Description

BIOS dump for a board at revision 2.0, supplied as a 3.1 MB ZIP under the original file name "X551ma rev 2.0 X551MA F1515.zip". The uploader marked it as tested, though that is their own claim and not verified by this catalog. Technicians use a BIOS dump like this to reprogram the SPI flash chip with a programmer after a corrupted BIOS or a failed update. The model name in the file name suggests an ASUS X551MA, but confirm the board number and revision printed on your own board match before flashing.

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: X551ma rev 2.0 X551MA F1515. 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.
