Description

BIOS dump for the HP ProBook 4540S laptop, delivered as a 8.7 MB ZIP archive under the original file name HP_Probook_4540S=8=GPU_216- 683494-001.zip. The file name suggests a board number of 683494-001 and a GPU-related variant, but the facts do not list a revision, chip size or whether the Intel ME region is cleaned, so check these yourself. Technicians use a BIOS dump like this to reprogram the SPI flash chip with a programmer after a corrupted BIOS or a failed update.

Questions about this file

Will this BIOS work on my board?

Only if the board number and revision match: HP ProBook 4540S. 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.
