[@braderdannytv]

Great explanations. Well done sir. If you update the bios, it is possible to revert it back if some wrong occur?

[@accessrandom]

Thank you 🙏. If you want to revert the BIOS after you upgrade it, you can often downgrade them to a previous version. However, I have seen some cases where that was not possible. When updating the BIOS, if something goes wrong *during* the update (i.e., the power goes out and you have no battery), then it will be difficult to revert - there are videos that explain how to fix a corrupt BIOS but they require downloading the USB-bootable version of the BIOS update.

Amazing instructions , did wonder to my Dell Inspiron 15 3000 series - Thank you sir

[@bombgamerx1680]

I did what I did as you said. I did not I did not get that screen where it updates bios. when I checked system information it is in the same old version. so I directly updated it in the dell bios flash update by pressing the f 12 key when booting AND IT WORKED I recommend when you have this same problem like mine

Can we update from the stock version to the latest without having any problems? Or we should make one by one all the BIOS updates until we reach the desired update?

[@accessrandom]

You may want to contact Dell support directly and explain your situation. In the past, I've run into both situations on other computers, where I needed to incrementally apply the updates (more rare) and where I could jump from an old one to the most recent (much more common).

It looks like the newest version is 1.19.1 on Dell's website for the 5289. From what version are you upgrading? If it is a much older version, you may want to contact Dell to see if you need any intermediate versions that you need to apply. Also - make sure that Bitlocker is suspended (if you use Bitlocker).

Can you tell me, why did you uninstall support assist?? Just curious

[@accessrandom]

I thought SupportAssist was a bit intrusive in trying to maintain the laptop. I also wanted to remove certain Dell components and other programs that weren't essential. With that said, SupportAssist can be helpful if you ever want to factory restore your hard drive to its original condition.

[@HakemzOfficial]

Why does this is the only urgent update that scares me on downloading is it really important or necessary to back up your files? because I need to update my laptop BIOS urgent but I don't have anywhere to back up my important files etc. 😭

[@accessrandom]

Most of the time, a BIOS update will not have any problems but it is a risky operation (especially if there are power problems or anything that causes the laptop to shut down during the update). I do recommend that you back up your files but that is a risk that only you can judge for yourself...

[@HakemzOfficial]

@@accessrandom I've done it completely it was successful and good thing I don't have any power problems on my laptop.

[@atharvazodpe673]

How long should the whole bios update process take? Because the reason why I'm updating is because my laptop shuts down after 30 minutes of use and so it shouldn't happen during the process.

[@accessrandom]

I sped up the time for the update itself by five times, so according to the clock it should take around 1 minute 5 seconds. There's time before and after to reboot, but it shouldn't last 30 minutes even in the worst case scenario.

I recently got a dell inspiron 13, it came with this software that notifies me of any dell firmware updates. I chose everything, disabled windows encryption, no bitlocker on my laptop. It restarted, said successful, rebooting now etc. When I got back to the application and click check for update, it doesn’t show anything anymore because they were all applied..except for the BIOS update. I tried one more time, restarted, checked again for update and that same update pops up, why??

[@accessrandom]

Is the Dell software that you're using called SupportAssist? When I go to Dell's forums, I'm seeing a lot of problems with that software, specifically with the BIOS update. I would contact Dell to see if they've fixed it (I personally have uninstalled SupportAssist and update the BIOS manually, like in the video).

For the jump between versions, you may want to contact Dell support directly as I've had to update the BIOS incrementally on some systems.

I brought a laptop back in 2015, stopped using it because I lost the charger but never cared enough to get a new one. ... 6 years later here I am struggling to get it back up and running, when I turn it on it goes to “Dell Support Assist” where it’s supposedly scanning for issues. I left it there to “scan for issues” and nothing is happening. I spent hours looking for a resolution. I got the laptop when I was young so I never really updated it, would this solve my issue? (If so how would I proceed with this)

[@accessrandom]

It sounds like you are unable to boot to Windows at all. I'm not sure if a BIOS update will solve your problem, but there is a way to update it using a USB flash drive. Unfortunately, I don't have a video for that (I'll need to consider updating this video in the future to include it), but you should be able to find instructions by googling "update dell bios using USB".

I have a Dell g7 7588, but my laptop randomly freezes. Would it be too risky to update bios?

[@accessrandom]

That's a very good question. It's hard to say whether your problems are hardware-related or software (Windows) related. If the laptop is freezing because of a hardware problem, there is a real chance that a BIOS update may fail. However, if it's Windows that's causing the problem, there is an alternative way to install the BIOS from DOS (See the "Installation Instructions" section after click on "View full driver details" on the driver/BIOS page). I'd reach out to Dell to see what they recommend.

That's a tedious task with too many risks... You'll just have to be stuck with that screen

My laptop battery health is 0% and DELL does not let me update the BIOS. This is stupid.

Many thanks 🙏 - very happy to hear that.

Dose bios update reset the bios password ?? Please reply

[@accessrandom]

That's a good question - after googling this, I found out that some Dells will ask you for the password before you update. Others have used the BIOS.exe utility to feed the password to the updater. I'll need to defer to my viewers/subscribers who may have more experience with this - anyone?

i just can't even run downloaded update files from the dell website, they just don't start..nothing happens which is so f'ing annoying. I can't update bios cus of this

[@accessrandom]

Which Dell model do you have? You may want to contact Dell about it - I know that sometimes, on older computers especially, they have a process for running the executable from either a bootable USB disk or a CD - I think it may be Windows PE or maybe even DOS?

@@accessrandom it is Inspiron 7567 gaming. i have tried to contact Dell support but their services seem like dead, it always says no available agent to serve or something like that.

[@accessrandom]

Hmm, that's a pretty recent laptop. I did some research and there were a bunch of problems with the 1.2.0 through 1.5.3 versions of the BIOS. Right now, they have a 1.10 on their website (it appears they pulled down those earlier versions). Since it's such a model-specific problem, I'd try Dell's forums to see if they have any suggestions. I'm thinking there may be sequence of version updates you need to follow (but that's just my gut instinct).

[@johnZizou]

@@accessrandom I have 1.8.1 atm and tried to install 1.9 before 1.10 but exe is not working, installing is not starting... Anyway thank you so much for your time and help..

i have dell inspiron 7370 it got updated and the system model changed to inspirn 7373, so how do i change its model back to 7370??

[@accessrandom]

I'm not sure why the model number would be re-assigned, but it looks like Dell combines the 7370/7570/7373/7573 into one BIOS update executable. You may want to contact Dell support directly to see if you can downgrade your BIOS, or whether the model number re-assignment has any negative effects.

What happens if we try to update bios from another laptop.

[@H0nex]

Hi, umm can I upgrade the cpu of this laptop?

[@accessrandom]

Unfortunately, I didn't take a close look when I opened my laptop, but just from browsing around it looks like the Inspiron 15 5000 line (that I used for the shots in the video) uses a soldered BGA socket. I'm hoping my viewers/subscribers might have better info - anyone?

[@H0nex]

@@accessrandom well ye, I've looked it up and found that the CPU and GPU are soldered into the motherboard so it's not upgradable or replaceable.

[@accessrandom]

Bummer. Thanks for the update.

[@bottomfragz1015]

The BIOS upgrade program did not appear, please help :(

[@accessrandom]

Do you mean that the BIOS upgrade was not available on Dell's support site?
