M14X R2 BIOS A10 update and I'm scared!!!
I just updated my BIOS and after restarting, my laptop kept starting but before it could get to loading Windows it would freeze and then shut down completely, after many tries it has started but I'm worried about turning my laptop off for fear of it happening again! using CPUID my laptop's temperature isn't exceeding 38C so it isn't overheating! any help would be muchly appreciated!
Many Thanks

No hardware errors, and I was downloading up[dates for my drivers from the dell download site and that must have been one of the updates downloaded! The problem appears to be under control now but still wondering why it happened. :)

Hi simon1991,
Thank you so much for downloading the updates. Like you said one of the updates could have fix the issue but we would not be able to check for it now. However when this happens next time I would request you to do an update and after reach update restart the computer so that we can check the issue
