Disable RAM onboard Asus X455LD REV 2.1 2.2

BIOS .rar 1.78 MB Shared

Modified firmware for the ASUS X455LD, intended for board revisions 2.1 and 2.2, with the soldered RAM turned off so only the SO-DIMM is used. Repair technicians use it when onboard memory is faulty and causes no display or boot loops. The 1.78 MB RAR archive holds the image for direct SPI programming with a tool such as a CH341A. Match the revision printed on the PCB, make a full backup of the original chip, and confirm the image size matches the flash before writing.

The button opens the matching file on RM Schematics, or a source page if it is not catalogued there yet. The original attachment is from @biosarchive. Enginerys does not host this file.
