Grey Mack is correct when he says that is an Executable File. You do not extract it; you either open it to flash the BIOS from your Windows Desktop/harddrive, or better yet, if you have a Floppy drive and W-XP , make a MS-DOS Start up Disk in the format screen for A:drive and then send the Executable file to it. Reboot the Laptop with the Diskette in the Floppy drive and type/enter dir at the A: prompt. That will show you all the files on the Diskette. The one you need to type/enter at the A: prompt for an Inspiron600m is I600MA16.EXE and then enter it to start the BIOS Flash Procedure. If you do not have a floppy drive then you will have no choice, but to start it from your desktop. I do not like this method as many failures have been reported using the Harddrive Method in this Forum.Message Edited by leduke30 on 02-17-2005 10:36 AM
