BIOS .bin 4.00 MB Shared

Raw 4.00 MB BIOS dump labelled K42JA, most likely the ASUS K42JA, and marked test ok, meaning it was reported working on a real board. The size matches a 32 Mbit SPI flash chip, so it can be written directly with a programmer such as a CH341A. Used to revive a board with corrupted firmware. Make sure the board model and revision match yours, read and save the original chip contents first, since serial and MAC data may differ, and confirm the chip capacity is 4 MB.
