Same recommended updates keep appearing

Hi all - Dell Client System Update keep showing the same recommended updates as available even after they have been installed and the laptop rebooted. Why is this?

Thanks

    Yes - after installation and rebooting, clicked on "Check For Dell Updates" again, waited a while, and got the same thing - 5 recommended updates. They don't seem to be detected as having been installed. Any ideas?

    Thumpernut,

    Can you tell me which updates are not being detected as installed? The dev team is aware of a few that are not being detected properly and would like to verify that you are not seeing something different.

    Thanks,

    Warren

    Here's my log file for the past week from the client utility:

    I'm getting the same issue on Optiplex 980 (Windows 7 64bit Professional).

    The three for me were:
    1: Critical: Intel AMT HECI (R267389)
    2: Recommended: Dell client system update v 1.2.1 (was on 1.2.0)
    3: Optional: Realtek ALC269 HD Audio (R252390)

    Through the client utility I downloaded all three and rebooted as prompted. Having logged back in again they all still appeared.
    I manually downloaded each via the link icon in the client utility and installed all three manually and rebooted. The newer Dell Client System update was the only
    of the thee to actually apply.

    So the issue is more serious than the Client System Utility - in particular the critical listed chipset driver update will not install at all even by itself.
    I've applied the Realtek driver by going into device manager and selecting the card and browsing to c:\dell\drivers\R252390 and installing the appropriate driver from there. But that's still not ideal
    as I assume some other interface/software things should apply with that package other than just the raw driver itself - not sure.

    thanks,

    Graham
