*Problem solved*

[PuuFa]

So, I installed a SSD in my X41 Tablet and everything worked well except the infamous 2010 error. As a solution I downloaded the modified bios from here http://forums.mydigitallife.info/thread ... post344779 I burnt it on cd, used USB CD to boot and everything seemed ok until after "Flash programming complete" I got this error with beeps:
"Phoenix Phlash16 Error
Erase flash memory block failed
RESTART SYSTEM WITH CRISIS DISKETTE"
Tried to re-flash but it ended up the same. Everything else seems to work though except the digitizer and tablet buttons... I tried to flash the original X41T bios available from Lenovo but after a reboot when it should have started the flash process I got this message:
"The diskette in the default drive will not run on this system.
Your system is now locked. To restart your system, press Ctrl+Alt+Del."

So what can I do to fix this, can anyone help?

One thing which might have affected somehow was that a while ago I tried to upgrade the embedded controller from version 1.01 to 1.02 but what I didn't know back then was that the installation file was intended for Win XP and I was running Win 7 (yeah I was too lazy to read the instructions) so I got a message like this:
"EFlash Error
DeviceIoControl() returns 24
Please restart your operating system and
execute the BIOS or Embedded controller update again."
Nothing seemed to be changed though so I was thinking it didn't do anything. Also bios was still showing the same old version number of 1.01 for the embedded controller. However after I got this problem with the modded bios I did some research and found a diskette version of the updater from Lenovo. I boot it from USB floppy, but it ended up with the same message I got when I tried to Flash the original bios. Ouch... I will appreciate very VERY much if someone will show up with a working solution..

Contact www.aqstech.com, who advertises at the top of this page (BIOS recovery).
You could also try and use an external floppy and DOWNgrade the BIOS to a version earlier.
And NEVER EVER update a BIOS from within Windows!

I actually worked it out now...and the reason for my problem turned out to be quite embarrassing. I had accidentally downloaded non tablet version of the bios. Oops! Anyways everything works now as I flashed the correct version in place. So what we learned...if you are about to do something crucial when you should be sleeping then think again!

Glad you got it going again.
