BIOS .bin 512 KB Shared

BIOS for the DG31GL board, named after Intel's desktop board series, supplied as a 512 KB binary. That size points to a 4 Mbit flash chip, smaller than on later boards. Technicians use it to recover a board after a failed update by writing the image with a programmer. Confirm the chip capacity, because a 512 KB image will not correctly fill a larger part. Back up whatever is on the chip first and look for the BIOS ID string in a hex editor to verify the model.
