system and comes with pre-loaded operation system. did you make any changes on volumes?

BIOS setup menu is missing in my G580 after installing fedora....

Dear sir,
I bought a Lenovo G580 [59337032] laptop about a month ago.
It had no OS installed. I installed Fedora 17 in it.
But after installing Fedora, I can't be able to access the BIOS setup menu by pressing F2.
And also my boot order rearranged.
While pressing F12 during boot, the boot devices list appears.
But the first entry is Fedora, 2nd is Ethernet, 3rd is HDD, 4th is DVD drive.
I found a similar problem in this forum. But the solution [disconnect the HDD and press F2 during boot]
of that problem did not work in my case.
I also deleted the recovery partion of lenovo.
My BIOS version is 62CN34WW
How can I fix my BIOS?
Now my OS is Windows7.

Dear Sirs!
Have the absolutely same problem with one difference - installed OS was Ubuntu 9.04.
According to recomendation HDD mode was setted as "сompatible" (IDE). After rearranging
disk to 3 parts: /, /swap and /user/home and setting up system I have find that BIOS setup
are unaccessible and system won't boot up (Non system disk error).
From LiveCD and USB, both Ubuntu and Windows XP SP3 system boots and work fine,
HDD read/write accesible.
Local serviceman told, that they have no possibility to reprogram BIOS flash by themselves
and it will take 2-3 month to obtain new motherboard or whole laptop for exchange. This is
absolutely unacceptable for me, because my job depends on the health of the laptop.
Laptop Lenovo G580, BIOS version 62CN34WW
Thanks in advance for cooperation!

[msi k8n neo4-f] missing options in bios

1. is there any posibility to turn off fdd seek and to turn on num lock? there is no that options in bios.
2. does this mainboard have built-in firewall?
thanks

no no, i've just wanted to disable fdd seeking during fdc controller initialization. now i know that it is impossible with official bios version (with numlock the same)
now the question where can i find hacked/modded bioses for this mainboard? (http://www.lejabeach.com/MSIK8N/k8nneo4ultra/k8nneo4.html ---> does these bioses fits to neo4-f? i think for all k8n neo4 (nforce 4 and nforce 4 ultra) bioses are the same)
and one more question: i've read on some other forum that on this mainboard with bios v1.3 and higher (official) it is impossible to set FSB higher than ~229MHz (blank screen even i've set memory to 100MHz, HT x1 and higher CPU voltage) and the sollution is to flash with bios v1.2 (official) or modded/hacked version. is it true?

Recommend opening a ticket with MSI Tech Support & describing in detail the problems you are having with the new bios. Since this is a user to user forum, nothing concerning a bios revision or the like is going to get fixed here. About the only advice anyone here could give would be maybe some new setting in the bios has been added, or a setting has been overlooked preventing the desired results.
After taking a peek in the manual, nothing is shown about the board having these setting options. It's possible the new bios has incorporated it. It would show up in bios Cell Menu & the description of what it is & what it does would be in the info box to the right. When OC'ing, make sure to disable Spread Spectrum. After the bios update, did you remove the power cord from the PSU & clear CMOS?
I have disabled the "Spread Spectrum" because it caused slow perfomance especially in SSD.
About the power cord and clear cmos. No, never, ever.

I don't see the point of posting system specs because I'm sure it's a bug, the bios refuses to save the Cell Menu options but whatever. I can't argue with that because this information is crucial to most issues
