Hi

My Lenovo Thinkbook 13s-IML has a bios problem.

1. Bios settings cannot be stored
2. The system does not boot into any OS anymore; not from USB, nor from ssd

When saving the bios settings, it give 4 errors:

Formset (Configuration) AB72D350-82B0-402A-84C8-164BB7DEB828 Failed to save storage: Setup. Status: Write Protected
Formset (Configuration) AB72D350-82B0-402A-84C8-164BB7DEB828 Failed to save storage: CpuSetup. Status: Write Protected
Formset (Configuration) AB72D350-82B0-402A-84C8-164BB7DEB828 Failed to save storage: PchSetup. Status: Write Protected
Formset (Configuration) AB72D350-82B0-402A-84C8-164BB7DEB828 Failed to save storage: SaSetup. Status: Write Protected

To try solving it, I disconnected the laptop battery and hold the power key for a while. This reset the date and time.
The error stays.

From the bios menu I tried resetting to factory defaults and disabling secure boot. This also does not work since the new settings cannot be saved.

What can I do to fix the save bios settings issue?

Boot menu that appears on boot. It does not boot into any option.
