    I tried modding the BIOS myself, I tried using a modded bios I found on this site, but both gave me the same strange error and I had to unbrick my laptop using the method I also found on this site, thankfully. After flashing the laptop would shut off after 30 seconds, without fail. I wasn't able to get to the desktop, and whenever I used the USB fix, it behaved fine after. What am I doing wrong? This is pretty impossible.

    Figured it out. DON'T USE THE WINDOWS FLASH TOOL, EVEN THOUGH THE GUIDE RECOMMENDS IT. Everything worked fine when I used the dos tool.
