I've made my mod of A17 version.
It shows error when I trying to upgrade the bios.
And I tried another file : A19 with SLIC mod . It can be upgraded and looks fine , CPUZ can identify it and windows shows the CPU name correctly , all CPU function looks working well include temperature detection. Super Pi 1M spent 16s .

That I feel confused because this SLIC mod should not contain the new microcode. But I don't see any problem ? even the speed step and IDA function working well.
I'll try to find out why it not able to upgrade the bios and try your mod again to see what will be different?

Maybe Dell added all the Penryn family CPUs microcode to support T9X00 which with 800FSB?
