    7740 RTX 5000 is a DGFF card and not a MXM card. I do not think that the vBIOS would work with other types of cards.

    The RTX 2080 Vbios from Area51m is working on MXM 2080 Cards.
    So i hoped with RTX5000 is the same.

    I have not had many problems with my 7730 (apart from the fingerprint reader which, like my M6600, I just gave up on), but this morning I installed a Dell Power Manager update through the Dell Command Centre and had a BSOD (VIDEO_TDR_FAILURE / igdkmd64.sys) not long after I rebooted and then my laptop screen started flashing occasionally, and causing such issues. I have since deleted Dell Power Manager and reinstalled the intel driver. Has anyone else experienced anything similar? Thank you.

    Can someone give me service tag number so i can download it? I couldn't download with my service tag number.

    Thanks,

    Windows 10 media is freely available from Microsoft. (The Dell media does not include anything extra. You still have to install all of the drivers yourself afterwards.)

    With such tools i can download only "Windows 10 Pro" if i'm not mistaken, does it includes "windows 10 pro for workstations"?

    Pretty sure that the ISO download will give you all consumer editions (basically everything except Enterprise). You can pick what to install at setup time, or the installer may choose automatically if it detects your product key burned into the BIOS.

    Here's another one.

    (It is a not Microsoft site but it directs you to Microsoft-hosted ISOs.) I had the 1909 one sitting around and booted it in a VM. I can confirm that it offers the Pro for Workstations choice for install.

    It automatically installed windows 10 pro for workstations.
    However there is no dell oem logo but it's not an issue.

    Guys, I've 7730 , E-2186M,64gb ecc, p5200, 1tb nvme, 4k.
    It's a really powerful workstation, but when I'm playing games sometimes, it's lagging too much for 10-20 seconds and then it's becoming healthy again.
    When I checked, there is no thermal issue, but my battery drops from 100% to 90% while it's plugged in... I believe 240W power supply is not enough. I've 19.5V 330w power supply from clevo p870dm-g . I'm planning to change the plug and use it for dell 7730. What do you think?

    Another subject, do you recommend any notebook cooler for 7730?

    NVIDIA control panel.
    Manage 3D settings, program settings tab.
    Add a profile for your game.
    Scroll down to "power management mode" and set it to "prefer maximum performance".
    Apply / close out and try again.
