ASUS Z97-PRO rev 1.01 ook

BIOS .rar 4.96 MB Shared

BIOS image for the ASUS Z97-PRO desktop motherboard, revision 1.01, packed in a 4.96 MB RAR. The trailing word ook in the name is unclear, possibly a note that the dump is working, but this cannot be confirmed. Desktop dumps like this are used to recover a board with corrupted firmware by programming the SPI chip directly. Check the board revision printed near the PCIe slots, read and store the original chip contents first, and confirm the file size matches the flash chip capacity before writing to avoid a failed or partial flash.

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.
