    Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum. I successfully formatted my notebook after 48 hours of hell, and now I'm in search of the 0F02 BIOS version after reading this post:

    http://forum.notebookreview.com/alienware/247418-stay-clear-0f03-xp-bios-m9750.html

    and I want to see what results are yielded for me. I have access to the 0F04 BIOS but from what i've read, it doesn't seem like it would do me much good.

    I'm running these specs

    T7600 Core 2 Duo @ 2.33 GHz
    4GB RAM
    Dual GeForce Go 7950 GTX in SLI
    2X 120GB HDD in RAID 0
    Windows Xp Pro 32-bit (I tried going to 64-bit but got a ridiculous error over and over and decided to give up)

    If anyone has access to this old BIOS (0F02) then I'd appreciate it if you would let me know. Maybe we could do some e-mailing.

    Anyway, thanks for reading. This forum is great!

    I only have access to 0C02 as the oldest or 0F03 (XP), when I ran XP I just used the vista bios anyway. The vista BIOS is the one which also allows the ATI 3870's to work in crossfire. I'm actually surprised to find someone still using XP on this machine when it runs Windows 7 fabulously.
    I seriously doubt that one post is anything big to go by, it's a single post from a single user who had a bad experience, I dont see multiple posts on the topic thereforre I wouldnt say there was a problem.
