Oh and Dell recommends A14 for Windows 8.1... Will A13 still work with 8.1?

@hauke can u post the link to A11 unlocked bios.. cant seem to find it in forums

Not sure about a11 but there is an A13 now incase you haven't seen it yet

Many people have many different opinions about the m14x and AW laptops in general. I'm not going to lie - I have had several issues with my m14x (BSOD's, throttling, lighting problems) but once you use a lesser laptop you realise just how much of a beast it is. And when i think back on it, most of the issues i've had are the result of my own tinkering . Certainly the throttling at GPU temp of 67C causes me to outbreak in fits of rage but not so much as trying to load... well... anything on my gf's sony thing that is newer and almost as expensive as mine.

I'm not going to boast that there are no better valued laptops out there - there definitely are (especially if u live in the US; us Aussies arent so lucky ). But they just don't have that awe factor that the alienware does. That feeling that elicits a nerdy giggle when u first open the box.

Got Battlefield 4 today so going to give this a shot. Will report back on my findings/noobie tips

OK, but i had installed windows. I have two SO inetalled: windows 8 + linux ubuntu. Both stars with legacy (becouse eufi+linux = problems).

I always use only LEGACY mode...never uefi, becouse in eufi i can't boot linux (and i need linux).

Sorry but i don't understand english very well, so i want to be sure:

Does the modded vbios works only in eufi mode? or can i use modded vbios in legacy mode?

I believe u can use it in legacy mode. It is only if you are in UEFI before using the mod that you will need to change it back to UEFI after installing it
