About this board
This thread is for the Dell Alienware M17XR4 A12.
Compare the board number printed on the PCB (near the RAM slots or under the battery) with the files before you flash. Board revision: 1.2. Match the revision as well as the board number.
The BIOS image is 8 MB, so the SPI flash is 64 Mbit (W25Q64, MX25L6406 class).
Files usually needed for this board
- BIOS (full SPI chip dump, .bin)
- EC / KBC firmware, if the board uses a separate EC chip
- Schematic (PDF)
- Boardview (.brd / .bdv / .cad)
Usually needed when the laptop powers on with a black screen after a BIOS update, is stuck in a boot loop, or is locked with a BIOS password.
Before flashing, always read and save the original chip. It holds the serial number, UUID, MAC address and ME data for that exact machine.
