Description
BIOS dump, 1 MB chip size, supplied as a BIN file named CQ50a.BIN. The facts do not name a brand, model or board number, so confirm the target machine before use. Technicians use a dump like this to reprogram the SPI flash chip with a programmer after a corrupted BIOS or failed update. Read and back up the original contents of your chip first, and only write the file if its size and the board it was taken from match your hardware.

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: CQ50a. 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.
