Working BIOS package for the Dell 3490 on Compal board LA-G716P. The name says it holds images for both 8 MB and 16 MB flash, so pick the one that matches the chip actually fitted. LA-xxxxP is the Compal numbering format used on many Dell boards. The files are flashed with an SPI programmer to recover a no-POST or corrupted BIOS. Read the chip's marking to get its size, back up the original contents, and confirm the LA number on the PCB.
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.
