DELL OPTIPLEX 990 E93839 KAO120 25Q16 2MB BIOS

BIOS .rar 174 KB Shared

BIOS dump for the Dell OptiPlex 990 desktop, with board identifiers E93839 and KAO120 and a 25Q16 flash chip of 2 MB capacity, packed as RAR. The 25Q16 is a 16 Mbit SPI part, so the image should be exactly 2 MB to fit. Technicians use it to reprogram the chip off-board or in-circuit when the system fails to start after a corrupted update. Back up the original chip before writing, since it may hold the service tag, and confirm that the board markings match those in the name.
