Inspiron 17R SE 7720 BIOS update?

Question

I have a Inspiron 17R SE 7720 (Intel Core i7 3610QM Ivy Bridge). The BIOS version is A17 (dated 05/19/2015).

There does not seem to be a BIOS update listed at:

is there no Meltdown/Spectre BIOS update available for this laptop?

Thanks, Paul

Not yet - Intel is working on microcode updates newest to oldest - this system is old enough it may be a while  -- and the update may come as a WIndows microcode update rather than a BIOS flash.
