    This is pretty old equipment and may not be helpful anymore, but thought I would share.

    I got a Inspiron 530s (Foxcon G33M02) for free to tinker with, so I didn't have much to lose if it bricked. Others here have modded the BIOS, but it's old enough that all the links were dead. I couldn't extract the BIOS file from the exe and the board didn't have an OS to get temporary files from. I booted to FreeDOS via USB and ran the exe from there, which extracted the file. I left things running, removed the USB, modded the extracted file via Andy's tools on a different PC, used the same file name as the original and replaced the file on the USB. Plugged my USB back into the same port on the Dell, and let the flash continue. The flash was successful. Not exactly the smoothest operation but it worked.

    Hi, I have a Dell Precision M6300 Notebook with Intel Core 2 Extreme X9000 Processor. I can't fully use the potential of the cpu by default. At the Moment I use Throttle Stop to use it at 3.4 GHz. I know that other Models like XPS-M1730 have an Option in BIOS to set Multiplicator.

    I have an XPS-M1710 which would have the same Option in BIOS with a Core 2 Duo 7600G CPU and I will get an Precision M90 shortly that again does not offer this Option.

    Could someone please help me with a modification to make this Option available in my M6300 BIOS.

    By the way, I used AndyPs SLIC Tool to have SLIC 2.1 in BIOS A13. I tried to use A14 which would be the last Version but the SLIC Toolkit modified the file and when I wanted to apply it, it told me that the file would be corupt.

    Maybe Yen or someone else, can You help me, please?

    Can anybody help me please?

    Yours Sincerely, Jelges
