Its not uncommon to have a lot of updates on a new PC, both Dell drivers and Windows updates.  I had the same thing on my own build desktop (listed below).    
Order on 8/28, delivered on 9/30. I was SURPRISED at the number of UPDATES needed? First Dell Support ran and found 4 updates, one being a BIOS. Would not have expected that, especially the BIOS? Next Windows Update had quite a few. OK, possibly needed and OK depending on the devices I connected, one was a video driver though. Then Windows Update checked again, and found more. [IMAGE] That isn't even new. Windows 10 version 21H1 is Microsoft's latest update to the OS, and started rolling out on May 18. Why isn't the s/w up to date when shipped (and tested)? Certainly the BIOS should be, as the latest one shipped just before I ordered, and it didn't even go into production until 9/24. All of this was installed after first power on or later as some do get installed after others were installed: [IMAGE] Is this 'normal'? I can understand some of those as 'images' of the disk are used, but some are build differences specific, like the video card. Shouldn't the latest drivers be installed and the BIOS too I'd think. Basically since the BIOS update contained this info: ========== Important Information - Before upgrading the processor to 11th generation Intel processor, you must update the BIOS to the latest version. =========== Well, since I got the 11th Gen I7, wouldn't you think it would have been required? Just questioning this, everything seems to be working fine.
