I have this laptop in stock, serial number ZCoBXplY4H221000085. When I press the power button, the power indicator flashes, and the screen doesn’t turn on. I purchased it on AliExpress in 2022. Forums recommend flashing a clean BIOS, but I couldn’t find one anywhere. Can anyone recommend one?
How do you know it’s a BIOS problem?
The BIOS can only be updated with the correct version.
When computers first came out, they had a small speaker that beeped when you turned them on, giving you a clue about the problem.
The problem might be with another component.
Have you tried accessing the BIOS ?
The laptop is completely unresponsive, won’t enter the BIOS, and only has a black screen. The display backlight turns on, and the charging indicator is flashing. I tried replacing the RAM and SSD, but it didn’t help.
That means it’s plugged in or unplugged.
It could be the motherboard or the video card.
It’s possible, but someone flashed a clean BIOS on a similar model of this brand and the laptop worked. I just can’t find the BIOS on the official website or online. One forum recommended posting here.
I found the BIOS for the CML_CM918_SODIMM_V3.0.1 board. The firmware didn’t solve my problem, but maybe it will help someone else. I’ll leave a download link.
