Hi there, apologies I'm a real noob with this sort of stuff so please bear with me:
A week or two ago my laptop randomly started having the Blue Screen of Death and bootloop every time it booted up. So I tried the recovery options while trying to retain the data: the laptop then said you need a Bitlocker Recovery Key. I never selected for the drive to be bitlocker encrypted so this was really weird to me- I have looked through every Microsoft account I own and none of them have the bitlocker recovery key.
After researching I came across this article: https://dolosgroup.io/blog/2021/7/9/...ompany-network . I managed to get the laptop specs off a website for my motherboard version "lenovo x1 carbon lcfc yoda 2 nm-b48 schematic". I also ordered this https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/113701218925 and this https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/164470624858 . Using the schematic I assume the chip I am looking for is the U49 chip, but I am not sure of this. I have found a chip that looks quite similar but its the U184 chip. But there are a few issues that I am encountering: First of all there is like a piece of plastic all over the motherboard I am not sure what it is for and I am trying not to peel all of it off because it looks like it wont go back to sticking after I peel it off. Could anybody if possible please guide me as to where this chip would be on the board?
I also have a few questions regarding this usb analyzer: I noticed in the article in one of the pictures the author connects one of the wires to a completely different area that is not on the chip, why does he do this? Is it necessary or can I just connect all these clips to purely the chip and it will work? Hopefully once I find this chip, I will hopefully have a better idea of how to hook everything up using the logic analyzer.
If anybody can help it would be really appreciated!
Thanks
