Yes, this is a netbook type of PC but no idea whom the board is from, it's laptop-like based but seems generic, no writing anywhere on it.
Because it's so Generic, and company is a small one that had cheap PC's at the time and I have no recovery procedures, I doubt they might even exist, nor how to check for them.
I have 11 of these PC's so I can maybe sacrifice one to try, I realize if it bricks I am screwed up.
If you already made a BIOS to try, I guess I can try it, after your friend confirms with you, please post it.

** BIOSCOD1.ROM reintegrated successfully
** SLIC module inserted successfully
SLIC written as module ACPI5.ROM
ROM.SCR amended
SLIC performed successfully.
I'll confirm when I get my friend's file too.

I will not be able to try again until Monday to do another flash to BIOS because I am leaving for the weekend, but I can collect information off of the PC remotely as need within a Windows environment, such as the backup you requested
I have no way to know for sure if the BIOS I got is correct but it's on their official website with the correct name of the PC and the correct picture, so surely it must be correct.
Here is the backup BIOS File using the tool you provided:
Some minor progress, using the win98 boot option, or using the one I had with /x to ignore the Himem error, I get further, I now get stuck at the "Backing system BIOS ROM" step which is the third step. It just sits there indefinitely with no activity, very strange.

I am checking your bios backup and original You posted, so they seem to inner.
The backup has INTEL CRESTLNE chipset (GPX Integrated GMA X3100 graphics core)
For me are different and it's not possible to flash inner over this Eeprom it will be a brick shurely, I can try to modify the backup to insert the Slic 2.1, but it is prohibited using backup as it will give a brick.
So let me have informtion on your laptop using AIDA64 Extreme, You have make a report to read all informations about your pc. http://rghost.net/52114984

I did notice one thing, the website lists the webpage with GE2 at end of URL and lists one link to AHCI setup with GE2, however gives a picture of GE3 and as well a BIOS Link to GE3 and also has text info about GE3, so maybe they do have a bad link?
I tried their original to flash with no SLIC insertion and also it would have the same issue.

The last slic file you posted gives error 161 when trying to flash, [Part table signature not found in the interface. Error code: -161] will try in DOS mode if you recommend it.
