Hello again, i was able to upload new bios but before bios i couldn't check the machine then i realized that cpu is shorted. This motherboard was liquid damage, it was working fine then it started to shutdown itself after random times. So basically i couldn't archived my goal. Definitely i need a board replacement, i really appreciated for your time and afford. Thank you so much.

Hi there!

Another dead xps13 (9370, non-vPro) here. I'm quite sure the last thing i saw was a reboot after a Windows Update and since then it won't post.
I'm hoping Windows Update "only" corrupted the bios but the hardware is ok.
It still turns on, but aside from a few seconds of keyboard backlight (turns off after a few seconds and back on when a key is pressed) a quick fan spin and a charging battery, nothing else happens. Display test on powerup also works.
Bios recovery (ctrl-esc + plug in power) fails with "file not found" blink code (tried different names, cases, usb-ports, even different usb-sticks, with different filesystem sizes).

Can someone have a look and possibly fix this, please?

Hello again!

Meanwhile I tried rebuilding the bios as described in the ME Firmware Cleaning Guide, but while it took some time, several power cycles and removal of the cmos battery to get it to power on again, in the end, the symptoms did not change at all. I tried flashing my bios backup backup and it seems that I am exactly where I started.

Any assistance, please?

Thanks and have a great day!

Hello you can try this file ....

Hello you can try this file ....

That worked on the first try!
Thank you very much!

Edit: I noticed, that the Service Tag was missing. That's not a problem, but would you mind telling me what you did to fix the issue? Or did you pick a "generic" bios for that model and my backup wasn't used/modified at all?

Hello nicely to hear that it worked it rarely appears at XPS.
Based on your service day, I downloaded the last BIOS .exe file from Dell and unpacked the whole thing.
With this information and your original file, I then created a new BIOS.
Then the ME region cleaned.
I deliberately not taken over your DMI I wanted to keep it as easy as possible.
The XPS are known for the BIOS programming often do not work.
This is actually all.
Of course you can insert your DMI again if you want.

Hey Markus! Great, thanks for letting me know!
Any pointers how to rebuild the original DMI data?
Can I use FIT to get the old data and move that into the new bios like when I tried to replace the ME Region that way?
