Firmware for the Toshiba Satellite L500 on board KSWAA LA-4981P, the version with Intel graphics. LA- numbers follow Compal's board scheme, and KSWAA is the Compal project code, so Compal is the ODM. The 1.09 MB ZIP is intended for programming the SPI BIOS chip with an external programmer when the machine is bricked or will not post. Confirm the LA number and graphics type on the PCB, save the original chip contents, and check that the image size equals the chip capacity.
