Description
BIOS dump for a laptop built on the Compal LA-C381P board, platform APW50, revision 1B, supplied for a 16 MB flash chip. The uploader marked it as tested, though that is their own claim and not verified here. Technicians use a dump like this to reprogram the SPI chip with a programmer after a corrupted BIOS or failed update. Before flashing, confirm that the board number LA-C381P and revision 1B match your board, and save the original chip contents as a backup first.
For board LA-C381P the catalog also has 2 boardview files and 13 BIOS dumps.

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: APW50 LA-C381P. 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.
