LadyHope- Be polite, jmwills is trying to be helpful. ;)
"Flashing BIOS" is the same as updating it to a higher BIOS release number. The question is why do you think you should update your BIOS? Just because Dell released a new version is NOT a good reason to update, unless the new BIOS release fixes a problem that you have on your system with an earlier version.
You have to understand there's always some risk of permanent damage to your PC's motherboard if the BIOS update fails. And unless your system is under warranty, you'd have to pay for a new motherboard yourself. Generally the risk of updating BIOS is low, but it's still a risk.
So the question is, will this new version fix a specific problem on your system? If not, leave it alone! My 2-cents.
Aha thank you Rohe all and sorry jmwills i didn`t understand about flashing sorry umm my reason to update or flash the bios only to upgradet not for specefic thing :)
and there other proplem when i enter the web site of dell i saw an urgent thing should be downloaded about mediadirect 3.0 when i run the patch it`s displayed an error message (powercinma 4.7 should be installed) i have a mediadirect inspiron 6400

If you don't have powercinma 4.7 installed on this PC, you don't need that patch.
Again, you need to be selective about what updates you install. If it fixes a problem on your system or patches a security hole, by all means update. Otherwise, pick and choose updates carefully.
