    Hi,

    Due to Megaupload.com being seized by the US govt this is not available anymore, and a quick google search of the filename found no copies elsewhere (under that exact name, of course!)

    If anyone has an updated location for this, an A07 BIOS with SLIC2.1 for Dell XPS/400, I would be most appreciative.

    FYI I had this same XPS 400 running under Vista 64-bit accessing the full 4gb of RAM, so I plan to go for Seven 64-bit.

    FWIW I did this same basic modded BIOS + Vista to Seven upgrade with success on two XPS 410 units. I even did the BIOS update and rebooting via LogMeIn etc. (they are headless units for backup and tech support purposes) and it was fine. That saved a lot of hauling out spare monitors, keyboards, mice, cables, and setup.

    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) :)
