    Alienware Aurora R5 dxe fail bios

    System boots up to "boot guard verified dxe that is fail"

    BIOS recovery can't be entered and F10 does not continue booting.

    Uploaded .zip is a ROM dump of the BIOS eeprom on the mainboard.

    If anyone knows how to fix this failure, help is appreciated.

    Thanks

    Excuse me while i do something dangerous


    You must have a sad, sad boring life if you hate on people harmlessly enjoying life with an animal costume.

    Sometimes you need to break shit to fix it.... Thats why my lawnmower doesn't have a deadman switch or engine brake anymore

        Alienware Aurora R15 accidentally flashed with XPS 8960 BIOS
        by drux
        Hi,
        I've had an ssd that was previously used on dell xps 8960 and then it was installed in Alienware Aurora R15(intel version). On first windows boot in R15 windows started bios update and loaded bios for xps 8960(r15 and xps8960 essentially have same motherboards).

        Now it has xps 8960 bios that looks different from alienware bios and when I'm trying to run bios update files for R15, I get unsupported platform error.

        These models have AMI/Aptio BIOS.

        Tried to edit product info with DMI Edit to change values back to Alienware R15, but it does not want...

        Alienware Aurora R8/9 Bios .bin file needed
        by kamkam336
        Hello,

        I got a new mobo from Aliexpress for my Aurora r9 and everything was working fine until i did a bios update. It did not work and now i get 3x, 7x, 3x, 6x blinking code. Dell says that is a corrupt bios. So i have the ch341 and software required, i just don't have the bios.bin file.

        Since the board is from Aliexpress it doesn't have a service tag, I have a copy of the .exe bios and a copy of my corrupted bios attached. Hopefully this is enough, if anyone is able to help me and requires any more information please let me know.

        Thanks ...

        🛠️ MSI GP75 Leopard MS-17E71 – No Display, Deep BIOS/EC Troubleshooting
        by macabook
        Hello everyone,

        I’m currently working on a dead MSI GP75 Leopard (MS-17E71) motherboard (i7 CPU, NVIDIA GPU) with a no display/no backlight issue initially. After extensive investigation, I’m at a critical stage involving EC firmware, BIOS/ME region interaction, and possible deep corruption. I'm seeking advanced insight from anyone with experience in EC/BIOS sync issues or PCH-level behavior. Here’s a full breakdown:
        🧩 Initial Issue
        • Board powers on (fans spin, keyboard lights up and can be adjusted, caps lock led lights), but no display or backlight
        • External display (HDMI) shows
        ...
