Description

BIOS dump for an Acer laptop, board LA-H501P, revision 1A, produced by Compal (model listed as 1A, original file name acer la-h501p rev 1A.rar, about 6 MB). A dump like this is used to reprogram the SPI flash chip with a programmer after a corrupted BIOS or a failed update. Before writing anything, confirm that the board number and revision printed on your motherboard match LA-H501P rev 1A, and save a full backup of the original chip contents so you can recover if the new image does not behave as expected.

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: Acer 1A LA-H501P. 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.
