Description

From the original post:
ASUS X550JX REV 2.0 i5-4200H CLR ME REGION TESTED

BIOS dump for the ASUS X550JX laptop, revision 2.0, supplied as a RAR archive of about 6.8 MB with the Intel ME region cleaned. Technicians use a dump like this to reprogram the SPI flash chip with a programmer after a corrupted BIOS or a failed update. The uploader marks it as tested, but that is their own note and has not been independently checked here. Confirm that the board number and revision on your motherboard match revision 2.0, and back up the original chip contents before writing anything.

The catalog also lists 2 boardview files and 15 BIOS dumps for the ASUS X550JX.

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 X550JX. 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.
