    Have you get any progress for O755 to fix the logo Dell missing when it's booting?

    Thanks for your hard work

    Does the modded SLIC 2.1 remains after performing official BIOS updates in future?

    I wouldn't think so it would really depend on what modules are updated in bios

    If I update to slic 2.1 and then wanted to eventually reinstall win xp, would I be able to? And if not then would I be able to if I first flashed my bios with an official dell bios update/revision if what you said above is true?

    THanks.

    9400/E1705 clarify

    I downloaded 9400/E1705 DOS kit, file name 8400-e1705.zip (8 just a typo).
    There are 3 files: bios.gz, batch file, dell exe file.
    The batch command is MP061A09 -writegzfile.

    I have read some tutorials, they all use -readgzfile,
    Why -writegzfile here? anything special for 9400/E1705 ?

    BIOS flash is a very serious matter, I am very careful.

    1) Please check that mod version was flashed. In the package are two versions original and modded.
    2) Post RW-Everything Slic output

    Thanks for the response, when you get a working mod let me know, I'll post it in the start of this thread, everybody with a dell seems to be coming here (I probably would too)
