    Posted: 24 Jun 2014 at 12:59pm
I am an ex Alienware user who just received my Krypton and I am new to the Clevo platform.

Coming from Aliens for the last six years bios updates were fairly common place and unfortunately needed lol.

So my question would be regarding bios updates? How does one verify whether the bios on the machine is current and if there are recommended updates? Or is this something I really no longer have to be concerned with?

Also I have got to say this Krypton is mangificent! My M17X R4 was no slouch but this machine is flat out awesome!

Thanks

jd

Ex-Alienware user here as well.  I think you read my review about coming from an M17xR3.

I've had my Krypton for a couple of months now, and check the Clevo site for the P177SM regularly for driver and BIOS updates, but I haven't found any BIOS files available at all, not even one that matches my current one.

I suspect BIOS updates are infrequent.
