Preparing for a BIOS update
Be sure to follow all prerequisites before downloading and installing a BIOS update.
IMPORTANT:
To reduce the risk of damage to the computer or an unsuccessful installation, download and
install a BIOS update only when the computer is connected to reliable external power using the AC adapter. Do
not download or install a BIOS update while the computer is running on battery power, docked in an optional
docking device, or connected to an optional power source. During the download and installation, follow these
instructions:
●
Do not disconnect power from the computer by unplugging the power cord from the AC outlet.
●
Do not shut down the computer or initiate Sleep.
●
Do not insert, remove, connect, or disconnect any device, cable, or cord.
NOTE:
If your computer is connected to a network, consult the network administrator before installing any
software updates, especially system BIOS updates.
