    Make sure you are not allowing Support Assist to install any bios updates. That must be downloaded and installed  manually by the user.

    * The PC should have the latest BIOS and Intel Chipset Device Software driver already installed
    * Right click the Start menu button and select Control Panel
    * Under Programs, select Uninstall a program
    * In the list of programs, locate and select Dell SupportAssist
    * At the top of the window, select Uninstall
    * When done, look for Dell SupportAssist Agent and SupportAssist Update Plugin. If found, select Uninstall
    * When done, restart the PC

    * Go here to download SupportAssist
    * Click, "Download SupportAssist"
    * On the bottom of the browser, click Show all
    * Click Show in folder
    * Right click SupportAssistInstaller, left click Run as administrator. Follow the prompts
    * When finished, restart the PC

    * Go here and download/install the SupportAssist Update Plugin also as administrator
    * When finished, restart the PC
