CIH81M (REV 1.0)

BIOS .rar 6.20 MB Shared

Firmware package for a board marked CIH81M, revision 1.0, compressed into a 6.20 MB RAR. The name suggests an Intel H81 chipset desktop board, though no brand is stated, so compare the silkscreen on the PCB carefully. Such archives usually hold a full SPI flash image for programming with a hardware programmer when the BIOS is corrupt. Back up the existing chip before writing, and make sure the image size equals the flash chip capacity; on Intel platforms the dump may also include the ME region.
