Go to SolutionXPS 8960, BIOS 2.16.0 to BIOS 2.24.0?
My Dell XPS 8960 is running BIOS Version 2.16.1. I noticed version 2.24.0 is out. Can I update from my current version to the new? Or are there step-by-step to gradually update.
Thanks for your help.

First, read through my opinion on BIOS updates here. Our superusers out here might also chime in with their opinions.
Second, for the XPS 8960, only BIOS 2.21.0 was important, in my opinion.

Thanks for your reply, Chris
Does that mean I can update directly from 2.16.1 to 2.21.0 ?
Thanks again for taken the time.
