Description

This page covers a BIOS dump supplied as a RAR archive named STRDB.rar, roughly 4.5 MB in size. The facts available do not specify the laptop or motherboard brand, model, board number or revision, so confirm those against the original board before using the file. A BIOS dump is typically used to reprogram the SPI flash chip with a programmer after a corrupted BIOS or a failed update. Before writing anything, read and save the original contents of your chip as a backup, and make sure the board identification matches the dump.

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: STRDB. 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.
