Inspiron 7501 / Vostro 7500 - BIOS Version 1.23 anybody?

[pickledegg]

Hello. Made the mistake of upgrading the BIOS on an Inspiron 7501 (also known as Vostro 7500 - same laptop) and finding Dell do not let you downgrade easily now. You can however go back one version at a time but unfortunately BIOS version 1.23 is not on their website and appears to have been deleted so I am stuck. I have every other version necessary but 1.23 is missing.

Just thought I'd check to see if anyone has it saved, you never know.

The installation file would be called "Inspiron_7500_7501_Vostro_7500_1.23.0.exe"
