HCL laptop firmware identified as ME P38, supplied as a 616 KB RAR archive. Only the P38 model code and the ME token appear in the name. ME could denote the Management Engine region or HCL's ME product line, and the name does not say which. Useful for reflashing a bricked BIOS chip with an external programmer once the contents have been extracted and inspected. Compare the image size with the soldered flash chip and save the original dump before erasing, so the serial and configuration data are preserved.
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.
