Disable RAM onboard Asus K50IJ X5DIJ r2

BIOS .zip 1.41 MB Shared

Modified BIOS for ASUS K50IJ and X5DIJ notebooks, revision 2 board, with the onboard memory disabled. It lets an older machine boot using only the module in the memory slot when soldered DRAM is faulty. The 1.41 MB ZIP archive contains the image for direct programming of the BIOS chip with an SPI programmer rather than a software flash utility. Verify the board revision printed on the PCB, read and keep a copy of the original chip, and check that the file size suits the installed flash.
