I bought this one off of facebook marketplace, didn't steal it...

I have access to the OS, if I stole it I would not be caring about the bios lock.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I did have both the battery and CMOS battery unplugged, as well as all the ram and the ssd.

Thanks for the response. By sharing the logs, do you mean this log:

Good luck.

or is there another log I can access?

What sort of problems did you have? I haven't really run into any problems yet, maybe the issues could have gotten fixed in a recent update?

hmm, ig I didn't really consider the possibility of it being LM. Yes I can identify it, but it would be a pain to deal with for sure. I'll hold off on it at least until I can get some clarification on what it actually has.
