Feb 19, 2016 Windows 10 on a Dell XPS8900 desktop tower. I am getting a message telling me there is a Dell BIOS update available and recommending that I do it. In the systray, there is a Dell icon that says my system is up to date. Should I ignore the BIOS update? Sounds major and I'm nervous about it.

I want to update BIOS to new version. While the update process executes, was given an error.
The error is :
The error is :
the battery must be charged above 10 before the system bios can be flashed
My equipment is:
The laptop's battery is dead. Is there a way to passing this step?

With Dell BIOS updates you can run the BIOS update exe at the command line and add /forceit:
- Copy the BIOS update exe file locally on to your PC
- Open the command prompt
- Navigate to the location of the exe file
- Type the name of the exe file and add /forceit to the end eg:
E7440A13.exe /forceit
- Press enter
The update should start and ignore the lack of a battery @ 10% charge.

I have found a solution to your problem here.
- Download the latest firmware from the Dell support
- Save the exe and create a shortcut with the following parameter: '
/writehdrfile
' - Start the created shortcut and it will create a n5110a11.hdr file rename the file to N5110.hdr
- Create a shortcut exe file with the following parameter: '
/writeromfile
' - Start the created shortcut and it will create a n5110a11.rom file rename the file to DQ15A11.rom
- Copy both file N5110.hdr and DQ15A11.rom to a FAT formatted pendrive's root folder
- Remove the charger and Battery from the laptop
- Plug In the pendrive
- Press & hold END
- Connect the charger (still hold END)
- The notebook starts automatically and shows the recovery screen
- Press enter and wait until finish the flashing
- Press esc to restart
- Hopefully problem solved

Update: Oh yeah, and do make sure to use the latest upgrade. In your error screenshot above I can see you’re using an older update.
I suggest you use Rufus to create a MS-DOS-bootable USB drive and then run the upgrade from DOS. Of course, you’ll have to copy the update to the USB drive as well.
Rufus settings should be set as following:
Then, after booting from the USB drive, simply start the flash program: Zombie defense games.
Then, follow the steps the flash program walks you through.
Like the others said, you might want to try the

parameter. With a slash, not a dash. ;)37.1k88 gold badges7272 silver badges9292 bronze badges
Dell Bios Update For Windows 10
I had a Dell Latitude 13 (win 10 x64) which I wanted to update the bios to A02. I tried most of the ways in the forums, which did not work. This is the way I managed to do it using Hiren boot disk.
Download file from Dell.
Download Hiren Boot Disk and create Hiren Boot disk on USB (Google this if you need to)
Copy Dell file to HBD USB
Enter Bios of latitude by pressing F2 key at startup.Enable 'start up' from USB and disable all other startup options. Save and close machine.
Insert HBD on USB stick, start computer, boot from the XP option that comes up.
Find the dell file on the USB stick, copy to XP desktop.
Open CMD and using CD. change to desktop.In the cmd box type 'Dell file name' /forceit.
A box open up with option of updating Bios etc.
Minimize CMD box.
Click yes to update Bios. I cant remember if there was another box confirming update but if there was I confirmed.
Left it for a minute - nothing seemed to be happening.Manually rebooted machine.
On the next reboot Bios update started and completed.
After HBD options came up, opened XP and shut down normally.
Went into Bios, reenabled boot option I had previously disabled.
Machine booted into win 10 x64 with new bios.
Problem fixed.
Hope this works for you, try at your own risk.

Bios Update For Dell Inspiron
Just got through this 'upgrade bios without battery' hell on my Acer E11.
Dell Inspiron N5110 Bios Update Windows 10 64 Bit
The following worked for me:
- Download the BIOS update from Acer site (ZHK116.EXE)
- Run the downloaded file, you will get an error like 'No battery' or 'Low battery', stay on the error dialogue (!)
- Navigate to your current users temp directory (e.g. Users//AppData/Local/Temp), there should be somewhere a temporary directory containing the extracted files from the EXE file (for me it was 7zS4A88.tmp)
- Save the contents of that temp directory somewhere (you can then close the error dialogue, the temp files will be removed)
- Open the file platform.ini with a text editor and search for the key 'AC_Adapter'
- Change parameter BatteryCheck from 1 to 0 or just leave it empty (this disables battery check during BIOS update preparation!), save the file
- Run InsydeFlash.exe in the same directory
- That's it, bios update should start now
