BIOS for the ASUS X550EP with motherboard revision 2.0, in a 1.68 MB RAR. ASUS prints the board name and revision on the PCB, and that marking should match 2.0 before the dump is used. The image is intended for reflashing the SPI chip with a programmer such as a CH341A when the notebook will not start or loops at power-on. Save a backup of the original chip first, since it may hold serial and network data, and make sure the image size equals the chip capacity.
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.

Back up your own chip before writing any dump, and match the full board number and revision. Flashing guide →
