Description

BIOS dump, PCB revision 2.1, supplied for a 16 MB flash chip in a RAR archive of about 7.8 MB. The original file name points to an X403FA board, with NB8619 and pcb_mb_v4 in the name, though the brand and model are not confirmed in the catalog data, so check the board markings on your own board. A dump like this is used to reprogram the SPI flash chip with a programmer after a corrupted BIOS or a failed update. Confirm that the board number and revision match yours before flashing, and back up the original chip contents first.
