Asus N501VW rev 2.0 BIOS & KBC

BIOS .rar 3.79 MB Shared

ASUS N501VW firmware set for mainboard revision 2.0, containing both the BIOS and the KBC image, the keyboard controller or embedded controller firmware. The RAR archive is about 3.8 MB. Having the two images together helps when a laptop shows no power, charging faults or keyboard problems that trace back to corrupted EC code, as well as plain BIOS corruption. Program each image into its matching chip with an SPI programmer, after first reading and saving the original contents and confirming that the board revision printed on the PCB is 2.0.

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 @biosarchive. Enginerys does not host this file.
