    Dears,

    Can anyone tell me what is the latest bios version for Area-51 m17x system. I have A03 and 'my hive' area hasn't been updated since 2008. Alienware are not responding to my queries as my warranty has expired.

    My reason for asking is that I remember to see one thread that was saying about some new update but i am unable to find it, I am having following issue

    I reset the motherboard to factory settings, it worked for a month or so but the problem is back and reset is not working
