Hi I have a problem with my Dell E1705. I would like to upgrade my BIOS but unfortunately i cant. I try to upgrade from A02 to A09 with no results. Every time I try to do it the error was always popin up:


What you suggest to do? I try with different version on BIOS because i thought maybe it's impossible to upgrade from A02 to A09 but I have the same results I even tried to downgrade to A01 the same I try to update to A02 which I already got. I had no positive results at all.

My info:


Are the they any changes I can do it in different way?

Thanks for help guys.

Looks like you have some issue with some registry entries that is preventing the BIOS from being flashed again.

You can try this, but be sure that you back up your registry first!

. Start "regedit"
. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE->SYSTEM->ControlSet001->Services->DELLBIOS
. Delete DELLBIOS key/folder
. Restart the system
. Try flashing again.

Many users reported success with this trick.

cheers ...

... and of course, the standard disclaimer - you do this at your own risk ;-) Good lucks!
