Description

BIOS dump for the Dell DQ15 laptop, board number 10260-1 from Wistron, supplied for a 4 MB flash chip. The original file name references a Dell N5110 and an MX25L3205 chip, so the device the dump was taken from is worth confirming against your own board. Technicians use a dump like this to reprogram the SPI flash with a programmer after BIOS corruption or a failed update. Before writing anything, check that the board number and revision match yours, and save the original chip contents as a backup.

For board 10260-1 the catalog also has 2 schematics, 4 boardview files, and 2 BIOS dumps.

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 DQ15 10260-1. 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.
