          Hi, I'm facing a similar problem with my Dell 3040M micro.

          I think my bios is also currupted.

          So if I understand your last post:

          1.- flash the rom with outimage1.bin
          2.- power on the dell and leave it for 15-25min
          3.- Power off / on and it's supposed to boot into windows
          4.- Update bios to 1.20

          Did you insert your Service Tag nº in the outimage1.bin file?
          During step 2, what color has the power on led?
          Will it work if I use the same outimage1.bin file in my 3040M micro?

          Thanks and best regards.

            Your steps 1-4 are correct.
            Inside bin file is my serial number. you can change it by hex editor.
            it is found on 2 places in bin file.
            Led is constant amber than after 15 min white.
            Yes you can use my bin it is ME cleared.

              Thanks for your fast reply.

              Don't you mind and tell me your serial nº (service tag) so it will be easier for me to search and replace with mine?

              I'll let you know of the results.

              Thanks a lot.

                my unit is sold.
                pull your bios to bin than find yours serial number in hex.
                remember position then you can find it in my bin.
                it is in 2 positions. change serial on both position
