Description

The facts give a BIOS dump in a RAR archive, roughly 3.8 MB, with the original file name "T410I 09A21-3 QM57.rar". No brand, board number or chip size is listed, so the text cannot name a specific machine beyond what the file name suggests. The file name points to a ThinkPad T410i-style board with an QM57 chipset, but this is only a hint from the file name and should be confirmed against your own hardware. A BIOS dump is used to reprogram the SPI flash chip with a programmer after a corrupted BIOS or a failed update.

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: T410I 09A21-3 QM57. 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.
