Due to BIOS upgrade, some Dell systems cannot start

 Some Dell users stated that their devices experienced serious startup problems after installing the latest BIOS update. Certain models of Alienware, Inspiron and Latitude systems are affected. Many devices display blue screens and other errors.



Bleeping Computer reported that certain models of Dell PCs are affected by boot issues due to the new BIOS update. Users described their startup problems on the Dell community website and social media. These problems usually involve blue screens and shutdowns, although some devices will turn on, but their displays will remain off. Other Dell users stated that their systems will shut down within a few seconds of powering on. The "time not set" error also appears on some laptops.


The problematic models include Alienware Aurora R8 (BIOS version 1.0.18) and Dell Inspiron 5680 (BIOS version 2.8.0) desktops and Dell Latitude 5320 and 5520 (BIOS version 1.14.3) laptops.


Some users have discovered a way to resolve the "time not set" error displayed on the laptop by downgrading the BIOS. However, only devices that can be started have a chance to be repaired, and the process is not simple, especially for ordinary Dell users. In addition, the startup problem may persist until the battery is removed and repair work cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, it is recommended that affected users contact Dell Support, use Dell's official guide or wait for a valid BIOS update.

 In terms of efficiency measured by FPS/Watt, the ARM Mali-G710 MP10 ranks top in the comparison chart of top mobile SoC GPUs. This amazing chart created using the GFXBench 3.1 benchmark also reveals the amazing position of the GPU part of the Snapdragon 865, Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 and Snapdragon 888. A mobile SoC GPU efficiency chart has thrown out some arguably shocking results. The table contains 10 high-end SoCs, led by the ARM Mali-G710 MP10 component, which apparently appeared in the so-called MediaTek Dimensity 9000 prototype device. Apple SoC ranks third and fourth in the form of A15 and A14, while GPUs in Google's Tensor chip, Samsung's Exynos 2100 and Huawei's Kirin 9000 occupy seventh, eighth and ninth places respectively. Snapdragon chips with Adreno GPUs are scattered throughout the chart, providing a mixture of good news and bad news. MediaTek Dimensity 9000 has left a deep impression with its powerful CPU components, but the ARM Mali-G710 MP10 also proved its wor...
