ASUS BIOS version 2301 for the M4A78 desktop motherboard, an AMD-based board, delivered as a 636 KB ZIP. It is likely a vendor update file, which can be flashed with the board's built-in utility or written to the chip with a programmer when the board will not post. Make sure the exact model variant, such as plain M4A78 rather than another suffix, matches the board. Keep a backup of the existing BIOS chip and verify the image size before programming.
