Description

BIOS dump for a laptop built on the Compal LA-B972P board, platform AS056, PCB revision 1.0. The package includes EC/KBC firmware, so it is an embedded controller image rather than a standard BIOS-only file. Technicians use dumps like this with a programmer to rewrite the flash chip after corruption or a failed update. Before flashing, confirm that the board number and revision on your motherboard match, and back up the original chip contents so you can recover if the write goes wrong.

The catalog also lists 3 schematics and 9 BIOS dumps for board LA-B972P.

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: AS056 LA-B972P. 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.
