Description

This is a BIOS dump for an 8 MB flash chip, supplied as a BIN file named ZyXEL 1202.bin. The facts do not give a brand-specific board number, model or revision, so check the original label or chip markings on your device before relying on it. Technicians use a BIOS dump like this to reprogram the SPI flash with a programmer after corruption or a failed update. Confirm that the device and chip size match your board, and back up the original chip contents before writing anything.

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: ZyXEL 1202. 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.
