Hi all,

I'm using a Dell that has the SE440BX-3 motherboard. Dell decided to take away support for CPUs faster than 600 Hz starting in A08. I cannot find A07 anywhere.

I do know from a thread few months ago that some users here have it (paging beltrixx). My account is too new to message them directly.

Anyways, anyone aware of any places I can try? I already exhausted a lot of places.

File is still available online from Dell at https://dl.dell.com/bios/XPST_A07.EXE
