Hi I have two dump bios first - worked and have first realese of bios second - updated and not worked - started and laptop show me two orange/one white is a CPU failure. Who can help me?
This is in wrong section of forum (mod BIOS results), so I've moved it for you.
Are these programmer dumps, like CH341A? What CPU do you have? When you say "updated" what does that mean? Did you modify the BIOS and try to update, or did you mean you updated using Dell stock BIOS update package?
Please don't send PM's for help on BIOS edits, I can't help with BIOS in PM's. Please make a thread and I will try to help as soon as I can - thanks! If you appreciate my efforts and are willing to donate to help improve my hardware, gift cards work for me (Amazn, NuEgg, eBa) - send me a PM I view the forum like this, please bump your thread 1x every 24-48 hours if no reply
What is the CPUID? This is an ES CPU, so it may not work due to that, or could be corrupted BIOS. I need you to answer my questions above. Also, please link me to the BIOS you tried to update to (if you tried to update to newer version from Dell). If you modified the BIOS yourself, and did not try to do a Dell update, let me know. I do see some issues in the bad BIOS, but I need to see the stock BIOS first to know if it's normal, or to try and figure out what happened.
You will need flash programmer to fix this, I assume you have this now, correct? If yes, dump both BIOS chips and send me the contents as they are, in a zip/rar

Maybe language barrier? Yes, I see first link is good, working, OK BIOS - understood. Second link is a copy of your bad BIOS, somehow you dumped it (?) This is what I am asking about >> Are these programmer dumps, like from flash programmer such as CH341A or other?
Did you modify BIOS and flash it? Or, did you simply try to update BIOS using Dell normal update process?
Please link me to the Dell download page of the BIOS you tried to update to (Second BIOS, stock from Dell) if you tried to update to stock BIOS from Dell using stock method.

Nope still nothing up top for Link to second update version BIOS Download From Dell - give me URL To BIOS download page at Dell's website for your exact model and the exact version you used. Additionally, there is not even a stock extracted BIOS from Dell at top, which I don't want anyway, but just saying that's not there either.

Is this the exe you used? https://downloads.dell.com/FOLDER0572814..._3540_1.4.2.exe No, that is not same version, well same version but different BIOS build date (So Dell switched BIOS and didn't change version, they probably know something is broke in exe you used!). Please upload for me the exe you used

that's not it either, maybe one right before this one, it's only a month newer than what you flashed that failed (So they've changed this BIOS version three times without changing actual version!) Do you not have the exe you used on your desktop or downloads folder anymore?
