Can't rid of Dell SupportAssist Pre-Boot System Performance Check after BIOS update Inspiron 3470
I completely reset my Inspiron 9470 to factory setup, and after all of the Windows updates everything seemed fine. I then saw that the Dell updater recommended updating several things including the bios, so I I did.
There seemed to be a problem updating, as it took a long time and "transferred 3 updates repeatedly over and over, finally doing the flash.
When the system tried to reboot, it was stuck in the pre-boot system performance check.
I tried recovering back to the previous Bios without success , I tried reinstalling the updated bios, and still no luck.
During the flashback, there was some error with "ME" but when I returned to the updated flash, there were no errors.
I tried all of the suggestions including disabling secure boot, and several other bios settings to no avail.
The only way I can use this system is to hit F12 like a madman and boot from either the boot manager, or the hard drive partition directly.
I'm really upset with dell at the moment. The system is only a few years old, and this shouldn't happen.
