Dell Vostro 3500 i3 1st display

BIOS .bin 4.00 MB Shared

A 4 MB BIOS dump labelled for the Dell Vostro 3500 with a Core i3 processor. The note 1st display suggests it comes from the first flash chip of a working machine with video output, and the board has a second chip as well. Use it to recover a unit that powers on with no picture or is stuck on a corrupt firmware. Write it with an SPI programmer after saving the original contents, check that the chip capacity is exactly 4 MB, and confirm which of the two chips it belongs to.
