    Guys, I have a question: how does one update the M17X's BIOS. I have my M17X for 9 months now and was wondering if there is an update. If there is, where do I get it and how do I install it? Thanks for the help in advance!

    dell.com/drivers

    go to M17x R1 or R2 depending on what you have

    select your windows version and it will show you bunch of drivers

    you will see explicitly bios file as well.

    installing is really self explanatory...

    Thank you. Much simpler than I thought.
