Description
BIOS dump for a laptop board numbered NM-A561, made by Compal, revision 1.35. The original file name refers to an E560 build with a cleaned ME region, and the uploader marks it as tested, though that is their own claim. Technicians use a dump like this to reprogram the SPI flash chip with a programmer after a corrupted BIOS or a failed update. Before writing anything, confirm the board number and revision on your board match, and back up the original chip contents first.
For board NM-A561 the catalog also has 2 schematics, 1 boardview file, and 7 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: NM-A561. 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.
