Description
This is a BIOS dump, revision 2.2, supplied as a RAR archive of about 7.3 MB under the original file name "x551ca rev2.2.rar". The facts do not name a brand or board number, so the model is best confirmed from the file name and the Telegram post it links to. A BIOS dump is used to reprogram the SPI flash chip with a programmer after a corrupted BIOS or a failed update. Before writing anything, read back and save the original chip contents, and check that the board number and revision of your machine match the dump's revision 2.2.

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: x551ca rev2.2. 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.
