MSI firmware archive covering boards MS-16W1 and MS-16W21, version 1.0, compressed to 18.2 MB. MSI numbers its notebook boards in the MS-16xx pattern, and the matching board number is printed on the PCB. The dump is used to recover laptops with corrupted BIOS by writing the SPI flash with a programmer such as a CH341A or RT809. Read and keep the existing chip contents before writing, and make sure the image size equals the flash capacity, otherwise it will not fit.
The button opens the matching file on RM Schematics, or a source page if it is not catalogued there yet. The original attachment is from @biosarchive. Enginerys does not host this file.
