Description

The facts here are thin: this is a BIOS dump packed as a RAR archive of about 5.6 MB, with the original file name x240backup_PATCHED.rar. The name suggests a ThinkPad X240 and a modified image, but no brand, model or board number is given, so the page cannot confirm which machine it fits. Technicians use a BIOS dump to reprogram the SPI flash chip with a programmer after corruption or a failed update. Before writing anything, match the board number and revision to your own laptop and back up the original chip contents.

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: x240backup PATCHED. 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.
