[Request] Need BIOS Dump for MSI Z170A Gaming Pro Carbon

Hello everyone,

I’m looking for a full, uncompressed BIOS dump (8 MB, .bin format) for the MSI Z170A GAMING PRO CARBON motherboard, model code E7A12, preferably version 7A12v1A or the most recent official stable version.

My current BIOS is corrupted and I’m unable to access the UEFI interface or use M-FLASH or Live Update. Therefore, I need the complete SPI dump to reprogram the BIOS chip externally using a CH341A programmer.

The file must be a clean 8 MB binary suitable for direct flashing via SOIC8 clip and SPI interface (not the 16 MB .1A0 or .1C0 update package provided by MSI).

Any assistance or shared files would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much in advance.

Best regards,
HYOMA

Isn’t this a single 16Mbit IC, if no reservations on “personal” ME FW image why cant you write the full image from MSI?
Or merge/cut your dump with the MSI file (0x800000)
