M82 ThinkCentre - Type 3302. Model number: 3302F2U
This machine was originally purchased with the Windows 7 Pro operating system. I took advantage of the free Windows 10 upgrade when it was available over a year ago.
A few days ago I had to replace the motherboard. The computer is running fine. However, when it first boots there are 2 short beeps with an EEOC error. This error referenced the BIOS containing invalid Model Number and Serial Number. When I access the BIOS the following entries are seen:
1) Machine Type and Model INVALID
2) System Brand ID Lenovo Product
3) System Serial Number INVALID
4) Asset Tag
5) System UUID FFFFFFFF-FFFF-FFFF-FFFF-FFFFFFFFFFFF
6) Ethernet MAC Address FC-4D-D4-DB-34-F7
7) BIOS Revision Level 9SKT75AUS
8) Boot Block Revision Level 9S75A
9) BIOS Date 09/17/2013
I see references to using WinPhlash to manually update the needed settings. However, I'm unsure (because of my upgraded from Windows 7 Pro to Windows 10 Pro) of which BIOS upgrade to use.
I'd like to get that info along with instructions of exactly 'how to' complete this process.

Had to replace motherboard on my 8114 lenovo (because of the password thing) Have it all up and running again (upgraded from windosws 8 to windows 7 at the same time) The problem is that when Think Centre comes up ( bios boots) it says that the serial and type nos are invalid. It is not possible to correct these in bios settings.
