Jerry -

There have numerous polls and threads here to try to discover a correlation to OS, PC, ROM version, ship dates, usb types, etc. To my knowledge, none have clearly shown a relationship to the the problem.

The most promising sequence for updates that previously failed seemed to be the removal of the batteries for a period of time. Quite a few "failures" became update "successes" with that method (but not for mine). Other methods also proved successful (but not for mine).

I suggest you search/read some of these posts if you want to spend the time to give it a thorough chance. Otherwise, you can wait for an indeterminate amount of time for Dell to fix the update, as I have to do.
