Sorry so late with the reply. I don't come around here much anymore. I extracted v1.0.10 from the flash utility .exe on the Dell website for you.

Good luck!

So I recently acquired one of these Dell Inspiron 530. It has the g33m02. Im confused infact I couldn't figure out if there is a safe bios mod for this computer. I'd like to run 8g of ram and quad core on this thing.

I am looking for a BIOS mod for the 530S w/ g33m02 mobo. I want to upgrade my old 530s with a QX9650 cpu and 4x2GB of PC2-8500 RAM?

I also have an old EVGA GTX 650 laying around that I would like to try in it too, but I don't know if the modded BIOS can help with that, saw something that the g33m02 can't handle anything above the GTX 570?

I currently have Windows 10 installed on a Seagate HDD but might dup it to a Samsung QVO SSD if this BIOS thing pans out.

I looked everywhere on the internet for upgrading this 530S for ages and noticed the OP is quite old, I hope I can get help.

For power, I have found a 500w tfx psu that was made for a HP but I can't see why it wouldn't work for my Dell.
