Basic Bios Tools

Bios tools enable you to do basic backup / dump/ restore if you DON’T want to lose any board info in case a BIOS update / mod / whatever failed and you have flashed an empty BIOS then you need your board info back.

How to use

  • Extract it somewhere
  • The do the following:
    1. To dump your current BIOS, go to Scripts and run _dump_BIOS.Ink
    2. To backup all your Lenovo Variables, go to Scripts and run _backup.cmd as admin. A log file will be opened in notepad to monitor progress
  • Your info should be backed up and stored in bios_backup / LVAR_backup folder
  • Save them in the cloud just in case you need it someday
  • (optional) If step 2 has been done and you lost your board info due to whatever reason, go to Scripts and run _restore.cmd as admin and a log file will be open in notepad to tell the progress
