Description
C21_VC 1 - 1.2 BIOS & EC This is a BIOS dump archive, delivered as a RAR file of about 8.3 MB, and it includes EC/KBC firmware alongside the BIOS. The original file name is C21_VC 1 - 1.2 BIOS & EC.rar, which suggests version 1.2 of the BIOS and EC set for the C21_VC 1 board, but the brand, model and board number are not given in the listing. Technicians use a BIOS dump to reprogram the SPI flash chip with a programmer after corruption or a failed update, and the EC firmware is needed when the embedded controller also has to be restored.

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: C21 VC 1 - 1.2 & EC. 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.
