    I'm almsot ready to install the 5870m card into the alienware and I'm just making final preparations. I've checked my Bios and it is currently A06: http://i.imgur.com/fWZQb.png Flashing the bios is one of the last things I want to do and the 5870m mod thread states the first guy using the A05 Bios and it worked. I've head about getting the BIOS to A09, should I?
