I have to say, I really hate Dell's bloatware that's on the machines but I use Dell's "Dell command update" software and just let it scan the system and pick the most resent drivers for that model of PC/laptop so I don't have to go out to their support page and hunt for anything. The bios updates are included in it as well. Figured I would just mention it cause its actually decent software for getting updates if you're not tech savvy. Thanks Bri! Love the videos and the channel!

Hi Brian, Thanks for this step-by-step process and explanation. I will try your update for a very old Dell Bios (dated 2006). I am doubting there is anything out there for such an old system but I won't know until I try. The Dell is running Windows 10. WOW 2006!!!

If anyone is updating their bios througb windows update please dont. Tbere are many issues with this and habe bricked many computers and the manufacturer nor windows will accept responsibility. Keep windows for windows and go to your manufacturer for bios updates 👍

Win11 does work just fine on this PC. May not be compatible as per MS but it works fine as I have a i3-7100T. No issues. You can disable the compatibility check when you install win11

Very useful as most of my PC's are Dell - thanks Brian :)

I think Dell has gotten better with their bios updates. I accidentally did a bios firmware update through windows optional update and it flashed the bios perfect but I was totally scared. I usually do dell bios update with a usb flash drive and F12 at restart.

I have issues with my laptop.
I have Checked all the Boot Options at the Boot Options location and is at the Legacy.
But why if I Press 12 there is no Boot Options found in the Boot arena.
I'm using the Dell Latitude E5520 Series.

I have tried to update the my Dell laptop and it has worked out successful, thanks for the wonderful information and God bless you.

"Liked"! Question, is it possible that a CPU is too old that a bios flash is ineffective? My concern is that i have a Latitude e5540 and it lags. It has been reset clean of all programs and installed Windows 10 64bit.

So, Ive checked my service tag, and Ive done all the steps but I CANT find the bios update!
I just want to update my AURORA R1's bios to A05 then through A09.

Is it possible to put a normal pwm fan in these dell optiplexes. The one inside mine is like yours 4 pin but slimline connector and it's noisy.

[daffaalif]

I have an optiplex 790, I want to upgrade the processor to use an i5 3470 but after trying it turns out it can't, can updating the bios solve this problem?

[cactusstudiossouth]
