BIOS dump for the Dell Alienware 17 R5 gaming laptop on Compal board LA-F551P, project DDR51, packed as a 5.60 MB RAR. Compal designs boards with LA-xxxxP numbers for Dell. Such an image is used to recover a unit with corrupted firmware by writing the SPI chip with a programmer. Read and keep the original chip contents first, since they include the service tag and system data, confirm the LA-F551P marking, and check that the image size matches the chip.
