Used laptop has strange BIOS
Hello,
Purchased a used XPS 15 L521 and when I went into the BIOS it says "InsydeH20 Setup Utility".
I've worked with hundreds of Optiplex and Precision systems and have never seen this.
I assume this is a custom BIOS that someone installed? Is it possible to return it back to Dell OEM?

Hi Lvangundy,
The BIOS you are getting is a Dell BIOS and is perfectly alright. It is not a custom BIOS and you don’t have to return the system back. Dell Inc. is also written at the top left hand corner in BIOS.
Please feel free to reply for any further questions. I will be glad to assist you.

XPS 15 L521 was originally supplied with InsydeH2O BIOS version A04
