Are you aware of a Powershell command or something like that which may allow me to see what is being done while the *gear* is spinning when attempting to execute the .exe bios update?
Not a powershell command, but Task Manager "Details" or the full blown Windows Performance Monitor will show in detail what is happening. You can sort the running processes by CPU use. Also bring up with Windows Event Viewer and you should be able to watch the startup and catch any log entries. I'd just start the "Command Prompt" as administrator and run the .exe file there. Then you will see the output to stdout and stderr (which it may be waiting on you to confirm (y/n) something.... Yes, there are installers that are gui as well, but I've always preferred the command line for bios updates, etc... Good luck! -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
