I thought I was going to be able to help, but this link I found some time ago to the old PCChips website has working links for almost all PCChips boards, but not for the M701 BIOS.
https://web.archive.org/web/20061020193316fw_ … d-bios.asp#M701
That page from 2006 shows 7010325S.BIN (114KB), so my guess is that PCchips did not have a 4/25/97 release for the board or removed it or else in 2006 would show it.
Found this on the Amptron Archive ! the PCChips M701 / Fugu Tech M701 / Amptron PM-PRO1000 are all the same according to specs and BIOS info.

Link was dead but thru some tricky archive searching found it: 100325.zip
7zip says no errors so it should be OK. Attached
Edit: web link was bad, fixed stuff
Hate posting a reply and then have to edit it because it made no sense 😁 First computer was an IBM 3270 workstation with CGA monitor. Stuff: https://archive.org/details/@horun
