PENDING Error Bios Update during Task Sequence

[Paakan Soloki]

Hello,

I have been trying to add a BIOS update to our Task Sequence for a specific Dell model.(Optiplex 5040)
I get this error every time:

"The task sequence execution engine failed executing the action (Flash Bios Optiplex 5040) in the group (Modern Bios Management) with the error code 2147942616

I got the Bios file from the Dell website while searching the Service Tag of the device.
This is a screenshot of the Task Sequence:


Can anyone help resolve this issue?

Thanks.

"This version of %1 is not compatible with the version of Windows you're running."

Are you running this in WinPE?
