BIOS dump for the MSI GE60 2QE Apache Pro, delivered as a 3.0 MB ZIP archive named GE60 2QE APACHE PRO_MS-16GF_E16GFIMS.80B.zip. The file name points to the MS-16GF board and BIOS version E16GFIMS.80B, though the facts do not confirm the board revision or the flash chip size. 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, confirm that the board number and revision match your machine, and back up the original chip contents first.
