Description
BIOS dump for a Compal laptop on the CQ40 platform, board LA-4101P, revision 1.0. The uploader marked it as tested, but that label comes from the poster and has not been independently verified. A BIOS dump like this is used with a programmer to reprogram the SPI flash chip after a corrupted BIOS or a failed update. Before flashing, confirm that the board number and revision on your motherboard match the file, and back up the original chip contents so you can restore them if needed. The archive is a RAR file of about 0.8 MB.
For board LA-4101P the catalog also has 8 schematics, 2 boardview files, and 5 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: CQ40 LA-4101P. 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.
