Thanks Klem. I've uploaded my results to https://www.sendspace.com/file/j9dyg5 I noticed that there were a lot of errors listed in the info.txt file but I have no idea what they mean. Regards, Mark

Hiya Klem! Looks like you've been doing a lot of great work for people. I am sure that they are very grateful. I have notice a few other people inquiring with you regarding the A15 BIOS for the Alienware M17x R4 and asking for you to unlock it but I don't think that I've seen anyone send the standard A15 BIOS dump to you. Have you got an A15 BIOS that you've already unlocked or do you need me to upload mine to ask you to unlock it? Let me know please mate. Thanks a lot.

Hiya svl7!! Thanks for all of the great work you've done and advice given. I know these AW M17xR3s are getting old but some of us cannot afford to update at this time. I am on a disabilty pension so money is very tight. I have had unlocked A8, A10 and A12 BIOSs for this laptop for some time now and tried all three - I think I'm using the unlocked A 12 at the moment. There still seems to be something or some things lacking (not visible, not available or unlocked) e.g. individual options or additional menus. Is it possible to unlock everything (options) that are still locked or not visible please? If you are not interested or unwilling to have another look at this BIOS to see and then unlock further options or functions that could be unlocked, could you please at least let me know what you used to view, access and edit (unlock) the options in this BIOS?? I'm hoping that whatever apps you used have some sort of GUI interface as I am not very comfortable with HEX editing. I look forward to ANY assistance from you mate. Thanks again.

Hiya Dane! Is it possible to unlock everything please? Thanks.

"Not allowed" to download this Bios file!! Why not??

G'day! I have a Quadro K4000M with 4GB memory working fine in my M17x R3. It was a cheap way of getting an Nvidia card with a decent amount of memory for my M17x. It WASN'T listed as an "Alienware" part on eBay, it was listed as a "Dell" part on there so that's why it was very cheap.
