But that didn’t help either.Ĭould it be because of battery which is not at 100%? I used long life mode, so I guess it never got to the full power. Held Fn+R and with the other hand pressed the power button.ĭid I do anything wrong? In some other rescue topic someone suggested to hold Fn+B, then plug AC (battery still out) and then press the power.Plugged in AC power and battery and USB stick.The stick had its capacity reduced and contained 3 files. Plugged in an 2GB USB stick and went Start -> Ok -> Ok -> No.Downloaded BIOS (tried both 59 and 71) and moved the xxx.wph to the Crysis directory as bios.wph. I followed the instructions here, but after Fn+R + power btn nothing happened. It doesn’t respond to AC power, battery plugging in/out and of course not even the power button ? After about 15 minutes I turned it off manually. It just stucked with black screen and some LEDs lighting.
The Windows shut down, but the computer never really turned off. The flashing completed succesfully (at least that’s what the message box said) and computer was about to restart. Just yesterday my Y560 got messed somehow while flashing BIOS (71 to 59 because of overheating issues).
Lenovo has never expressed any support for it. – press and hold Fn and B keys while switching onĭISCLAIMER: The solution below worked for me, it may or may not work for you. – connect battery, powercable, and pendrive The recovery procedure is started as follows: You don’t need a special media… just put the bios file on a pendrive. G560 bricked after bios update – please give advice – something else If one of them is not ok, then reflash is stopped. VERY IMPORTANT NOTICE ABOUTE RECOVERY LENOVO LAPTOPS: Do not take off your battery before flashing unlike the others brand that you should take off battery!! It seems that before flashing, it verify AC/DC connection and battery level.
