BIOS image for the Gigabyte GA-H81M-H desktop motherboard, revision 2.1, packed in a 2.9 MB RAR archive. Gigabyte publishes boards per PCB revision, so check the rev marking near the slots matches 2.1 before use. A dump like this is written to the SPI flash chip with a hardware programmer when the board fails to POST after a bad update or corruption. Read and save the existing chip contents first, and check that the image size matches the flash capacity, because a mismatched file will not fit properly.
