    It's OK. Reboot the notebook, press F12, go to the Manufacturing Mode and press Fn-X to return the system to normal mode.

    it's not an error, when we flashing the bios from a pure DOS, a notebook runs in the maximal performance mode. Press F12 when power ON, and go to the normal mode (Fn-X) :)

    The only difference with the modded bios I posted and the official file from Dell is the slic table was updated to 2.1. No other mods where made. I only post files that I've tested and successfully installed myself. The A14 bios update from Dell failed testing before any modding was done. Since it did not contain any useful changes I reverted to the earlier bios which I am currently running with Windows 7 64 Ultimate without any issues. By your description of the issues you are having I believe your experiencing hardware related issues and updating the bios will not help. You need to have an expert look at it.

    Hi Guys,

    I have a D610 (actually only motherboard+CPU+RAM+external USB HDD). It is used as a small linux server. Since there is no internal HDD, every time I boot the machine, it shows "Internal HDD hard error!" , and asks to press F1 to continue. This is annoying, because I have to connect a keyboard in order to really boot up the machine.

    Could you please advise if it is possible to mod the BIOS to skip the internal HDD check. If it is, please help or show me the direction. Thanks a lot!
