Description

BIOS dump for the Lenovo G510 laptop, supplied as a RAR archive of about 3.4 MB under the file name Lenovo_G510=8=BIOS_U8_VIWGQ_0x96CF.rar. Technicians use a dump like this to reprogram the SPI flash chip with a programmer after a corrupted BIOS or a failed update. The facts do not list a board number or revision, so confirm the board identity on your own laptop before flashing anything. Back up the original chip contents first, so you can restore them if the new image does not behave as expected.

For the Lenovo G510 the catalog also has 15 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: Lenovo G510. 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.
