Description
BIOS dump, revision 2.0, supplied as a 7Z archive of about 3.6 MB under the original file name N551VW Rev 2.0 Clean.7z. The file name suggests an ASUS N551VW laptop, but the brand and board number are not given in the facts, so confirm them against your machine before use. The "Clean" label in the name may point to a cleaned Intel ME region, though this is not confirmed. A dump like this is used to reprogram the SPI flash chip with a programmer after a corrupted BIOS or failed update.

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: N551VW Rev 2.0 Clean. 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.
