A09 Bios version & Latitude D820 problem

When trying to install BIOS version A09 from Dell drivers to a Latitude D820 under Vista I recieve a flash application error message -

  • Application error return:0x00000610
  • Windows Error Return: 0x00000002.

 

  Any ideas?

    This solution came from another post and has worked for me and others in situations like this. Be careful with Regedit as you can mess up other things, but you're trying to get rid of some Dell BIOS update keys that were created by running the flash program once, but now prevent the program from running again:

    1. Click on start then run and type "regedit" in the box and press enter. (without the quotes)
    2. Expand and Look for: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SYSTEM ->ControlSet001 -> Services -> DELLBIOS
    3. Delete DELLBIOS folder
    4. Restart the system
    5. Re-flash BIOS
