    On the Dell 7710 BIOS Download page it states the checksum should be

    Precision_7x10_1.24.3.exe
    SHA-256:
    0af441d29dbf85df04e777e6b354f2387232abc0a238608fa5a270d9f95bb6f4

    https://www.dell.com/support/home/e...wt64a&productcode=precision-m7710-workstation

    However when I download and check the checksum, it says the checksum is:
    0450419a54ab15e16a6d598f64a8ae8a62dfc84bca804cabb689989c311c986a

    I tried downloading twice thinking my ISP corrupted it somehow, but it still doesn't match.

    What do you think? Has a CDN been messed with somehow to change the bios file from what it should be, or is there a typo on the Dell website? (Can't figure out how to chat support with them now to report this or ask about this, maybe the chat support is off for the weekend.)

    It looks like this has been corrected on the web page now. Thanks!
