BIOS-K53SM-214

BIOS .bin 4.00 MB Shared

BIOS image for the ASUS K53SM laptop, apparently version 214 judging by the number in the name, supplied as a raw 4.00 MB binary. A dump like this is written to the SPI flash chip with a programmer such as a CH341A when the board fails to POST or a BIOS update has bricked it. Before flashing, read and save the original chip contents, confirm the chip capacity is 4 MB so the image fits, and check that the board really is a K53SM rather than a similar K53 variant with different hardware.

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.
