Hello!

In the repair I got the mentioned laptop with the corrupted BIOS.
I reflashed the BIOS chip in programmer. Now the laptop turn on, but the message "ME is in Recovery State..." appears on the screen during startup. After a few seconds the laptop normally boot to windows.

What I've done up to now:
- Entered the serial number, product number and all other codes in new BIOS using "HPBR" software.
- Transferred the BIOS ME-region from old original BIOS to the new dump.
- I tried with two different BIOS dumps, but the same message still appears.



Any idea, what does this message mean and why it is displayed during startup?

Did You try update bios under the windows system?

Yes, I did.
I updated the BIOS from the version F.03 to version F.67, but the same issue is still present.
I have to mention that the BIOS update under the windows lasted about 12 hours, but it was successful at the end.

Use Intel Management Engine (ME) Firmware Update Tool:

Here supported models:

BIOS ME region updated with "Intel Management Engine (ME) Firmware Update Tool" under DOS.
Now the laptop works correctly without displaying mentioned message.

@Type5, thank you for your help!
