I'll be putting a centrino ultimate-n 6300 card into the Laptop, if that helps.

Thanks in advance.

Thank you for your quick reply.  Here's the .zip file (I changed it to .zip).


Backup tools worked fine.

Universal BIOS Backup failed immediately.  BIOS not discovered.

I logged into the BIOS screen and Secure Boot in enabled. Do I have to disable that and run the tests again?
I got your bios dump with Backuptools12 so we have good news!
We can try to flash mod with Intel FPT.
And now tell me what is text you get when new card plugged?

I'm waiting on the card to arrive in the mail.  I should have it by March 14 or 15.  I'll get back to you about it.
Thanks for your help!
I believe we can cancel this thread in full.

I put an Intel Centrino ultimate-n 6300 card into the Dell laptop & added the 3rd antenna and booted it up. It's approved. It was working instantly on 5GHZ.

Thank you for your time. I've worked on Dell systems before and expected it to be locked down, I was pleasantly surprised.
Ok, you havent whitelist in bios, that is good.
If you wish, we can unlock hidden tabs so you can change some options like Power UserSmile
