    Be sure to use the Winphlash offered earlier in this thread, under Windows XP. If no XP, down load an XP Make disk and run from that environment.

    I too had many unsuccessful attempts, with both Phlash16 and other versions of Winphlash.

    I am using this BIOS on the laptop to type this message, so I can attest it's integrity. Enjoy, TPB

    Good afternoon to everybody as I post my first post on this forum :)

    I've got a IBM Thinkpad T60 2007-V7J(normal screen not widescreen)
    couple a weeks a ago I tried a online bios update and most of you guessed it all ready.... it went wrong....
    when starting it up the screen is black and only thing i see is the battery lights on....

    after allot of reading around the net I've discoverd it might be that the bios chip is totally wrecked so best thing is to get a new chip that was already programmed.

    Finding the chip was the easy part but now I'm struggling to get the SLIC ROM of my type of laptop. I've read in the earlier posts of this thread a link to download a T60 ROM, but my question is is that file suitable for the kind of job I want to do with it?

    Because the company that programs these chips needs a file, but I don't know for sure whether it is the .ROM file that they need...and where to get that file...:confused::confused:

    appreciate the help guys! :D

    It doesn't work. I'm curious about the Chinese people. How do they decompress it completely?:confused:

    Thank you very very much!!:):)
    I've been searching for hours and didn't find that. I've even PM'ed Zhaoliang but he didn't reply so far!
    Now I'm trying to reproduce the steps (broken English...oh well I know this... hehe)

    Could you please link to the original source just if I'll need further informations?

    Thanks again, new stuff to learn:D
