ASUS X87Q

BIOS .rar 704 KB Shared

BIOS archive for the ASUS X87Q notebook, a compact 704 KB RAR. The name gives no board revision, version number or chip details, so open the archive to see which image and size it holds. Small files of this kind usually suit older laptops with low-capacity SPI or firmware hub chips, flashed with a programmer to recover a dead or corrupted board. Read and save the original chip before writing, and confirm that the image size matches the chip capacity, otherwise it will not fit.

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.
