Latitude 10 ST2 silent BIOS update?

Hi all!

We've got a bunch (1000+) of these tablets headed our way for a project. Most of the machines have been arriving with the A01 BIOS.

We need to upgrade these to the A02 (or now, A03) BIOS before deploying.

So far, I can't find a way to silently update the BIOS version.

I've tried all the standard Dell switches that work for our other Latitudes as well as some other guesses, to no avail.

/s /f

/quiet

/silent

/unattend

/unattended

Anyone else have any luck with this?

After much pestering...

The new A04 BIOS has a /nopause switch available, which should fit the bill. I haven't tested it yet to confirm, but this is from our Dell rep.

Thanks, so i suspect that means that you cannot silently install A04, but once A04 is installed you will then be able to silently install any future BIOS updates..

Thanks for the reply.

I tested this with the new A05 Bios update. Running with the "/nopause" switch allowed me to upgrade a Latitude 10 from BIOS A03 to A05 silently. Thankfully, this finally is working.
