    You can flash in any case – flashing is always a risk.
    In your case you have complete match – the memory amount is different only.
    Didn’t I describe good enough how to determine match? :confused:
    Although I’m looking for D610 with 6 (00..05) child tables in RSDT – there are BIOS code parts to create it under certain condition(s)

    I actually flashed my GX520 with the SLIC2.1 GX620 BIOS as listed and the SLIC Toolbox reported invalidated SLIC. This is very strange. Would someone please see if they are kind enough to do a GX520 SLIC 2.1 BIOS? Thanks a million.

    Hello. Been watching your progress on Modding the Dell 9150 A07 bios. I'm interested in using it on my Dell 9150.
    I'm a little confused. Were you guys completely successful in doing the Mod. Is it safe to use. Any information would
    be so appreciated.

    Thank You! ;)
