This was a Lenovo. Now I'm wondering if Windows or Linux has a better BIOS.
You're viewing a single thread.
The BIOS is an operating system, albeit a super low level one. What is wrong here? It would only be software gore if it said that it was part of the windows operating system, since the BIOS is a system operating system.
Only thing that's really off is that most people don't need to update BIOS with any frequency, if at all, given the potential for ruining your PC. I certainly wouldn't trust my parents with doing it on their own.
Unless a major bios vulnerability has been identified that bypasses TPM and secure boot on Windows machines......
Hopefully vendors like Lenovo have a bulletproof BIOS update pathway, and automatic fallback to the last bios of something goes wrong. Kind of like phone updates
Well my newish Lenovo work laptop is failing its BIOS update with the helpful error message that power is not plugged in (it is) or user cancelled (user did not) or another error (yay!)
Have you checked it's actually plugged in though?
I feel like security issues should be adressed its just best practice and IME most modern mobos have backups to prevent catastrophic failure
