Check the section to ensure it is newer than your current version. Preparation Checklist Before Installing
Before running the installer, take these precautions to prevent a system "brick":
: You can use a second working computer to download the BIOS update and create a recovery USB drive.
: If you use BitLocker encryption, you must suspend it (search Windows for "Manage BitLocker") before updating. If you don't, you may be locked out of your drive.
: The system will prompt you to restart. During this time, the screen may go black or fans may spin loudly— do not turn off the power .
