BIOS .rar 1.87 MB Shared

MSI CX480 BIOS archive for the MS-14Y1 mainboard, packed as a 1.87 MB RAR. MSI uses MS-xxxx numbers for its own boards, so the code on the PCB should read MS-14Y1 before using this file. The name gives no revision or version. Technicians extract the image and program it onto the SPI flash with a hardware programmer to recover a non-booting notebook. Check that the image size fits the chip, record the original contents first, and verify after writing.

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.
