This package contains the Dell system BIOS for Dell OptiPlex 7060 Tower, OptiPlex 7060 Small Form Factor and OptiPlex 7060 Micro that runs the Windows operating system. BIOS is a firmware that is embedded on a small memory chip on the computer's system board. It controls the keyboard, monitor, disk drives and other devices. This update fixes the issue where the USB PowerShare remains active when the system is shut down or in hibernation and the issue where the force PXE (Preboot Execution Environment) on next system boot feature does not work when selected remotely via Dell Command Configuration.
