Description

BIOS dump at revision 3.3 with an 8 MB chip size, supplied as a BIN file named BACKUP_X55LD_REV_3.3_ORIGIN.BIN. The facts do not give a brand, model or board number, so the X55LD name in the file name is the only identifier available and should be checked against your board's labels before use. A BIOS dump like this is used to reprogram the SPI flash chip with a programmer after the BIOS has been corrupted or a firmware update has failed.

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: X55LD REV 3.3 ORIGIN. 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.
