Small 128 KB firmware image for the Compal LA-7988P board, revision 1.0, dated 2012-12-18 in the name. At this size the file is most likely an EC or KBC firmware rather than the main BIOS, but the name does not say so. The LA- prefix is Compal's standard board-numbering pattern. Technicians flash such an image to the dedicated chip with a programmer when power or keyboard faults trace to bad embedded controller code. Confirm the board number and revision on the PCB and back up the original chip.
