AW15R3 BIOS documentation available?
I have checked available manuals on the Dell support pages for my AW15R3, but cannot find any documentation about the BIOS settings. Is there no documentation on this? Some of the BIOS settings are self-explanatory, but... not all of them.

Hi pcraenme,
Check the BIOS overview > System Setup Options on the online Alienware 15R3 Service Manual here.

Thanks for the quick answer. I had a look, but some descriptions/values don't match what is in the BIOS.
For example:
Express Charge = Allows you to charge your computer battery using Standard Charge or Express Charge mode.
Default: Express Charge.
If I look at my BIOS settings, than there are 2 options: Express Charge, Auto
So there is no 'Standard Charge' setting and 'Auto' is the default setting.
And what do these settings mean? I searched on the internet and Express Charge will charge your battery faster, but people advise against using it because it could harm your battery over a longer period of time. So I left it on the default 'Auto' setting, but.. what dus 'Auto' mean?
