edit: resolved downgraded bios form 1.37 to 1.20

i have 2 lenovo t450s, both with upgraded 6 cell Amazon batteries. in the past few days bothcomputers have these same messages when rebooted requiring "escape" to accept the message in order to boot up ... i've removed the lenovo battery management software (didn't help)

seems the message is from the bios (downgrading to 1.36 didn't work), suggestions ?

Hello buddy i have the same issue, i was reading over the internet and somebody said that the bios can't be degraded from version 1.30 afterward. Any trick or walkthrough?
