Windows 10: Error Msg. ? (A7 Me FW Download Request Mpsp Lock Failed)

Hello,

Happy Holidays to all.

Have the following msg that appears momentarily on top of
monitor when attempting to boot my non-booting system:

A7 Me FW Download Request Mpsp Lock Failed.

Any idea what this means ?

Won't go over my tale of woe with my Dell XPS 8900 now, but basically I got it to run, finally,
perfectly, after using the Dell Repair Disk I created when I bought the pc 2 yrs ago.

But, like usual, after 10 minutes or so it just freezes, and a blank screen.

There "seems to be" a correlation in that it "seems to" happen after a download from MS and/or Dell.

Windows couldn't complete the update at 30%

running this script I received msg

wuauserv service failed to stop

advice msg directed me to

net helpmsg 2182

this produced msg

requested service has already been started

Does this help?

Windows 10 issues

No updates/changes made to pc...updates from MS for Office 2010 32bit all fail-I have a 63bit system. Running sfc /scannow as admin gives msg...Windows Resource Protection could not perform the requested operation. Running Windows 10 Upgrade assistant
gives msg about wbemprox.dll not designed for windows or has an error multiple times, then says all is compatible and downloads, but fails to even try to install. I am getting really sick and tired and frustrated working on this. Windows 10 is a sick joke
to me at this point. Can you not just send me a valid wbemprox.dll file? This whole process is getting more and more stupid by the day.

 

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.
