Bios A11 update for Inspiron 7520.
I found the BIOS update for my Inspiron 15R SE 7520 on these pages.
1. http://goo.gl/dQ74hv
2. http://goo.gl/pfQBnn
I am using Windows 8.1 (orignally system was preloaded with Win 8) which is causing a few small problems like the touchpad notification light (enable or disable light-small orange LED) is not working, airplane mode has multiple entries like when Fn+F2 is pressed, airplane mode is enabled but system shows it as disabled.
So does these problems is solved in this BIOS?
Is it safe to update to A11 or is this some kind of beta BIOS?
Please also may I know the overall issues fixed in this BIOS update?
Thank you.

@Carharoth , I upgraded My BIOS to Version A11
I am using Win10 Pro on Inspiron 15R SE 7520 .
Everything works fine.
BUT I still have been facing problems with AMD HD 7730 drivers.
Currently I have to keep the Display adapter of AMD disabled otherwise the PC keeps on restarting with "thread stuck in device driver error".
This problem was faced even b4 updating the BIOS version , so any one looking to Update their BIOS version can procedd it shouldn't be a problem.

Hey Vipro,
try and install the latest amd HD77xx drivers from the AMD support website.
The Dell drivers are very old.
support.amd.com/.../mobile
Begin with the 17.7.2 drivers. Then try to upgrade to 17.10.1 drivers.
