BIOS Update for S4216

alanossher — Mon, 01 Jun 2020 10:51:12 GMT

Hello All

I have a Medion Akoya S4216 which was working fine until I installed Win10 and the battery stopped charging.

The German version of this forum suggests upgrading the BIOS to 507 in order to get the battery charging again.

I am already running BIOS Version 507.

I have tried to update the BIOS again to 507, but receive an error that I need to check the battery first.

Any suggestions are welcome.

Regards

Alan.

Hi @alanossher welcome to the forum !

Can you please let us know the MSN number of your product?

It is an 8-digits number that you can find printed on a label underneath it. It usually starts by 100, 300 or 500.

Also, it is not clear which battery the error message refers to: CMOS or regular battery.

In this case you may want to try the suggestions indicated on the links below:

CMOS battery here

Regular battery here

Please let me know the outcome.
