I have two Z240 workstations both undated to the most recent BIOS 1.89. Both on Windows 10 64bit
One station gives the same warnings on bootup but boots to Windows normally:
Sure Start log entry: Sure Start found the backup BIOS is either corrupted or missing. Possible causes include but not limited to interrupted BIOS update. [fe 00 25 32 15 15 02 16 03 1f 00 fc 00 00 00 00]

Sure Start log entry: Sure Start found the primary BIOS in shared flash memory is either corrupted or missing. Possible causes include but not limited to interrupted BIOS update or recent BIOS attack. [fe 00 44 49 21 08 07 22 03 1e 00 fd 00 00 00 00] Source: SureStart EC Task Timestamp: 22-07-08 21:49:44.
I have reinstalled the BIOS update but that doesn't remove the warnings.
