Description

BIOS dump for the Compal laptop board NM-B461, revision 1.0, platform EL580, supplied as a RAR archive of about 11 MB. The uploader marked it as tested, though that is their own claim and not something the catalog has checked. Technicians use a BIOS dump like this to reprogram the SPI flash chip with a programmer after a corrupted BIOS or a failed update. Before flashing, confirm that the board number and revision match your own board, and back up the original chip contents so you can recover if the write goes wrong.

The catalog also lists 2 schematics, 1 boardview file, and 4 BIOS dumps for board NM-B461.

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: EL580 NM-B461. 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.
