Inspiron G7 15-7588, BIOS 1.10.0, Nvidia error code 43
Anyone experience this? I had this issue since last nights update to the 1.10.0 bios. As soon as I would do anything that would use the Nvidia GTX 1060 Max-Q card, it would hang the system and then issue this error. I tried Dells supported driver and latest from Nvidia and no change, until I rolled the bios back to 1.9.0. Now the issue is gone. I have been playing ARK for the last hour, and it has yet to have any issues on 1.9.0.

Just a bit of advice concerning BIOS updates. Many users feel that they have to update the BIOS anytime a new version is released. Unless you are experiencing an issue that the new version Specifically addresses, I would never update the BIOS on a system that is working properly. I have seen too many posts from users that have seen their system go from trouble free to errors and system crashes simply because they wanted the newest BIOS version. Don't misunderstand, in some cases a BIOS update can correct a problem you may be having but by and large the old axiom, "if it ain't broke don't fix it" really applies here.

Agreed. However as this was a security fix for the intel ME, I thought it would be harmless.

Well it appears it is not the bios, I fear that the Nvidia card is failing. I will be launching a service request.

System will be sent in for mainboard replacement. Kudos to Dell technical support.
