Description
BIOS dump for the Compal NM-B901 laptop board, revision 1.0, platform FP531. The archive is a RAR of about 12.1 MB and is marked as tested by the uploader, though that claim is not independently verified here. 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 writing anything, confirm that the board number NM-B901 and revision 1.0 match your motherboard exactly, and read and save the original chip contents as a backup first.
The catalog also lists 2 schematics, 1 boardview file, and 11 BIOS dumps for board NM-B901.

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: FP531 NM-B901. 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.
