Description

BIOS dump for a Dell laptop, supplied as a 2.0 MB ROM file under the name BIOS 1520 dell.ROM. The facts do not give a specific model, board number or revision, so confirm that the board you are working on matches this dump before using it. Technicians use BIOS dumps to reprogram the SPI flash chip with a programmer after BIOS corruption or a failed update. Back up the original chip contents first, and check the board identification carefully, since flashing a mismatched image can leave the machine unable to start.

Questions about this file

How do I flash this BIOS dump?

Write it to the SPI flash chip with a programmer such as the CH341A and a SOIC8 clip. Read and keep the original contents first, and check that the chip size matches the dump.

Will this BIOS work on my board?

Only if the board number and revision match: 1520 dell. Dumps from a different board or revision can leave the board dead.

What does “clean ME” mean?

The Intel ME region in the dump has been reset, so it can be used on another board of the same model. Keep your original dump and transfer serial numbers if needed.
