BIOS .rar 781 KB Shared

Toshiba Tecra A2 BIOS in a 781 KB RAR archive, with no board number, revision or version mentioned. A file this size is consistent with the small flash chips used in notebooks of that generation. Unpack it and determine whether it holds a raw chip image or a vendor update; raw images are written with a programmer to recover a machine that no longer boots. Identify the flash chip on the board, confirm its capacity matches the image, and back up the original contents before programming.

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.
