v.7.11 bios done here https://forums.mydigitallife.net/threads/award-ami-bios-mod-requests.5863/page-2947#post-1359304
I tried but failed. Here is the error message as follows. "46 -Error: Problem getting flash information" What can I do next?
I finally got around to installing both that 2.3 (by mistake) and the SuperMicro X8DTL-iF_ 2.1b_Dell21_Dyn.rar slic using Dell win7pro but was unable to activate as I got some message about "blocked from license server". I have been running Ubuntu minimal server for some time and though I would use windows as I read their drivers might be better and m$soft had fixes for meltdown and spector. The linux 32 kernel was supposed to have the same fix but I was unable to get nVidia CUDA to work with it so I tried widows then went back to the .19 linux kernel which worked with the nVidia CUDA I was using. Thank you for reposting anyway.
