Description

BIOS dump for the Dell CL0430 laptop, supplied as a RAR archive named DELl CL0430 REV A02 M61PMV OK BIOS.rar. The file name indicates revision A02 and a board marking of M61PMV, but the facts available here do not give a separate board number or chip size, so confirm those against your own board before use. Technicians use a BIOS dump like this to reprogram the SPI flash chip with a programmer after a corrupted BIOS or a failed update.

Questions about this file

How do I flash this BIOS dump?

Will this BIOS work on my board?

Only if the board number and revision match: Dell CL0430. 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.
