Trying to update X50v to A03 - PC restarts during update

Having just discovered the A03 update, I attempted to update. Everytime (3 times) it attempts to update the ROM, about midway the computer restarts. I will give you step by step instructions of what I do.

1. Download R98710.EXE and save it to a certain location on my hard drive.
2. Double click R98710 icon, click "Run" from Windows Security Warning, "Continue" on System Utilities prompt, "OK" to unzip files to "C:\Dell\Drivers\R98710\". "All files were successfully unzipped.
3. Click "Install Now" on the ReadMe.htm page. Click "Run" two more times from Windows Security Warnings.
4. "Update ROM">"Next">"Next" (with "Save the current ROM to a specified location" checked)>"Continue" (to clear all data)>"Save" (before beginning update, I must backup current ROM)
5. ROM is saved and update begins. I don't think the computer restarts at the same percentage of update completion every time, but it seems to happen towards the middle.

Thank you!

---Matt

that is purely bizar to have your desktop pc reboot while its updating your axim. my guess is retry it on a different pc.
