MSI firmware dump for the MS-16J31 motherboard, revision 1.0, stored in a RAR archive of about 3.24 MB. MS-16xx numbers follow MSI's own numbering for its notebook mainboards, where the last digit usually marks a board variant. Such an image is used to restore a corrupted BIOS by writing the SPI flash directly with a hardware programmer. Before writing, confirm MS-16J31 and the revision on the PCB, save a copy of the current chip contents, and check that the file size equals the flash capacity.
