Description

BIOS dump for an Apple laptop, supplied as a ROM file of 8 MB, which matches an 8 MB flash chip. The original file name is Apple-MBP81.88Z.0047.B2C.1510261540.rom, and the name suggests a MacBook Pro 8,1 firmware image, though the board number and revision are not listed in the file details. Technicians use a dump like this to reprogram the SPI flash with a programmer after BIOS corruption or a failed update. Before flashing, confirm that the model and board revision match your machine, and back up the original chip contents first.

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: Apple-MBP81.88Z.0047.B2C.1510261540. 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.
