    Need help with my Lenovo Y520-15IKBN BIOS!

    Hi everyone!

    My laptop powers on, fans spinning, HDD turns on, charging LED and power on LED lighting up as normal, but nothing on screen, then 5 seconds later my laptop shuts down abruptly, I'm suspecting a corrupt BIOS, even the keyboard backlight used to light up but not anymore.

    I have backed up the BIOS from my chip using CH341A programmer and followed a couple guides to flash the BIOS but still the same issue, I could be doing something wrong or some other motherboard issue, anyways can someone provide me with a fixed BIOS?

    I'll provide all necessary information, just tell me what is needed.

    I backed up the BIOS using CH341A programmer v1.34.
    Would love if all the hidden options in the BIOS are enabled.
    This is the link to the BIOS update from Lenovo website:
    https://download.lenovo.com/consumer...s/4kcn45ww.exe

    Thanks in advance.

      This didn't work unfortunately, same exact issue.

      Is there a way to disable discrete GPU in that BIOS file and boot using the integrated graphics card? just wanna check if my dGPU is the issue.

      Thanks for your time.

              After uploading the bios from Fire1234 there is a black screen and the laptop turns off after 4 seconds. On my original bios, the laptop starts up and when the windows starts to load (the ball starts spinning) the laptop turns off. Checked disk, replaced with another

                    the bios posted by fire1234 is ok,the problem is somewhere else.

                    Edit: the serial number you gave is for a Y520-15IKBM ,the motherboard has an i7-7700HQ and GTX 1060. Are you sure the motherboard is a DY520 NM-B391 REV1.0 or is it an DY512 NM-B191 REV 1.0 .Is there a lenovo part number sticker in the memory slot area

                          The device turns off senselessly, sometimes before the image appears,and sometimes it turns off within 1-2 minutes.

                          Could you please clean and edit the ec and bios files?

                            It's better to write your device serial number and full model type.

                              Is there a file I can try?

                                      Here's your New bios file, it's a virgin bios from Lenovo.
                                      As @peste said, you should take a Backup from your chip before use this new file.
