Go to Solution5820 Tower stuck at 0% BIOS 2.0.2 to 2.4.0
Most of my 5820 towers have taken the 2.4.0 BIOS upgrade without any issue. Unfortunately, I have a couple computers that stay stuck at 0% for the longest time. It seems fine to reboot into the operating system to get out of the upgrade menu, but I'm unable to get the afflicted towers to take the update.

Or plug in a single monitor from the graveyard, run the bios update, and call it a day. Afterwards, plug the original monitor(s) back in.

I think you will be able to upgrade the firmware on those workstations temporarily changing the monitor to a lower resolution one. It has been discussed previously on this forum, and most people agree on UHD displays being the reason behind this problem.
