Serg008 -- it works! I was a bit confused because after runing a file bunch of files and folders appeared and unlike original bios, no progress was shown. I was poking around and after 2-3 minutes computer suddenly restarted. Checked with SLIC toolkit to be sure and indeed -- SLIC 2.1 is present Many thanks to you and Tito, b.
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.
