install of bios 1.32 hagns for over an hour and does not complete

XPS 17 9710

XPS 17 9710

Dell command / update presents bios 1.32 for my Dell XPS 17 9710.

Tried twice to install without success.

What do I have to do to install bios 1.32?

Or should I not try to do that and wait for a better installable bios?

You can put the BIOS firmware on a non-bootable FAT32 formatted USB and update via the boot menu.

Go here to the BIOS firmware page  https://www.dell.com/support/home/en-us/drivers/driversdetails?driverid=ckm1f&oscode=wt64a&productcode=xps-17-9710-laptop, scroll down and click to expand installation instructions.  Review the section of updating the BIOS from BIOS Boot Menu (independent of operating system).

@Chino de Oro​ Thank you for your reply.

Did this scenario.

The bios update started (at least it said so)

Percentage started at 0% and an hour and a half later nothing had changed.

Have set bios back to the latest know good settings and can use the pc again.

But still at bios 1.31.

I think I'll fotget about 1.32 and wait for 1.33?

Thanks for your help,

Rewgards,

Bert
