Description

BIOS dump for a 1 MB flash chip, supplied as an FD file under the original name dv5-1050ee.FD. The facts do not give a brand, board number or revision, so confirm from the file name and your own board markings that it matches the machine you are working on. Technicians use a BIOS dump like this to reprogram the SPI flash with a programmer after a corrupted BIOS or a failed update. Before writing anything, read and save the original chip contents as a backup so you can restore them if the new image does not behave as expected.

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: dv5-1050ee. 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.
