From the original post:
FDW50 LA-J381P REV 1.0 (A00) W25Q256FV 8X6 32MB UNLOCKED BIOS WORKING 100%

BIOS dump for the Compal LA-J381P laptop board, platform FDW50, PCB revision 1.0, supplied as an unlocked image for a 32 MB flash chip. The uploader marks it as tested, though that is their claim and has not been verified here. A dump like this is used to reprogram the SPI flash with a programmer after BIOS corruption or a failed update. Before writing, confirm that the board number and revision on your motherboard match LA-J381P and 1.0, and back up the original chip contents so you can restore them if needed.

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: FDW50 LA-J381P. 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.
