#351 @axt (axt.)

are you sure that is safe for lenovo Y50-70 ? & will it fix the problem ? have you tried it by yourself ? I'm afraid of reflashing the BIOS as I already have the latest BIOS version so I have to extract the BIOS.exe installation file & manipulate the platform.ini to allow re-installing it.

knowing that long ago when I updated to this BIOS version for the first time it got stuck on 100% & didn't let me shutdown the computer by any method even holding the power button & this laptop got internal battery so I couldn't remove it. I had to wait for the battery to get empty & luckily it didn't have any problems when it opened up. So this BIOS version installation already have problems. :D
