Description

The facts here are thin: this is a BIOS dump supplied as a RAR archive of about 1.1 MB, original file name "HCL xite- me- L45.rar". The brand, model, board number and chip size are not given, so the board this dump belongs to cannot be confirmed from this page. The file name hints at a Clean ME-style image, but that is not stated in the record. Technicians use a BIOS dump like this to reprogram the SPI flash chip with a programmer after corruption or a failed update.

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: HCL xite- me- L45. 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.
