Description

BIOS dump for the Compal laptop board NM-C871, platform GY532, PCB revision 2.0. The package also includes EC/KBC firmware, so it covers both the main BIOS and the keyboard controller code. Technicians use a dump like this to reprogram the SPI flash chip with a programmer after a corrupted BIOS, a failed update, or when the EC firmware needs restoring. The original file name lists GY530, GY531 and GY532 together, so confirm that the board number NM-C871 and revision 2.0 match yours before flashing.

For board NM-C871 the catalog also has 1 schematic, 2 boardview files, and 2 BIOS dumps.

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: GY532 NM-C871. 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.
