Did you Flash from DOS with AWDFLASH ???? Also did you previously have a loader on that system using the Lenovo Info ???
Yeah... I tried the recommended bios flash utility (the asus one...), but everytime I executed the command, the system would just hang (I waited 20+ minutes for completion)... -And yes, I previously used Daz's loader. The new windows patch I installed caught me red handed. I uninstalled the loader however... Is it still hanging onto some info somehow?
I successfully flashed my BIOS with AWDFLASH. From your previous post, I thought you were insinuating that AWDFLASH was the wrong tool to use. I would gladly try EVGA's utility, which I have used in the past with success, but that requires a floppy drive. I had to jump through quite a few hoops the last time I used that, and I'd rather not have to go through that again. But if that's my problem, I'll try EVGA's utility.
Hooray! Everything is in the green. The second bios was the trick. Interesting notes: The commands you had me use forced me to smash the y key (for yes) like a mad man. If i missed the millisecond in which it would take the input, the command line would pop up and i'd have to try again. Second, both bioses caused a cmos crash and a windows lockup on the first boot (fine now). And lastly, I'm confused on how to finish my verification. I have the certificate and cdkeys installed. WAT says i need to input a legit cdkey.
