The BIOS and Embedded Controller versions are different for an X40 vs. an X41 systemboard (see link below). You' d have to flash the BIOS and embedded controller required for an X40 board, not an X41.

I think we are having a language moment here. Please answer this question for me. You have an X40 Tablet. You removed the board from it and installed an X41 Tablet board. Now you are unable to flash the X41 embedded controller on the new board?

If you have an X41 tablet, as far as I know you need to flash X41 Tablet BIOS and embedded controller.
