Need modified Alienware R3 BIOS - RAID
#1
Reading this article it looks like some have taken the RAID drivers from the R4 and injected into the R3 BIOS to get Windows 10 working correctly as it hangs during upgrade/install. https://community.dell.com/thread/14583

Original BIOS http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/1...Id=R305859
Aurora R4 for RAID: http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/4...erid=FKCD8

Here is piece from the article:
______________________________________________________

"1) Extracted the RAID controller BIOS software from an R4

2) decompiled the BIOS software

3) Removed the Raid bios software on the r3 A06 bios and INJECTED the R4 RAID software absolutely AS IS.. and why not? The HW is absolutely IDENTICAL!

4) Manually altered the BIOS to allow more freedom of OCing and access to settings the stock bios wouldn't allow. Also REMOVED some OC settings that WERE NOT applicable to the r3 (at least R3s that didn't have intel graphics on the mobo.. I removed any reference to OC  that as to not confuse people)

5) PROPERLY ENABLED UEFI Smile NOTE! The r3 WILL SUPPORT UEFI but Dell never added a seperate UEFI bios that you could boot and run diagnostics. That wasn't added until the r4, and the r3 wouldn't support me injecting the code into it (the r3 has less physical ROM for the bios vs the r4)"

______________________________________________________

I am not worried about the overclocking bit but the UEFI and RAID look to be the more important ones to adjust.
