M4A78 PRO - M4A78-ASUS-PRO 25X80

BIOS .rar 811 KB Shared

BIOS image for the ASUS M4A78 PRO desktop motherboard, 811 KB in RAR format, with the name referencing a 25X80 flash chip, which suggests an 8 Mbit (1 MB) SPI part. Flashing it with a programmer can revive a board left dead by a failed update. Read and save the original chip contents before writing, confirm the chip marking on the board, and check that the image size matches the flash capacity so it fits correctly.
