              Dell XPS 8940 | Manufacturing Mode? | No Service Tag
              by AustinCER
              Hello, I currently have a Dell XPS 8940 in our office for repair.
              Service Tag: HG1Y673
              The most recent BIOS is pictured below -- being available as an .exe on Dell website.


              Needed a new motherboard due to power surge. The motherboard replacement was installed and upon power up it was booting to a display message - Manufacturing Mode Active -

              Have not dealt with this issue before or what the proper steps are. I booted to the BIOS and manually entered the Service Tag, but upon each reboot -- the service tag is wiped and shows the Manufacturing Mode display message,...

              Dell 9310 (2-in-1) bios to fore manufacturing mode
              by jlxxxx
              I have read the FAQ, and other reference here to changing the EC region of the flash image to force entering manufacturing mode.
              How would I modify the dell 9310 firmware in order to force entering manufacturing mode? The goal is to have the computer ask me to enter the service tag after changing the motherboard.
              Can this be completed using the boot-up USB restore method that Dell supports in order to reduce risk of damaging the hardware further? (Ctrl+Esc keys while holding the power button)
              Dell provides this bios here: https://www.dell.com/support/home/en-us/drivers/dri...

              The Mystery of 'Manufacturing Mode' - Dell Motherboards
              by CapThatBrass
              Hi,

              Firstly sorry if this is the wrong forum for posting this question - please recategorize or move to another part of the forum if necessary.

              I've been doing alot of research recently into the world of BIOS editing and building of images, out of curiosity mainly.

              Lots of Youtube videos as well as threads in this forum (as well as others) mention the term 'unlocked' bios which generally means the removal of BIOS passwords from a dumped image to allow full access to the BIOS/UEFI menu. However, a handful mention that a prompt for the Service Tag will...

              Dell T7820 stuck in Bios Recovery Mode
              by The_Memory_Guy
              HI,

              I have a Dell T7820 stuck in Bios recovery mode. I never get Dell Boot screen or anything visible on screen. The system just gives me 3 white lights and 3 orange lights indicating Bios recovery mode.

              What I have tried to get to recover the Bios, there seems to be some conflicting advice about recovering the system.

              All of them say to download the latest bios from the dell website which is a .exe file. I have done that

              Dell E6400 PT434 type Battery Charging Stuck at 1%. Battery Pinouts?
              by Bowline
              My question pertains to understanding the control circuity inside a Dell PT434 type battery used in Dell E6400, E6410 and other Dell notebooks?

              Does anyone have a circuit diagram for the inside of a Dell PT434 battery and/or a description of how the control lines work to control this battery?

              My reason for asking is I have a battery which I cannot get to charge beyond 1% in a Dell E6410 or E6400.
              The LED bar graph charge indicator on the battery shows one LED lighted when the info button is pressed.
              I have tried multiple different Dell power adapters. My Dell...
