Description

From the original post:
SONY MBX-237 REV 1.3 BIOS & EC WORKING BIOS 100%

Sony MBX-237 laptop BIOS dump, board revision 1.3, packaged as a RAR archive of about 4.5 MB. The uploader marks it as tested and it includes EC/KBC firmware, so the embedded controller image is part of the set. Technicians use a BIOS dump like this to reprogram the SPI flash chip with a programmer after a corrupted BIOS or a failed update. Before flashing, confirm that the board number MBX-237 and revision 1.3 match your motherboard, and save the original chip contents as a backup.

The catalog also lists 2 schematics and 6 BIOS dumps for board MBX-237.

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: Sony MBX-237. 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.
