Alienware M15x Official Bios A05 is now available!

Thanks a bunch to all. I am ordering it now.

 

Hey dude, I slot in the working BIOS disc and it shows the exact same file as yours.

 

Did you try burning it with the windows image burner? LOL! I don't think there's anything wrong with the disc.

 

agreed the file seems right but i think you just burnt it the wrong way. like above stated.

 

well thank you all, I'm going to try some more burning
software, however, previous bios releases worked ok with
nero, so don't have a clue what could be happenning here.

just tried again burning a02 and it boots fine, of course it
doesn't update anything because it's the same version

anyway it's very odd that the bios and boot files do not show
up in de iso/burned disc.

Thank you again for sharing my headache haha

 

back again, burned even in my desktop and results are the same, no booting from this bios iso.

Dawnrazor, do you mind if you can describe what really happened when you boot from the disc? From my experience, you should be able to see an alienhead boot up from the cd, then you will get to a screen that asking you to press b to continue and voila!

 

thanks InappropriateName_3, that's exactly the contents of my .iso, but the image weights around 7mb, son clearly there the boot an bios files are somewhere else.

Alienewbie, the disc doesn't boot at all, it goes to windows even if I push f12 and select boot from cd, just skips it. Again, i've updated the bios before and tried every other bootable disc -like windows- and all boot fine, no clue what could be happenning here.

 

A06 is out.
