I downloaded the latest BIOS update and made the USB to boot from - no errors.
However, update when booting from said USB failed.
I don't understand the logs below and need some guidance as what to do next
Point to note: the hdd has been wiped of all partitions before windows was installed.
Thanks in anticipation.
