How to update Dell drivers and BIOS and why you should!

It's always a good idea to have the latest updates for your computer, and drivers and BIOS are no exception. Most manufacturers ship their new computers with outdated software, but whether your computer is new or been sitting on your desk for a couple years, you should head over to your manufacturers website to update it!

Thank you for educating me on this topic. My laptop has been disconnecting from my Wifi and I didn’t know why. I followed the instructions and now I’m waiting. Fingers crossed❤

Latest BIOS update on my 2021 XPS 15 made the audio not switch between headphones, made my screen go black randomly when connecting a monitor, made my mouse disappear. Rebooting resets this stuff like 5/10 times, cant help but think the new roll out of XPS laptops has something to do with this update. Worked flawlessly up until now... Never buying dell again lol

Last evening I came across what was labeled as 5 critical updates. I noticed that most of the categories were up to date, but somehow this one was not. So I ran the updates which took about a half hour as each update was checked off. I tested the function of all our normally used apps before turning in, all seemed to function as usual. Well, except the one Microsoft Money app which showed that it wasn't even set up yet. So I went looking for my associated files which I use once or twice daily, no where to be found. By now I didn't find this amusing as these files now had compiled 13 months of income & spending summaries in them. Eventually after searching all of my file storage devices I gave up and resorted to choosing a restore point and recovering what I had before Dell made a mess for me. In summary, I don't find this surprising. Dell has adopted a business practice over the years that supposedly saves or earns them money by cutting corners to deliver to the customer.

[bme]

Thanks.. I did all this but the AMD graphics driver on the site is actually not the latest one for my Inspiron 17r 5721. The one there is from 2015 and I heard that the latest came out in 2022 but I can’t find a safe to download version.

Do you need to have a Dell support plan or will this work as long as you have the SupportAssist program installed? Thanks.

I like your video. I have just updated all my drivers and bios. I still have one problem. I cannot boot from a flash drive. I have the UEFI BIOS Mode running, and have learned that becuase I have SMBIOS VER 2.8., that I can not boot from USB flash drive. How can I update my SMBIOS to 3.0 or later. I've not been able to find any instructions on the internet other than standard BIOS updates (which I have completed).
