Firmware for the Acer Aspire E1-421 on Quanta board DA0ZQZMB6C1, packed in a 2.97 MB RAR. Quanta prints DA-prefixed codes on its PCBs, with trailing characters marking the revision, so compare them carefully. The dump restores a corrupted or wrong BIOS by direct writing to the SPI chip with a programmer such as a CH341A. Save a backup of the existing contents before erasing, and confirm the extracted image matches the capacity of the chip on the board.
