Posting a link like that does not help, the original post does. Hopefully the forum search did. That’s a 4.5 years old & temporary upload, how do you expect it to be alive or for Pacman to remember it? To extract Dell HDR executables, use Dell HDR Module Extractor after reading the instructions.

I have tried all programs that do not decode this

https://downloads.dell.com/FOLDER0508725…3520_1.11.1.exe

i need bin fill

@Fedorone - method posted in previous page at #118 extracts that file properly, I just tested now (System_BIOS_with_BIOS_Guard_1.11.1.data.payload = BIOS.bin file)
If you still cannot get, let me know I will upload for you

still cannot get it


Any one of them ?

still cannot get it upload it for me

If you cannot follow such simple instructions then honestly you shouldn’t be modding your system’s BIOS, it will end badly.

i just need to Get bin fill thetas all

They told you more then one time how you get the bin file.

@Fedorone - as plutomaniac mentioned this might not be good idea for you to mess with. Be very careful editing and or flashing with programmer or without, make sure you have verified backup before you write anything to the chip

As mentioned above - System_BIOS_with_BIOS_Guard_1.11.1.data.payload = BIOS.bin file

How to use this file ( System_BIOS_with_BIOS_Guard_1.11.1.data.payload ) to get bin file ?

i have win10 System

I uploaded bin file for you above. How to get that is linked and described on page 8 at post #118

i didn’t want to extracted to Latitude_5X80_Precision_3520_1.11.1.hdr
i want to extracted to Latitude_5X80_Precision_3520_1.11.1.bin

The .bin file is posted above in post #132 - System_BIOS_with_BIOS_Guard_1.11.1.data.payload = bios.bin (rename it to whatever.bin you want )
Ignore the mention of .hdr, that is how the extraction tool works. The only files you can get from the exe is either nearly same size .hdr file, or all the files in the extracted package above that contains the bios.bin file as I mentioned.
You are making this far too hard on yourself, and as mentioned sounds like possibly you should not be messing with BIOS modifications or updating outside of standard OEM exe files.

Oh my, seriously? Download the pre-built Dell_HDR_Extract v1.1, download PFSExtractor, rename it to “PFSExtractor.exe” and copy it at the same directory, then drag & drop the Dell executable. It is really not that hard.






if i rename the file section_0_1.11.1.payload to section_0_1.11.1.bin and program laptop it will work in the laptop ?

No it will not. What issue are you having exactly? Open your own thread for that as it’s not related to this guide.




What should I do to Make it accept programming on Laptop ?

Hi All,

I bricked a Gigabyte Z68 from attempting NVME modifications. Onboard bios is a MX25L3206E

I have ordered a CH341A and confirming with Non-Asus motherboard, there no need for FD44 editor and adding in MAC address etc. to the CAP file, (Since this is only used by ASUS)

Just download the original image from Gigabyte and program?
