820-00165 cleanME configured

BIOS .zip 7.89 MB Shared

Apple logic board firmware for board 820-00165, supplied as a dump with the Intel Management Engine region cleaned and configured. A cleaned ME region lets the board start without ME errors after replacement or corruption, which makes the file useful when the original BIOS chip contents are lost. Apple marks its logic boards with 820-xxxxx numbers printed on the PCB, so confirm the exact match. Write the image with an SPI programmer, keep a backup of the original chip, and check the image size equals the flash chip capacity.
