ThinkPad UEFI failure: Experienced users can repair their laptops with some effort

[Redaktion]

Yesterday, we reported on a catastrophic failure related to a setting in the UEFI-firmware of recent ThinkPads. Essentially, if the users changed a certain setting in the UEFI of their ThinkPad, there is a good chance that the machines is bricked in the process. Now, a user of an affected machine has managed to repair it. Doing so does however require some know-how, as well as the right tools.

That is a lot of effort and potential warranty issues.
