BIOS dump for the HP Compaq Presario CQ43-101TU notebook, stored in a 1.07 MB RAR archive. The name states only the model and SKU suffix, with no board number or BIOS version given. It is meant for restoring corrupted firmware by writing the image to the SPI flash with an external programmer when the machine powers up without display or fails POST. Before writing, read and keep a copy of the original chip, confirm the PCB matches the CQ43 platform, and make sure the image size equals the flash size.
