That battery is also 3 years old. Even if you were to pull the battery out it would still show a drain when put back in.
I agree it could be the battery. It could also be settings in Device Manger. How to test the battery? I know Windows 11 has PC Manager. What do you suggest in a software to test the battery?
 
I feel defeated, but at 50%!

I didn't want to try and update the bios, that probably would have messed things up even more. I took the system to MBR, so Legacy, everything works as before, it works as before 22h2, so good... even the windows logo appears, it seems, simply the BIOS is bad, an update could have solved it, but it could have given even more problems, given the situation I preferred this path, in the end it doesn't change anything for me, I'll keep an eye on the battery and let you know for this point
 
Hi, this is the end of this topic.
All my problems were solved simply using MBR instead of GPT (Legacy instead of UEFI).
The battery problem has been solved (100% 16/02/2023 20:00, 99% 18/02/2023 13:56).
Splash screen shows Windows logo, no longer Lenovo logo.
The audio works better (I didn’t ask for help on this, I didn’t want to ask you too many things).

All’s well that ends well, but (as I said) I’m only 50% happy. I fixed my problems by returning from GPT to MBR, the UEFI mode always gave problems to the system, I could update the BIOS or as I was suggested to change the CMOS battery, but I didn’t.

Thank you for your suggestions :)
