Aurora R12, BIOS 1.1.23 locking computer
Alienware Aurora R12
I just updated to recommended bios 1.1.23 and it is locking my computer up sporatically and sometimes the fan is on super high and locked?

Forum users.
We have demoted the Nvidia drivers 31.0.15.4609 for Aurora R12.
Now the driver version available is NVIDIA GeForce GT 10xx/GTX 1xx0/RTX x0x0 Graphics Driver
Could you all install the above Nvidia driver and share the outcome with us?

@IceKing74 Install the new OEM Graphics driver 31.0.15.5168, April 8, 2024. Reboot when done and retest.

Mine froze four times in less than an hour with bios 1.1.23. I reinstalled bios 1.1.22 and it runs perfectly. I've had the same issues with other bios versions (not as severe), but have never had a problem with bios 1.1.22. I guess I'll just stick with it.

Hi all,
After updating the BIOS to 1.1.23 also use the Nvidia drivers 31.0.15.4609 that are Dell tested and check if the system still freezes or not.

Hey All,
Can you all demote both Nvidia & BIOS to previous versions as a workaround to check the impact? Let us know.
