Hi, my Latitude 3390 2-in-1 stopped booting after Windows was keep updating BIOS, I think BIOS is now corrupted.
My Service Tag is : CZSG4P2
Express Service Code: 28285486022
Also, I want to learn what you do and how you do. I researched already, I think Service Tag and Region should be added to BIOS file, But I couldn't even extract BIN file from the EXE file I downloaded from Dell Website.Can someone pls show me the way? Thanks.

Unfortunately still same, nothing was wrong with this laptop, it was working, windows was showing BIOS update is pending, I confirmed to carry on but I knew BIOS was already on this shown version. Anyway update process went through successfully, and Windows showed same update again on the next boot, I confirmed againjust to get rid of this from the update list, now it doesn't work.

Success ! Laptop somehow came on, with fan is spinning at full speed and also some messages before the Windows started. Windows started and I managed to download BIOS EXE file from Dell website and install. After BIOS update there were again some messages so I needed to go to BIOS and enter Service Tag manually. Accepted and fan speed came to normal and now laptop functions as before. Thank you very much for your help !
