I have an out of date bios and a no-longer-working ac adapter for my dell inspiron 5458. I am currently following this guide. Everything flows smoothly until I get to step:

wine 1525_A17.EXE -writehdrfile -nopause

naturally I replace the file name with shit.exe (which I renamed my downloaded bios update .exe file, for ease of use)

and I continually get this error from wine:

___________________________________________________ BIOS Update Program Error: Invalid Command Line. Unrecognized command line option <-writehdrfile>. The /? option will show command help. __________________________________________________

I need to update the BIOS in hopes it fixes my adapter problem.

You need to tell WINE that it should find the file in your current directory by using dot slash, (or put it in your C:\windows\system32\ WINE dir) : 

wine ./1525_A17.EXE -writehdrfile -nopause

Just tested it and does succcessfully produce a .hdr file.
