BIOS dump for the ASUS X453MA, marked for mainboard revision 2.0, packed in a 3.15 MB RAR archive. ASUS boards of the same model often come in several revisions, and using firmware from the matching revision avoids problems after flashing. The image is meant for direct SPI programming when the board is dead, boot-looping or stuck on a black screen. Check the REV marking on the PCB, back up the original chip with your programmer, and make sure the file size fits the installed flash chip.
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.
