Need Help About BIOS Upgrade
I am planning to flash the BIOS of my XPS M1730 from version A03 to version A10. However, I am not sure if it is okay/safe to skip versions A06 and A09. Also, is A10 any better than A09 or A06? Please, I REALLY need somebody's advice on this matter.
Reasons for BIOS upgrade:
- Upgrading to two Momentus 250GB hard drives and run them under RAID 0.
- Planning to try dual-booting (Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit and 64-bit)--I need help on this one as well, but let's just focus on the matter at hand.
- Upgrading to 4GB of RAM.
- Upgrading to X9000 (someday).
- Upgrading to a graphics card beyond 8800GT (I am hopeful).
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!:emotion-1:

yes it is ok to skip versions, the bios program wipes out the old and flashes the new.... Dell bios is very stable, at work we flash all or dell lat's whenever they come ou with new bios.
