Bad news. I flashed xps 630i with the modded bios in dos. I Think i Bricked my board. Everything was going fine. Backed up old bios fine, Updated new bios fine then pressed f1 to restart. PC started fan were maxxed. And will not post. I can pull the bios chip from board, i just need to find a place in my area i can bring it to. PLCC Chip on mobo (SST49LF080A) Anyone in the Bronx,NY area have the tool to re flash? Or the name of the tool and/or a place that sells them to reflash the bios chip?
Request for learning Just to learn how to do it by myself... Every time i launch : V1710A12.exe -writehdrfile , it just decompress in windows\temp and launch winphlash.!!! Is there any way i can extract hdr and rom from this bios from dell (vostro-1710) thanks
That is because it is a Phoenix style bios, that means it needs to be modded as any standard phoenix bios, Takasuite has been doing most of those in this thread..
shakeyplace: Worked a treat on Dell Precision M90. Windows 7 is activated now. What a biosmod! You have a donate button?
@shakeyplace It might be worth putting a note by the Mini 9 entry on the first page that Mini 9 A05 is the same bios (apart from the splash screen) as A90 A04. ie that the eqivalent A90 revisions are one below the Mini 9s.
