ASUS 701SDX-UNLOCKED

BIOS .rar 752 KB Shared

BIOS image for the ASUS 701SDX netbook, marked unlocked, compressed in a 752 KB RAR archive. Being unlocked, it contains modifications that expose settings missing from the factory release, so use it knowingly. Typical repair use is reprogramming the flash chip with a hardware programmer after a failed update leaves the netbook dead or stuck at a black screen. Back up the original chip before writing, check that the file size and chip capacity agree, and confirm the model sticker reads 701SDX, since other 701 variants exist.
