BIOS .bin 1.00 MB Shared

Raw BIOS binary for the HP Compaq Presario CQ40, tagged with the 532TU configuration, 1.00 MB in size. In HP naming, the TU suffix usually marks an Intel-based build with integrated graphics, so check the board configuration first. A 1 MB image fits an 8 Mbit SPI chip. Use a programmer such as a CH341A to read and save the existing contents, then write and verify this dump. Compare the motherboard number on the PCB if a known-good reference is available.
