[QUOTE="Deleted member 2913, post: 442131"] Just now I downloaded BIOS from Lenovo for my laptop. BIOS file looked like zip file but properties showed exe. Extracted BIOS file, extraction gave zip file, extracted again & got a folder with bunch of files. There was a folder named "Crisis". Inside it was BIOS file in .cap format & Readme file. Readme file mentioned create bootable USB, rename BIOS file to BIOS.cap & copy to USB. Attach USB, press & hold fn + R & press power, keep holding fn + R for few secs & leave. You will see BIOS flashing screen. I did the above & BIOS flashed successfully. Now the progress bar on Lenovo screen stucks at the end i.e loads fully & then stucks (previously it stucked at halfway) Now F2 takes me to BIOS setup (previously progress bar stucked at halfway for F2 too) BIOS setup - Security - showed "No HDD detected". I corrected time/date on BIOS, saved & exited but still BIOS - Security - mentioned "No HDD detected". I changed SATA Controller in BIOS from AHCI - IDE, saved & exited & now BIOS - Security - HDD detected. But still on Lenovo screen progress bar loads fully & stucks. I tried F8 & on Lenovo screen progress bar fully loads & proceeds but blank screen & nothing after that. What should I do now? Lenovo V570 Win 7 64 Home [/QUOTE]
