Description

A BIOS dump in RAR format, marked as revision 20, with the original file name TD-W8961N REV.20 ok backup.rar and a size of about 1.5 MB. The facts do not name a brand or motherboard board number, so the TD-W8961N label is the only model reference and it appears to be a router rather than a laptop or desktop board. Technicians use a dump like this to reprogram the SPI flash chip with a programmer after corruption 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: TD-W8961N REV.20. 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.
