acer 4738 intel for B

BIOS .bin 2.00 MB Shared

Main BIOS dump for the Acer 4738 Intel model, labelled for B, and 2.00 MB in size, matching a 16 Mbit SPI flash chip. It appears to pair with the smaller 512 KB Bb file, suggesting two chips on the board. It is used to recover a laptop with corrupted firmware by reprogramming the chip directly. Read and archive the original contents before erasing, and match the chip capacity to the 2 MB image, since a mismatched size will not fit.

The button opens the matching file on RM Schematics, or a source page if it is not catalogued there yet. The original attachment is from @ComputerBIOSBinFile. Enginerys does not host this file.
