Apple MacBook A1181 M42c MBP (820-1889-a) BIOS

BIOS .zip 1.14 MB Shared

EFI firmware dump for the Apple MacBook A1181, project M42c, logic board 820-1889-A, compressed as a 1.14 MB ZIP archive. Apple identifies logic boards with 820-xxxx numbers followed by a revision letter, and the dump should match both. Technicians program such an image to the boot ROM chip with an SPI programmer to fix no-boot or no-chime faults caused by corrupted firmware. Read and keep the original chip contents, as they hold machine-specific data like serial number, before writing.
