Description

BIOS dump for an HP laptop with board number DAR18DMB6D1, Quanta-built, revision D, supplied as a ZIP of about 1.9 MB. The uploader marked it as tested, but that is their own note and has not been verified here. 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 writing anything, confirm that the board number and revision on your motherboard match DAR18DMB6D1 REV D, and save a full backup of the original chip contents first.

For board DAR18DMB6D1 the catalog also has 2 schematics, 1 boardview file, and 1 BIOS dump.

Will this BIOS work on my board?

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.
