Powershell script for installing BIOS updates

Hi Spiceheads,

I have been tasked with creating a powershell script for installing BIOS updates on our devices.

I have a basic understanding of powershell, however I am really struggling to run a command to install the update if the condition is true. The syntax is what i am struggling with mainly.

I have set my variables and everything is working as expected just using text as the output. Now it is time to put the ‘nuts and bolts’ into the code, this is where i struggle.

Any help with this will be greatly appreciated.

Uh not sure, can you post what you have so far?

What’s the brand? Depending if there is a utility for it or not it might be tough to do.

I was missing the ‘start-process’ command.
