Hello Mike,
If the firmware update does not complete, then the DeckLink will not function. If you have not already done so, do try the DeckLink in other available PCIe slots to see if the firmware update finishes.
You may also want to check to make sure the computer has its latest BIOS and chipset drivers up to date.
If you have access to the older system, you may want to try the DeckLink back on this system, just to verify that the card does work and you might be dealing with a hardware incompatibility.
We generally do not recommend Dell systems due to scenarios like these. It can be hit or miss when using a Dell configuration. Our support page does list minimum system requirements with motherboards and full systems out of the box that should work.
If you have any other questions, do let us know.
