Dell Alienware M17X R4 (LA-8341P Rev. 1.0)

BIOS .rar 3.25 MB Shared

Firmware dump archive for the Dell Alienware M17X R4 based on Compal motherboard LA-8341P, revision 1.0. The name gives no BIOS version, so open the archive and inspect the image before use. A file like this is typically programmed directly into the SPI flash with a hardware programmer when the board will not boot or a failed update bricked it. Confirm the board revision on the PCB, back up the existing chip, and compare image size with the flash capacity.

The button opens the matching file on RM Schematics, or a source page if it is not catalogued there yet. The original attachment is from @biosarchive. Enginerys does not host this file.
