Description
A BIOS dump in ROM format, 1.5 MB in size, original file name E5500A17_1.rom. The facts do not name a brand, model or board number, so the file's target hardware cannot be confirmed from this page alone. Technicians use a BIOS dump like this to reprogram the SPI flash chip with a programmer after corruption or a failed update. Before writing anything, confirm that the board number and revision match your machine, and back up the original chip contents first.

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: E5500A17 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.
