Can you update the BIOS when the disk is encrypted?
#3
Nice! Glad you solved it.

Strangely enough I updated the BIOS of my work laptop last week.
This one was encrypted with BitLocker (Windows) and did not boot anymore, just kept asking for the unlock key (a really long key not related to the passwords).
I had the key so I was able to boot again... otherwise it would've been a wipe and reinstall.

So, I guess these stories are a word of caution to anyone using encryption. Always have a backup, just in case something happens! Wink
