Description

BIOS dump for the Apple A1226 laptop, board number 820-2101, supplied as a 7Z archive of about 1.3 MB. The original file name references the board revision A and an M75 platform with a T7700 CPU, though those details come from the file name rather than a verified spec sheet. A dump like this is used to reprogram the SPI flash chip with a programmer after BIOS corruption or a failed update. Confirm that the board number and revision on your logic board match before flashing, and back up the original chip contents first.

The catalog also lists 1 schematic, 2 boardview files, and 2 BIOS dumps for board 820-2101.
