Description

BIOS dump for a laptop on board number NM-C121, from the Compal ODM, delivered as a RAR archive of about 5.8 MB. The original file name refers to a Xiaoxin-14IWL (2019) and is marked "BF BIOS 100% ok", though that wording comes from the uploader and is not something the catalog has checked. Technicians use a dump like this to reprogram the SPI flash chip with a programmer after a corrupted BIOS or a failed update. Confirm that the board number and revision match your board before flashing, and back up the original chip contents first.

The catalog also lists 3 schematics, 4 boardview files, and 14 BIOS dumps for board NM-C121.

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-C121. 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.
