For my very post here I just want to thank everyone involved in documenting the process of un-bricking an Inspiron mini.
I recently picked up white 1012 at a VERY good price. In the process of updating it with the most current BIOS (A12) it hung up. Yep... You guessed it... BRICKED!
It took a few tries using a few different (well documented) methods that are posted here but it has now come back to life.
So here's a BIG shout out and HUGE thanks to all here who have taken the time and put forth the effort to provide soultions for dead Dell minies.
I'm looking forward to spending a bit of time here and learning more about the capabilities and potential of this very cool little NetBook.
Thanks again...
So do I dare try the A12 update again? I'm currently at A04.
