Description

This is a BIOS dump for a 1 MB SPI flash chip, supplied as a BIN file named MX25L8005_20181018_123316.BIN. The file name suggests it was read from an MX25L8005 chip, but no brand, model or board number is given in the record, so confirm the source board before using it. Technicians use a dump like this to reprogram the SPI chip with a programmer after BIOS corruption or a failed update. Check that the board number and revision match your machine, and save the original chip contents before writing anything.

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: MX25L8005 20181018 123316. 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.
