T61 24S08.bin

BIOS .zip 46.2 KB Shared

Small firmware dump for the ThinkPad T61 labelled 24S08, at only 46.2 KB in a ZIP archive. The size points to a serial EEPROM, and the 24S08 label most likely refers to a 24-series 8 Kbit chip, but the name gives no further detail, so check the contents. On ThinkPads such EEPROMs can store passwords and system data, and technicians rewrite them with a programmer. Read and save the original chip before writing, and verify the chip marking on the board matches.
