![]() The USB key creator available here will let you choose any older BIOS. Select "Legacy" to get to the older ones. Note that the Mini 9 (910) and A90 BIOS levels are not the same.

![]() I ordered a brandless 2200mah cell and should be coming any time soon. Hope it will work fine. Will update the status and the battery life I will get from it.

![]() Mine works very well, color and fit is good and the 2200mah last about 3.30hrs compare to my dell original about 2hr (20% wear).

![]() I have a 3rd party battery and the Dell does not like to charge it...so I have to fool it. With the Dell powered on and running (OS X in my case), I plug in the power adapter. The front lights on the Mini 9 start flashing white and orange: battery not recognized, so it is not charging. I close the Mini 9 lid to go into sleep mode. Still plugged into the wall power, I unlatch the battery, remove the battery, and replace the battery. (The battery only needs to move an inch or so back and forth.) Latch the battery into locked position again.
Turn the Mini 9 over and voila: the front light is steady white, charging the battery. I open the lid to wake up the machine and the battery continues to charge. I do this little dance twice a day; once at work, and once when I get back home. To Dell: This is a nuisance! Why did you design your software to do this?! |
