XPS 8300 BIOS A06 or A07?
I've just had my XPS 8300 motherboard replaced (free of charge) and noticed that it has A07 but if I put my tag into the support section it lists A06.
I've found links and references to A07 on various web sites and (most) things seem to be working so should more people be using it?

There is no UEFI support on A06. I have that card in my XPS 8300 and it works fine with Windows 10 TH2 (Clean Installation).

Reviving a old thread for sanity. I'm helping someone who is having graphics card compatibility issues with this machine and I was looking for an updated bios and I keep seeing these instructions, but taken completely out of context.
The instructions were given to someone who has the A07 bios on a board and is trying to extract it.
See the first line: To extract YOUR A07 BIOS follow the below:
This command does NOT magically generate the A07 firmware out of thin air.
"afuwin.exe A07.ROM /O" - All this command does is backup whatever bios you currently have running on your machine to a file that you are calling A07.ROM
