      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 13R3 bios mod request - to disable dedicated graphics (dgpu failure)
      by Mr.Ultimate
      Hi everyone, hope to get someone to help and modify bios rom for me.
      I need to disable dedicated nvidia graphics chip permanently.

      GPU chip had failed(cracked silicon DIE) and I can only use laptop without failing if I disable nvidia graphics in dev manager (but it still draws power from battery and generates thermal signature.

      Ideally if it was disabled from bios at preboot.

      I believe it is possible, because if I attatch external alienware graphics amplifier , laptop at boot will disable dedicated graphics #1 (failed one) and will only boot with AGA...

      How do I flash bios to an Alienware M16 R1 AMD edition?
      by Arc717
      I am trying to downgrade my bios on my Alienware so I can undervolt & overclock my CPU, and overclock my ram. I need to get to bios 1.2.2 for this. Dell doesn't allow downgrades, and their bios file is an exe compiled in c++, so I can't decompile it easily. I am wondering if I can flash the bios manually using a usb flasher. I would like to know if this is possible, and if so, where the bios chip would be. I know flashers are pretty cheap and the bios chip is 8-pin. There are two of these chips only when I open the back panel of the laptop. I'm not sure if there are any on the other side of...
