BIOS .rar 752 KB Shared

Original BIOS image for the HP Pavilion dv5z, the customisable AMD based dv5 configuration, labelled asli, in a 752 KB RAR archive. No board number or revision is given, so check the motherboard label against your unit before flashing. Dumps like this are written to the BIOS flash chip with an SPI programmer to revive a laptop that will not post. Verify the extracted file size matches the chip capacity, and read and save the current chip contents first so a fallback is available.
