The A10 revision of BIOS firmware for Dell XPS M1330 results in overheating the system to an extent that the GPU and in some cases the Motherboard is damaged.
The symptoms of overheating initially result in memory parity errors and windows recovering from various video errors. As the overheating continues, windows crashes with BSOD/black screen. The serious errors include green/pink display artifacts followed by colored/black and white vertical lines followed by a completely white/black screen. If you are sensitive, you might even catch an extremely short burning smell somewhere in the above process. Finally the system cannot even boot.
If you are not able to boot at all, allow the system to cool for a day and then start with the Function + Power keys combination. When the system beeps, press the N key. After a while the LCD test begins and colors flash on your screen followed by a corrupted display or nothing and the system beeps again. This time press the Y Key. After a while turn off the system either by pressing the Power button or cutting of the power. Now when you turn on the
system, it should be able to boot properly. If it still displays the black and white vertical lines, do not worry they will disappear when the login screen appears. Repeat the process a few more times and you might just get lucky.
Once your notebook is booted properly, immediately flash it to the A11 revision of BIOS firmware. With this you will get some time to backup your data and do other important work.
Even though it might now work with the A11 revision of the BIOS, it is temporary and you never know when the sytem will slip to its prior state. Once the damage is done due to the thermal stress, the only solution is to replace the motherboard with the GPU.
