Hi all, just checked if the BIOS 2.07 is ready for download.
Nope, up to now not available at Aleinware Germany or Aleienware UK.

Hi,

I will try. Just found an ftp side : ftp://aliendl.alienware.com/Mobile/m5550/
With the Bios 2.07.

By the way, does 2.07 only support VISTA ?

Bryan'sM505x · 07-01-2007, 02:03 PM
