    Just run the older BIOS file and it should just cover it up.

    Download the BIOS you want to go back to, but be warned it won´t be the same... I had A00 (new mother board) A01, A02, A03 and now A04... I´d stick to A04
    download here:

    It should be. Unless you did something during the flashing process. The new BIOS should be overwritten.

    It is possible, since it wasn´t tested by Dell it could crash, IF you fry your computer with overclock or over volage you warranty will be void...

    I've not seen anyone have issues with the BIOS mod unless they flashed it incorrectly. I guess there is the small potential for issues to arise. Every laptop is different.
