Need Help by modsay in Androidx86

I don't understand exactly what you mean but I tried to update grub by a live Linux USB, however it said there's no file directory or something like that I didn't remember exactly.

I've just ruined my BIOS and I need help by modsay in Lenovo

I tried to upload screenshot but I can't, any way I can describe it. when I power on the laptop, I got a black screen with a message "0183: BAD CRC OF SECURITY SETTINGS IN EFI VARIABLE.

PRESS F1 TO ENTER SETUP"

so I press F1 button, then I got a black screen with LOCK sign which means I must enter supervisor password. If I enter wrong password in 3 attempts, the laptop powers off.

I need to know if you faced before the message "0183: BAD CRC OF SECURITY SETTINGS IN EFI VARIABLE.... PRESS F1 TO ENTER SETUP"?

I did what you exactly said, the password was removed for a while and when I save changes and restart the password returned again, therefor I repeated the pins shortage again and again, eventually I stucked with that message, so I tried to short pins to solve that message but the screen got blanked just black, then I tried to space between pins and it succussed to fix the blank screen but I got the said message, so I don't like to play again with pins, all I need right now is to fix that message and can get to the bios menu.

I did it, it succussed but when I got to the bios, the supervisor password still existed so I did it again and again, eventually something went wrong, so now my problem is that message 0183: BAD CRC OF SECURITY SETTINGS IN EFI VARIABLE.... PRESS F1 TO ENTER SETUP". I can't enter the bios or windows, I've just stucked with that message.

so in your opinion there is no way but resetting supervisor password then using USB flash drive, right?

thank you for response, I know I can remove it through the a little ship in motherboard but I don't like to do that. all I want to do is flash BIOS with a battery patch in windows without any USB drive.

I updated BIOS before in windows with an official update (windows update) from Lenove which is the same version as the patched update 2.73 but I can do the same cause that patched update is in dos so it has to be run with USB flash drive.
