Dell Alienware Area-51m R2 Gaming Laptop Schematic & Board View
LA-G881P...

I was searching the BIOS on this Alienware Area-51m laptop to try to find the info for a customer, but could not find it. I discovered that info is encrypted and hidden only Dell can pull it up. So then I thought, there may be someone who needs a working BIOS dump bin file for that laptop. So, I am uploading it to help others who may need this to unbrick the laptop or fix their Area-51m. The BIOS chip was a Winbond 25Q80DVSIG. If this helps someone out there, then my labor was not wasted. I just zipped it so I could attach it....

hi, it's the LA-G881P from an alienware area 51m r1 if i understood what you asked?

Hi everyone, i got a Alienware Area 51M-R1 that recently stopped working after downgrading the bios from 1.5.0 to 1.3.2. When powering on the laptop with the charger plugged in it does not post, fans don't spin and the keyboard doesn't light up either except the power button logo.

The logo shows a green light for a few seconds and then goes off for a second and keeps repeating for about 4-5 times. After that i get 2 red flashes followed by 1 blue flash which keeps repeating. This code usually means cpu failure but i can confirm that the cpu works because i tested it on a other system...

Hi,
I maybe posted on the wrong forum so i post it here, tell me if it's not good :

I would like to flash the bios chip with the latest bios found on dell's website and we'll see what to do next.
I got the RCV file (Alienware_Area-51m_1_28_0.rcv) and extract it with biosUtilities, the result was in this picture

My first questions are: -Is it the BIOS_FV_MAIN.bin tnat i have to put on the chip, because it seems to short?
-Taking into account that there is no ssd nor hdd is it ok to flash a "factory" BIOS?
hope it's clear enough, if you...

Hi, thank you for your response,

Hi everyone,

Long story: This laptop originally had a issue with a bricked bios because of downgrading and since then it did not want to work anymore. After some searching i found a bios dump of someone else their bios and i flashed it on my laptop with a CH341A programmer (volt modded to 3.3v) and i got it to work again.

I decided to downgrade the bios again (with recovery method) but ended up getting the same result. This time when i reflashed the chip it still refused to work. I also tried to flash the EC chip (W25Q80DVSIG) but no success. When trying to power on the...
