I've been having some freezing problems with the A01 BIOS and was hoping someone has a copy of the A00 BIOS...Could someone please PM me if you do?

Thanks,
Nitehawke

Got the BIOS. Thanks Poolek.

If anyone else needs this, PM me...I'm hoping my freezing problems go away by reverting to A00.

The floppy-based 700m BIOS flash is still avail from Dell's ftp site. If you have no floppy on the 700m just add the required DOS files from another computer w/floppy to the bootable USB linked below in order to flash the 700m via USB drive.

Flashing your BIOS inside of Windows is the same as playing Russian roulette with your notebook since the flash is more prone to failure rendering your computer useless. The much preferred method is to flash outside of Windows in DOS.

I recommend using the above zipped .iso to burn to CD the flashBIOS in order to flash outside of Windows in DOS. You do have a CD burner, right.
