BIOS dump for a laptop mainboard with board number LA-A996P, a code in the Compal ODM numbering scheme; the laptop brand and model are not named. The RAR is 2.37 MB and likely holds the SPI flash image used to recover a board with corrupted firmware via an external programmer. Compal LA codes are printed on the PCB near the edge, so confirm the exact code and revision before writing. Back up the original chip, as it may hold the serial number, and verify the image size matches the flash part.
