BIOS firmware archive for the ASUS PRIME Z490-P desktop motherboard, packed as a 15.6 MB RAR. The name gives no version number, chip type or note on whether the image is a stock update file or a dump read from a working board. Z490 boards of this class store UEFI firmware on an SPI flash chip, so a technician would typically extract the image and write it with a CH341A-style programmer when the board fails to post. Read and save the original chip contents first, and confirm the image size matches the flash capacity before writing anything.
