Description

This page holds a BIOS dump packaged as a ZIP archive of about 1.1 MB, original file name K42Jc-AS216.zip. The facts do not name the brand, board number or flash chip size, so the file's exact target board should be confirmed from its name and your own motherboard markings. A BIOS dump is used to reprogram the SPI flash chip with a programmer after BIOS corruption or a failed update. Before writing anything, read and save the original chip contents, and make sure the board number and revision match your board.

Questions about this file

How do I flash this BIOS dump?

Will this BIOS work on my board?

Only if the board number and revision match: K42Jc-AS216. 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.
