You can downgrade back to the previous BIOS,go to the driver and download page>click on the BIOS update tab>then to the right youo will see"other versions" click(that link) to download the previous BIOS from there.It will show a list of all the previous BIOS updates.There has been a email coming from Dell about a BIOS flash that fixes a problem with Lojack,not sure if this is the same update for all systems though?
BE CAREFULL when doing BIOS flashes.A failed flash can render your system a giant paperweight.Make sure the battery is fully charged,and the power adapter is plugged into the outlet.

If your system is still under warranty i would suggest calling Dell Tech Support up for some help on the issue.
