  1. BIOS update


    On my dell OptiPlex 990 SFF, I am trying to update the BIOS from version A19 to A24 but every time I run the BIOS.exe for A24 I get "your PC ran into a problem and needs to restart". I looked at the file properties an noticed it said this file came from another computer and is blocked.I did run the file as an admin and tried compatibility mode for windows 7, which was the original version before upgrading to windows 10.The PC has the latest update 21H2.I ran sfc /scannow and it did not find any issues.I tried to install again a few times and get the same result, blue screen.

  4. BIOS update

    Should I update bios?

    I would read the warranty before doing anything. If the manufacturer finds out you did something not on their approved list of steps,for example using a program they didn't list, or a bios, etc, they can treat your video card rma like you threw it against the wall , because if something goes wrong and you didn't follow their steps exactly ,it was damaged through human error and they're not likely going to be obligated to cover it warranty wise. I don't know for sure, I just advocate that you check first , and I also advocate that you verify that it's an actual update ,because very rarely do manufacturers release updates for gpu bios'. And they most certainly wont cover a GPU "update" if its a bios file written by some dude in the Ukraine, it has to be a set process, they have predetermined often.
