BIOS for the Sony VAIO PCG-5G2T notebook, motherboard DAGD1BMB8B0, Sony board code MBX-177A, revision B. The DA...MB8B0 string follows Quanta's numbering, so Quanta built the board while Sony uses its own MBX code. The archive is small at 576 KB, which suits a compact BIOS image. Technicians write such images to the flash chip with a programmer to fix a laptop with no display or a failed update. Check both board labels and the revision, save a copy of the original chip, and make sure the image size matches its capacity.
