Description

From the original post:
DELL OptiPlex 7040M WORKING BIOS 100%

BIOS dump for the Dell OptiPlex 7040M desktop motherboard, supplied as a RAR archive of about 8.9 MB and marked as tested by the uploader. A BIOS dump is used to reprogram the SPI flash chip with a programmer after a corrupted BIOS or a failed update. The catalog does not confirm the board number, revision or chip size for this file, so check the markings on your own board first. Back up the original chip contents before writing anything, and do not rely on the uploader's note alone.

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: DELL OptiPlex 7040M 100%. 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.
