Description

From the original post:
GPT52 LA-K201P REV 3.0 2021-09-30 BIOS & EC

BIOS dump for the Compal LA-K201P laptop board, platform GPT52, PCB revision 3.0, packed as a RAR archive of about 6.9 MB. The package includes EC/KBC firmware alongside the BIOS image, so both can be checked or restored from one file. 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 LA-K201P and revision 3.0 match your motherboard, and back up the original chip contents first.

The catalog also lists 1 schematic, 2 boardview files, and 7 BIOS dumps for board LA-K201P.

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: GPT52 LA-K201P. 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.
