Hey. Good video, but I have a wierd problem. When I try do downgrade using your mathod I don't see the info about the downgrade version. What does that mean? I try to do it on a Dell optiplex 3050 micro.
Hi sir I have dell latitude e6430 I try to flash downgrade My bios version A24 to A13 After this process my display is not show What can i do Plz suggest me
Hi, maybe you can help, i updated the drivers on my 7567 dell gaming laptop a few weeks ago and ever since than it started stuttering , i didn't have that problem before. I tried reverting to a previous versions but i keep getting errors. Any idea what i have to change? It stutters while gaming or watching youtube. Thanks in advance
I have the same laptop and the same problem, my cpu clock speeds go down to 900ghz and the cpu undervolts. All this after I updated the bios I wish you the best of luck as I am trying as well
Hi, I've unintentionally upgraded my laptop BIOS to A22 yesterday and I've noticed that the computer does not go to sleep when I command it to, suffice to say that it always went to sleep mode and would wake up without a trouble. Now it just shuts down in a not secure way... I've been searching everywhere to why and I think it was really the BIOS update that triggered this behavior. Went through all your steps to downgrade the BIOS (used A19 as I think it was the version I had previously) and even using /forceit command or /s /f it doesn't downgrade it... When it gets to the "Preparing to Update" loading stage, the laptop just reboots normally. *sigh* Any ideas of how could I downgrade the BIOS in a different way? Laptop is a Dell Latitude E6520. Thank you in advance
Hello topicsx, I'm going to star saying "It is not advisable to downgrade the Bios version of a computer unless it is due to company policies or something it is not working correctly, because teh downgrade process may render your computer unusable". Now having said that, you can try updating the Bios version using a WinPe USB, I have a video for that: ruclips.net/video/GlrZhRkUYG8/видео.html Hope it helps Thanks for the comment!
@@MyITWorkshop Hi again, thank you for your help. I understand you saying that downgrading the Bios is not advisable, but in my case I don't see any option since I think the new Bios does not support one of the S3 sleep states somehow... I followed your advice and since I am currently using windows 8.1 on this machine I had to install ADK instead AIK but could execute the bios update .exe after booting the WinPe usb drive. My steps were: copype amd64 (since my machine is 64bit based) to new WinPE folder, mounted .wim file of WinPEfolder, added bios update .exe, unmounted .wim file, made bootable usb through MakeWinPEMedia /UFD, booted computer through USB Drive, and executed the bios update .exe with /forceit in the cmd of wpeinit. Got the following message: "The subsystem needed to support the image type is not present". Could it be that I should have used x86 instead of amd64? Thank you again for your support
Ok, tried with the x86 PE and it did the trick of executing the bios update. It loads the file and reboots, but just boots up normally :( running out of ideas... Makes me think that dell has put some code to disable any kind of bios downgrading
@@topicsx Hi, Yes, that's 100% true, that happens when the latest Bios update fixes 1 or many vulnerabilities. Therefore, the manufacturer, HP/DELL/ASUS etc, locks the the Bios downgrading process. They do this in order to avoid the system being exposed again.
@@topicsx Now, the last thing I would try, if you are using windows as your OS, is try downgrading it from Windows itself, download the Bios update .exe file and just run it. I have to repeat this again: "generally, it is not a good idea to downgrade your computer bios version for it may render it unusable" Thanks for the comment!
Hello Night Diver TV, It is not advisable to downgrade the Bios version of a computer unless it is due to company policies or something it is not working correctly with your computer after a Bios update. If none of the above is true. Then, i do not see the point of doing it. The short answer is: Downgrading your computer Bios version might render your computer unusable. Hope it helps. Thanks for the comment!
how do i get those files in your flash drive. I tried watching your videos and doing the other method with rufus with autorun but where do i get those files you have in this video. When i try the other way with autorun it says Error: BIOS rom file (gen-X00.cap) not found! please help
Hello, That Guy, The video for that is in the video description. It's called "Create a Dell Bootable USB Drive". Besides, this is part 2, part 1 has a lot of info about downgrading the Bios version. Thanks for the comment!
@@MyITWorkshop part one didnt work it left me in bios with it saying error: bios rom file (gen-x00.cap) not found, and in the create a dell bootable usb drive video i only learn the first method getting the autorun application. please help
Thank you so much Bro

Hi all, so after looking around I found and uninstalled the dell support assist and the stutter disappeared, maybe this would help others too
how to use command for share? Directory
We need to only copy that .exe file on the USB and that's it?
you first need to create a dos bootable usb drive then copy the bios exe to it
