Description

BIOS dump file CQ61I.BIN, supplied as a BIN image for a 1 MB flash chip. No brand, model, board number or revision is given in the file details, so confirm the target board before using it. Technicians use a dump like this to reprogram the SPI flash chip with a programmer after a corrupted BIOS or a failed update. Match the board number and revision on your motherboard to the source before flashing, and read out and save the original chip contents first so you can restore them if something goes wrong.

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: CQ61I. 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.
