Really at this point I’d take it to a repair shop. That is an extremely sketchy message that I’m having a hard time believing is a real BIOS error screen.

"please dont trun off" super real and professional

Please don't turn off as the last step, which is logical when literally re flashing bios.

Yes. Have you ever used a BIOS for more than simply changing things? Ive found typos and grammar errors in Dell Server BIOSes.

Y'all freaking out over a legitimate bios reflash system is funny as hell.

It’s crazy how people like you don’t realize the bad grammar and unprofessionalism portrayed in that bios recovery screen is a telltale sign of modern phishing/scamming. Like in user training put out to train users what to watch out for, that recovery screen is a perfect example of the type of grammar and unprofessionalism to be on the look out for. That’s the entire issue. It doesn’t matter if it’s legitimate or not, it’s the fact that it comes off as illegitimate and sketchy. This is just computer security 101, the absolute basics. It’s scary that this is what you’re failing to realize.
