    Hi IT Pros,
    If this method did not work for you, most likely it's because you have a most recent HP model.
    I made a video recently about updating the Bios version on a new HP laptop. Hope it helps!

      I have a hp 250 g5 notebook pc, I just want to upgrade it to a ssd and 16 ddr ram memory, it has windows 10 pro. I went hp software/drivers downloads and found the bios the corresponds my pc: f:48--12-17-2019. I downloaded and save it into a usb. Is that all I need to upgrade my pc and boot it from the usb? Of that I have to load other drivers like sound, network and the like?

    I may be overreacting, but I'm upgrading to a new CPU and wanna make sure the BIOS is done right. I downloaded the newest bios version, saved it to the HPupdate desktop folder, and what was saved was the application to launch the HP flash utility. But, I ran the flash utility and chose the USB recovery option which saved a bunch of the files you showed in the video but there are some differences. I got 3 folders labed "EFI", "Hewlett Packard", and "HP". Each of the 3 folders seem to share almost all of the same files, even down to the sub folders (BIOS and BIOSUPDATE being in all 3 main folders) The only difference is in the "HP" folder and then into the BIOSUPDATE folder, there are less of the EFI, s09, s12, s14 files than in the main EFI and Hewlett Packard folders. I'm unsure if maybe the version I got from the HP site included all of what you dragged in from your download from the HP site, or if I missed something to move over?

    I want to update HP Probook 6560b, from BIOS ver F.20 to BIOS ver F.67 RevA because any new SSD (replacing HDD) is not recognized by laptop. If you have some advice for me I will appreciate.

    You must correctly format it with hp tool with latest bios.
    1- plug charger
    2- put pendrive
    3- press and keep pressing power button + windows + B (for a long time, around 1minute)
    4- keep looking at the power led and other LED at bottom left notebook
    5- when it's enought ALL LIGHTS WILL TURNOFF
    6- LET POWER BUTTON ONLY but keep holding windows + B
    7- The notebook will appear off but it's ON
    pendrive light will turnon and bios flash will start(screen will be off)
    8- Wait around 1 to 3 minutes for the flash ( screen will be off)
    9 release windows+b
    9- turnoff via power button
    10 - try turning on. it should work.

    Hi. I have a question for you because I wanted to update the bios in the hp omen 16 5t925ea laptop. I currently have a bios version with the F17 designation and I want to update to the latest version of F20 and the problem is that there are even earlier versions of these bios: F18 and F19 and if I download the latest version of F20, I have to download the two previous versions for the latest one to work ? Something will happen if I skip these F18, F19? Will the system be unstable or poor performance? 2 Question: What is the best program to download the bios update? Is it through this bios sp executable file and something or is it better to use the program: Uefi Bios Update, amibios, afudos or rw everything. I would like an answer...

      Hello,
      In most cases is not needed to go in order.
      Unless there is a note for version F20 that says you need F18-19 before upgrading to F20. If not, there should not be any problems.
      You can download the upgrade using your web browser.
      Hope it help

    Hi, i have the older 10 year old HP 6730b and in the bios there is NO update option, only reset back to default. i even tried loading the bios file in windows but it just said finished? didnt go to a app or anything?? Laptop starts normally to windows but i had that 501 error at start and just reset bios to factory and that cleared that but still cant find any place to update the bios to latest. All settings in the bios seem to be on "change" and i even took battery out to reset in case a security lock is on somewhere. My other laptop from same age 4530s has a update line with the bios section, so is the 6730b locked out from bios updates or is the chip faulty or locked out in some way?? Otherwise its working and booting ok
    .
    Thanks

      I have the same problem. No "update BIOS" setting in the BIOS. But there is a newer version of BIOS on the hp website. So there must be a way, but nothing works. Just plugin in the usb stick doesn't do anything. Any ideas?

      In earlier versions of the BIOS the 'Update' option may not have been there, it may only have been added in a later version than you have, like the one you are trying to update to. You need to follow the procedure described in the post by @metaorior above, which does not require the update option in the BIOS; indeed, his procedure should work even if the BIOS is corrupt and you cannot even boot the laptop or access its BIOS.

    • @stevebekus2147
      @stevebekus2147 Před 5 měsíci

      See my reply to the first reply to this post from @MrOlegrom. Why do you want to update the BIOS on your laptop if it's working and booting OK anyway, unless you want to add some new hardware that isn't recognised, like a new SSD for example, as a few of the other posts here are trying to do? There is a significant risk that you will brick your laptop if you get any part of this procedure wrong so if you don't NEED to update the BIOS, DON'T DO IT and if you don't know exactly what you're doing but still need to update then get a technician who does know what they're doing to do it for you - this is non-trivial procedure!

      Hello B K,
      I would try another USB brand, if available, or create the bootable USB one more time. If that does not work the HP laptop model may not support this method of updating the BIOS version. In that situation i would recommend updating the bios from Windows itself.
      Here i have a video for that: czcams.com/video/g4-lOJWN9_U/video.html
      Hope it helps.

      yep, thats an error in hp bios updates, which i have too. If you try to run it manually, you'll get an error kind of "no ROM.CAB file found", and it's really missing. Also there is a post on hp community, where a couple users have that problem too. You know what HP support does? He started to convince user not to install update, because it have small changes and then started to ask all non-related to problem stuff, such as serial number etc.
      Easy solution is to write USB stick with livecd, copy folder C:\SWSetup\SP79709 from other windows pc (you should get this bios update from HP website) to your stick, rename file ..\SWSetup\SP79709\68SCE.CAB (it can be different for you - see "system information"-"BIOS Revision" on HP PC) into ROM.CAB, then boot on HP comp using LiveCD and start HPQFlash.exe. Thats the only way it worked for me

    • @stevebekus2147
      @stevebekus2147 Před 5 měsíci

      Seems like the BIOS update failed or the BIOS file you downloaded wasn't the correct one for your laptop. Did you interrupt the BIOS update while it was still running or lose power or something else that didn't allow the update to complete?
      You should ensure that you download the correct BIOS update file for your laptop model, from the HP website ONLY - don't trust downloads from any other site, then follow the procedure in the video up to creating the USB drive with all the necessary files on it using another computer. Finally, follow the procedure in the post by @metaorior above - that doesn't require you to access the laptop's BIOS menu again to do the BIOS update as shown in the video, which you can't do now because you broke it.

    • @stevebekus2147
      @stevebekus2147 Před 5 měsíci

      You should be able to do the first part of this procedure, ie extracting the necessary files in the service pack to the folder on your desktop, even on a different brand laptop as long as it's running Windows, but be aware that .NET version 2.0 is required to run most of these service pack extraction executables, especially ones for older models like the DV6, so install that before you start if it isn't already.
      You DO NOT however want to run the actual BIOS update procedure, which may start automatically after the extraction has finished, on a different brand laptop or even a different model from the same manufacturer because that will most likely fail as you have seen so just cancel that. Proceed as shown in the video from 8.15 onwards and copy all the files in the desktop folder to a FAT or FAT32 formatted USB drive then follow the procedure described in the post by @metaorior above, which does not require the update option in the BIOS; you should be able to restore the DV6 BIOS successfully that way but make absolutely sure that you have downloaded the correct BIOS for your laptop from the HP website - use your serial number, on the label beneath the battery in the battery compartment, to do so and don't trust downloads from any other source. There are many different models of the DV6 series with very different BIOSes so it is very important that you have the correct one.

    • @stevebekus2147
      @stevebekus2147 Před 5 měsíci

      Charge the battery fully with the laptop turned off - the LED beside the charging port will be white not orange when fully charged. If that doesn't work then the laptop is probably overheating and the cooling system needs cleaning out because it is blocked with fluff; you'll probably need technical help with that as you'll need to dismantle the whole laptop to do it - it's a non-trivial operation but there are videos on CZcams that show you how to do it and if you do then don't forget to replace the heatsink compound between the heatsink and the CPU, THAT'S VERY IMPORTANT (you'll have to disconnect the heatsink from the CPU to clean the fan out properly).

    • @stevebekus2147
      @stevebekus2147 Před 5 měsíci

      Nothing - just wait and don't turn it off using the power button! Windows may be trying to install updates in the background as it shuts down (if you have automatic updates turned on that is) - if you kill it before it's finished then then it will just try to do the whole thing again the next time you shut it down. The alternative is to go into 'Windows Update' while Windows is running, check for updates if necessary then watch as it applies any outstanding ones until there are no more left; it may well still take a long time to shut down after this but it will tell you what it's doing with a progress readout. Once the updates have been applied it should shut down as quickly as normal - Patience Grasshopper!

      Hello Bongo cat, i like the memes 👍
      A Bios update does not reset the Bios password. For that, the best option os to remove the Cmos battery, the Cmos battery looks like a silver coin and is located in different places of the motherboard depending on the computer model.
      Once carefully removed leave like for around 30 min or more, then put it back in. That should reset any passwords/configuration in the Bios.

      Hello DHAVAN,
      I will start saying: It not a good idea to downgrade you Bios version for it may render your computer unusable. Now, I have 2 videos on which i do exactly that, downgrade the Bios version. So, it is up to you, your computer might work with no problem after the downgrade or i may not work at all. Finally, there are some cases on which the Bios downgrade process can't be performed. One of them happens if the update fixed some vulnerabilities in the device.
