Description
BIOS GL4A5 GL5A5 NM-C741 REV 1.0 NPCE68APA0DX BIOS dump for the Compal NM-C741 laptop board, revision 1.0, on the GL5A5 platform, supplied as a RAR archive of about 20.5 MB. The original file name also lists GL4A5 and the NPCE68APA0DX build tag, so the dump appears to cover the GL4A5 and GL5A5 platforms. Technicians use a dump like this to reprogram the SPI flash with a programmer after a corrupted BIOS or failed update. Confirm that the board number NM-C741 and revision 1.0 match your board, and back up the original chip contents before writing anything.

Will this BIOS work on my board?
