BIOS dump for the Sony M931 laptop on board MBX-215, supplied as a RAR archive of about 1 MB that includes both BIOS and EC/KBC firmware. Technicians use a dump like this to reprogram the SPI flash chip with a programmer after BIOS corruption or a failed update, and the EC/KBC firmware is useful when the embedded controller also needs restoring. Confirm that the board number and revision match your own board before flashing, and back up the original chip contents first.
