    I have a m17x r2, and its running win home premuim 64 bit. I downloaded the bios from alienware, however truthfully want the a10 unlocked version. Regardless, when I open winflash64 I open with admin and after about 2 seconds of trying to flash the bios with the new one, the whole computer blue screens and shutsdown... Anyone had this problme or know what to do?????
