I have this very same model which unfortunately the BIOS got corrupted after Win8.1 to Win 10 upgrade. Recently have it fixed by a local repair shop. I have no idea whether they swapped another IC or flashed the corrupted IC, the BIOS version was altered into B0CN93WW. The laptop works just fine at first until I began to have issues with my Dedicated R5 M330 GPU. Do you think flashing the BIOS with default BIOS version will brick the laptop?
