I shutdown my computer today and accepted the updates.  Somewhat surprised to find it was a BIOS update.  The computer is now stuck writing block 928 out of 4096 and has been for the last hour and 20 mins.  How do I recover from this without turning my new notebook into a brick?  It is only a month old.

OK, I eventually had to take the risk and power cycle.  Fortunately on reboot it flashed back to the original BIOS and I didn't end up with an expensive paperweight.  I guess now I need to hunt out how to disable BIOS updates.
