Windows 10: Error A7 ME FW Downgrade Request ME Spilock failed

How do I fix this. It causes my computer to lock when it goes to sleep.

a request for device descriptor request failed


Maybe it's time to step back from the current efforts, and start over. I suggest you read over this excellent tutorial and try all of its steps: [Solved] Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed) for Windows 10 - Driver Easy. The one that may provide you with some easy relief is the one where you uninstall the device whose descriptor is failing, reboot, and see what happens when device enumeration recurs during boot-up. If you're lucky, it will fix itself.

Error Msg. ? (A7 Me FW Download Request Mpsp Lock Failed)


If you just search A7 ME FW you will see lots of hits but instead of the word download you see downgrade.

Me appears to be Intel Management Engine, FW is Firmware

In a previous post I suggested you remove your CMOS battery. Understanding you may not want to do that. Can you enter your BIOS and load defaults?

I would also boot from a USB with Windows 10 on it. I would have my machine disconnected from internet. Assuming it comes up, and works longer than 10 minutes, don't connect to Internet until you have shut off driver updates in Dell and Windows.
