Awesome thanks

Ill need the xps motherboard. Its not a desktop PC.

Screen is on

The battery is being charged and the computer holds a charge. Power is not the issue, sadly. Something to do with the boot as I cannot even access BIOS.

Was not actively updating the BIOS AFAIK. The computer powers and sits at the Dell logo perpetually.

My laptop recently died (just outside of extended warrant, go figure) so I took it to the repair shop after testing what I knew how to do and was told that the BIOS was corrupted. Both the repair shop and Dell said that the only way to repair the laptop would be to replace the entire motherboard which includes a 1050m. This totals to about 500 dollars, no matter what route I take. My question is if there is a way to flash the BIOS without booting or to replace the BIOS chip, etc. I would like to be able to use this laptop again or at the very least sell it for more than parts. I am willing to solder or do things more invasive because the thing is basically useless anyways so damaging the MOBO is not a huge concern. Any advice is appreciated.

Um can I here a, "I only have an old logitech keyboard" from the audience? I have no fully functional peripherals

Thats insane the way it can do what it can. Were it not so expensive i would say it allows consumers to finally enjoy projection without needing to havea dedicated viewing room. Being able to throw the image to 60" inside of a standard bedroom is insane.

Well considering I don't have a fullly functioning keyboard I believe I have you all beat. I have an old laptop that doesnt register certain key presses, not because of junk and gunk cause i keep my stuff clean but rather because its just that worn out.

Would love to add this to my setup. Really missing a good pair of headphonez

These all look fantastic and would love to add them to my computer desk
