Description
This is a BIOS dump for an 8 MB SPI flash chip, supplied as a BIN file named "x550cc read ok.bin" (about 8.0 MB). The facts do not list a brand, board number or revision, so confirm the board identity against your own motherboard before using it. Technicians use a BIOS dump like this to reprogram the SPI chip with a programmer after BIOS corruption or a failed update. Read and save the original contents of your chip first, and only flash this image if the board number and revision match.

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: x550cc read. 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.
