    hi all,
    i'm newer. i have an Lenovo Y560 dead while updating Bios. i downloaded a bios file from Lenovo website.

    i unzipped the file, and i only see 30CN71WW.WPH file with 6.1MB and my bios rom capacity is 4MB. anyone know how to get 4MB rom file from 6.1MB file? so i can program the bios.
    thanks:worthy:

    make backup.bin from chip and compare in hexeditor to the bios dload.

    or find out how to cut platform data.

    not totally sure but i know YEN has done one or 2 when he has time .. hes very busy person with work.

    post the bios backup.bin on a fileshare site.. rghost.net or mediafire.com and so.

    what i have had to do
    with winhex i find the data diferences.
    then with HxD editor i do the modifications (HxD has a find bug that would not find some stuff)
