Description

BIOS dump for a Dell laptop on board number 11280-1, an ODM board from Wistron, supplied as a RAR archive of about 2.9 MB. The original file name refers to the Vostro 2520 (DV15 MLK MB 11280-1) with PWB MXRD2 and revision A00, so the revision printed on your board should match that label before you use it. Technicians use a BIOS dump like this to reprogram the SPI flash chip with a programmer after a corrupted BIOS or a failed update. Read and back up the original chip contents first, so you can restore them if the write goes wrong.

For board 11280-1 the catalog also has 2 schematics, 1 boardview file, and 5 BIOS dumps.

Will this BIOS work on my board?

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.
