BIOS image for the ASUS X450VC, revision 2.0, altered so the onboard memory is switched off. Repairers apply it when a soldered DRAM chip is defective and the system will not post, so the notebook can run on a socketed module instead. Flash it with an external SPI programmer and install a known-good SO-DIMM afterwards. The archive is small at 776 KB, so check the extracted image matches your flash chip size, confirm the 2.0 revision on the board and save the original firmware first.
