DV6sam

BIOS 4.00 MB Shared

BIOS firmware image labelled for an HP Pavilion dv6-series laptop, with a 4.00 MB size that matches a 32 Mbit SPI flash chip. The name adds a short suffix, sam, whose meaning is not stated, so the exact board, chipset and revision remain unknown. Technicians use dumps like this to reflash a corrupted BIOS chip with an external programmer such as a CH341A. Read and save the original chip contents first, confirm the chip capacity equals 4 MB, and compare the board number on the PCB 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 @biosfilebins. Enginerys does not host this file.

Back up your own chip before writing any dump, and match the full board number and revision. Flashing guide →
