Wow, amazing, I googled "lenovo 6072 bios update" and this list of BIOS update tools, including CD ISOs, was the first result.

Not being sarcastic, you can ACTUALLY update the BIOS with a CD/DVD.

That is VERY rare sight to see, IMO.

What Operating System are you using?

 

For the M57 6072, I see two BIOS versions available:

https://pcsupport.lenovo.com/ca/en/products/desktops-and-all-in-ones/thinkcentre-m-series-desktops/thinkcentre-m57/6072/downloads

 

Click on BIOS/UEFI >> Flash BIOS update- ThinkCetre M57, M57p

You'll see a bunch of options; would recommend you use either:

• Flash BIOS update (diskette version) - Utilities Diskette
• Flash in Windows Package

You need to put in a compatible CPU back into the motherboard first...

You said you still have the other CPU.

[hardtofindinthefuture]

I have a lenovo 6072 system that im trying to put a different CPU in

ive went to 

https://pcsupport.lenovo.com/us/en/products/desktops-and-all-in-ones/thinkcentre-m-series-desktops/thinkcentre-m57/6072/downloads

 

and tried

Flash BIOS update (diskette version) - Utilities Diskette

Flash in Windows package

 

and when i try to run them it says "your pc cant run, check if there is a version for your PC"

That site is weird, it's support for 6072 but the bios files it shows there are for 6393-6395. BUT I noticed, at least in my case, it's choosing Windows 8 by default in Operating Systems (I'm not using Windows 8 so it's not some weird autodetection >.>), but if you uncheck the OS choice it'll show more BIOS file options, so maybe that's what you're looking for?
