I have a Windows 7 Pro PC that I've been having minor trouble with because my headphones have almost no sound, while speakers and everything else are just fine. Anyway, one website suggested updating drivers, so I went out to update my Soundmax Integrated HD Audio driver and the Dell Optiplex 755, and on the Dell website found several driver updates.
Or so I thought. One update was to BIOS 22 and I absentmindedly chose it, updated the BIOS, and now my Windows 7 says it's not a genuine copy. My registration key doesn't work anymore.
This is a refurbished computer that came pre-installed with Windows 7 Pro so I half suspect I'm really screwed here, but have no idea. Is there anything I can do to uninstall this BIOS update I shouldn't have done? Can I just restore back to the Win 7 that's on this system? I haven't had this computer long and I've got backups so I don't mind reverting back to the original settings.
Thanks, I really appreciate the help!
