Firmware and any indented components below it are a group and are updated together. You cannot update only some components in a group. Multiple instances of the same type of component are usually also considered as a group. - A series of dashes (---) indicates that you cannot select the firmware for an update. For example, older firmware might be incompatible with the newer system hardware. To display more information, select the firmware, then press Enter. - A plus sign (+) indicates that multiple instances of the firmware were detected. To view the instances, highlight the line containing the + and press Enter. A new window opens, listing each instance of that device present on the system.
