    Looking for a little assistance here. I've purchased an Intel AC7260 card, and a new AC1750 router. I'm following the directions posted here, but FPTW64.exe errors out and won't create a backup of my current bios.

    I flashed the OEM Lenovo 3.05 bios, launched the backup batch file from an elevated command prompt, but I get the following output: "Error 104: The 2 SPI flash devices do not have compatible command sets." I've tried running FPTW64 from both my desktop (C drive) and from a USB flash drive. I've also downgraded to the Stock 2.07 bios and tried to back that up with the same output.

    What exactly am I doing wrong here?
