You could technically flash it Yourself if You have a board with same socket for an eprom.
Once the Bios is read and booted in to a dos , same bios chip use no purpose afterwards, You take the chip out of the board , do a HOT-SWAP and with already prepared flash tool with a bios from manufacturer site program it.
After its finished flashing process , You shut down computer, again replace bios chip with original one and no harm done to a donor board, it is better to do all this with motherboard out of the case on a bench cause its easier to get to to chip.
As far as i can see it from manufacturer it is socket-ed on far left side of the board.
Note the marking on a chip with a pin 1 so You don't turn it around and burn the eprom chip, but since You have a programmer at hand , i guess You know this stuff already.
In reality isn't that hard to do , but if You cannot find the dump, as i didn't few times, i used this method to get around when i didn't have programmer at hand.
