Description

BIOS dump for a laptop built on the Compal NM-A301 board (platform AIMT1), supplied as a ZIP archive of about 6.1 MB under the original file name T450 AIMT1 NM-A301.zip. 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 on your motherboard match the file, and save a full backup of the original chip contents so you can recover if the write goes wrong.

The catalog also lists 2 schematics, 3 boardview files, and 8 BIOS dumps for board NM-A301.

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: AIMT1 NM-A301. 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.
