I'm having the seemingly all-too-common issue charging my laptop. I'm trying to update the BIOS bus as the battery is below 10%, it throws an error.
Upgrading from DOS doesn't work either as the updater cannot be run in DOS mode. I've tried all the usual stuff (reseating, etc)
The laptop is the XPS 15 (L501X).

I have a brand new HP Envy M7-K111DX. I set the password for getting in, but when I put in what I thought was the password, I'm told it is incorrect. I have tried many variations. I stupidly did not write it down but did have a good hint. Is there a way to reset the password?

i've gotten a Insperion 1501 from a customer. The BIOS and HD require a password. Dell laughs when i call about this issue. Does anyone know the backdoor passwords for this model?
I have pulled the batteries and plug and let it sit over night, the password s still on the machine.

I have a Dell Inspiron 6400 laptop and it is currently running with the A12 BIOS version.
I notice that there are several newer versions available... A14, A15 & A17
Since the details of the A14 version indicate that it includes an "Intel CPU microcode update", must I FIRST UPGRADE with this A14 version before I THEN upgrade with the latest A17 version, or by simply upgrading directly with the A17 version, will this also include all previous updates, including the Intel CPU microcode update...

It started when I decided to upgrade the memory -- the manual said the laptop would take 2GB, so I bought 2 1GB modules, put them in, but the laptop would only read one of them, no matter how many ways I put it in. So, it was suggested I upgrade the BIOS. I've downloaded the latest, etc, but whenever I boot from the floppy I've got, and the A prompt comes up. Then what? I've been told to "execute the 1.BAT file", but not told how. I've tried typing 1.BAT.exe, to no avail, and was then told to just type in "1.BAT". This also just got me a "Bad command or file name".

Recently, my HDD and DVD drive went-off together and Dell replaced the parts.
Since new HDD has been placed, support team installed Windows 7 Home Premium and I had a excellent booting time of 20 seconds (total boot time, BIOS A07, no mSATA).
While upgrading Dell drivers for bluetooth,prompted for BIOS update and upgraded it now.
After upgrading my BIOS to A09, now my BIOS boot time itself 19 seconds, and windows boot time is 23 seconds.
Why previously good performance went down after upgrading BIOS...

I have a HP 6530b laptop, and after I upgraded my BIOS to the latest version F.13,
I found my embedded Broadcom Netlink Gigabit Ethernet is missing,and the MAC address in BIOS has changed to 1F2021222324,
I had tried some tools to write the correct MAC address back,but all of them didn't work.
I download the HP Tattoo Utilities,but I can't unzip it without password.
If anyone who have the password for these files.

I have an Acer Aspire V5 122P-0408 notebook. I am considering upgrading the 5400 rpm hdd inside to an ssd. I will also be buying a new copy of Windows 8.1 to install. I have version 2.04 of the bios now. The latest bios version is 2.12. I was wondering if I would be able to install an ssd and 8.1 without updating the bios as I don't want to accidentally brick my laptop.
If not, would updating the bios fix any compatibility issues or add any new improvements?

I just buy an Acer Aspire V3-371, then I delete all partitions in HDD and install MS Windows and driver for this notebook. Everything are OK until I ugrade BIOS form v1.05 to v1.08. Now, it cannot boot to MS Windows and shows me "No Bootable Device".
I try to reinstall MS Windows, but I see a notice "Windows can't be installed on this drive" with details "Windows cannot be installed to this disk. The selected disk has an MBR partition table. On EFI systems, Windows can only be installed to GPT disks".
