Description

From the original post:
ASUS K542UF X542UQ REV 2.1 (X542UF (212) ) Nvidia N16S-GTR-S-A2 i7-8550U 8MB WORKING BIOS 100%

BIOS dump for the ASUS K542UF laptop, revision 2.1, made for an 8 MB flash chip. The uploader marks it as tested, but that is their note, not a verification of the file. Technicians use a BIOS dump like this 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 match yours, and back up the original chip contents first.

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: ASUS K542UF. 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.
