    Hi to all,

    I have a NEC Versa M370 model M4200
    after a bad flash, the screen still black and it are no more booting :(
    I tested the different methods I found but no one is working :(
    I tested with USB key and CD with only one file "AMIBOOT.ROM" and I pressed many keys on startup (Ctrl+Home , Ctrl+PgUp , Ctrl+PgDn) but the laptop screen stay black.
    When I start the laptop, I see the DVD drive reading but nothing happens after.
    If a test with the usb key, it's blinking while 2 hours but no bip and the screen stay black

    Do you know how I can flash it and get back it working ?

    Thanks

    (OP)
    it seems to make the bios recovery, I need to remove a jumper (J6C1) but I don't know where is this jump :(
    it will be usefull if I canna have the motherboard plan, but I don't find it :(

    Error, the jump J6C1 is apparently for desktop motherboard
    There is no jump on the motherboard of the laptop
