• ProBook 6570b: VTx is enabled in the BIOS but does not work

  Hello

  I use ProBook 6570 b after update, with Win 7 Profesional 64 b (a second) i'm running a bios F.62 Rev.A April 7, 2015, that I got from HP support web site. I activated the VTx in bios but its seems that this is not enabled (the Microsoft virtualization detection tool used).

  I turned the PC out to the battery, expected 15 min, upgrated bios 2 x and it still does not seem to work.

  Any ideas? Thanks in advance

  Hi, it fixed by uninstalling Avast antivirus, does not help turn it off, you must uninstall it.

  Thanks anyway

• ProBook G3 450: I've updated the bios on my g3 Probook 450 and now potrs usb do not work

  I've updated the bios and after restarting the pc no usb port work and the usb serial bus is not listed in Device Manager. I have not received any error.

  Hi Richrob,

  Usually after the BIOS updates I recommend restoring the default BIOS because some parameters may change or managed power States must be refreshed. If you start at the F10 menu there will be a restoration of the default BIOS on the home page.

  If the USB bus does not return to the top after restoring default values, try to reinstall the USB driver. You can find the latest version for Windows 7 here.

• HP Probook 440 2 How to change the BIOS to work around the memory not supported the start-up message

  Hi everyone, first I would like to say that I find the list of operating system for the less "interesting".

  Now, I bought a G2 to replace my 4441S.

  The problem is that the momory I had gave me a message as "memory not supported."

  very well, I bought new memory, same problem with 2 brands, so I it's maybe because I bought 'normal' memory and not DDR3l?

  The thing is that I need this memory quickly and I can't find DDR3L, now I use corsair Vengeance and I need more on the lan function but this message that allow me to use the computer if I press on enter, have no countdown with option by default and no BIOS settings so I want to change that and either add a timeout that starts the laptop or just disable this message , because it works, I use it now.

  I need that until I can find the DDR3L.

  Thank you.

  You don't seem to understand how it works with primary and secondary memory voltage settings schedule and bus. the laptop BIOS ROM file includes settings in its encoding of the memory modules that meet the compatibility requirements. If you install memory that has not been tested for compatibility, so it will not work or even it seems to work, it will be unstable.

  A BIOS of the laptop is quite unlike a BIOS that is present in a motherboard level amateur games. There are no timings adjustable and tensions to the timings of the memory or bus in a laptop BIOS BIOS standard voltages. It actually is to protect the owners from themselves.  You "do not 1.5 and 1.35. You can't change the setting of the voltage on the bus to do anything other than what is defined in the BIOS. If you install the module memory does not accept the voltage set by the BIOS code, then you are simply out of luck.

  Check out the BIOS Modding forums if you want to see what options may be made available.

• ProBook 640 G1: ProBook G1 - SATA Bay Secondary speed 640

  Hello

  I replaced the optical drive with a HARD drive.

  The HARD drive is capable of 6 GB/s but when the value at the same speed in the BIOS I get errors when using the HARD drive.

  If I set the speed SATA 3 GB/s in the BIOS then it works properly.

  My questions are:

  1. in the event that the secondary Bay be able to support SATA 6 GB/s speeds

  2. If I change the speed 3 GB/s SATA in the BIOS, will also reduce the speed of my primary SSD SATA 3 GB/s.

  Thanks in advance for your help.

  No and Yes. I have long tried to persuade people not to make the caddy optical drive without good thing understand what is happening. The interface is SATA-i: an optical drive has more than that. If you set the SATA mode in the BIOS to 300 Mbps which will Crown all SATA transfers. Having said that, in the reality of exploitation, SATA-II does not give much against SATA-III, the only difference is theoretical maximum burst that is rarely achieved in any case speed. Just updated to SATA-II in the BIOS and use it this way would be my advice or get a SSD for the main drive. A SATA-II SSD is still much faster than any HDD.

• HP Probook 650 G1: How to disable the keys way to Probook 650 G1 running Windows 7, 64-bit

  I just bought a HP Probook G1, intel i7 650 - 4600 m, system BIOS 01.34-08/28/2015, keyboard review KBC 16.3 C version.

  ESC and F1 through F12 function keys seem to be in the Mode of action key (for example flight gives HP, F6 system information allows you to change the audio levels, etc.)- and I prefer to keep the standard functions of these keys (for shortcuts in Word and Excel, also for Express Scribe transcription software).

  I found Ctrl + Fn + the function key corresponding is workaround to achieve some (but not all) the standard functions - but which is cumbersome when used frequently. Workaround doesn't seem to work for the ESC key.

  I saw a few tips on how to disable the Mode keys on some laptops HP - eg
  http://support.HP.com/au-en/document/c02035108

  - and I have used this method on the previous laptop HP (e.g. Pavilion G6), but it does not work for this Probook. The configuration screen of the BIOS on my new machine does not seem to show the key Action Mode (or same System Configuration) as an option.

  I would be grateful for suggestions.

  Problem is now resolved, thanks to HP Technical Support phone line. Their tips were:

  * go to the BIOS Setup in the usual way (shut down, then power on, press ESC, choose F10 for Bios configuration)

  * Choose the Information System

  * arrow above to advance

  * Choose the Configuration of the device

  * Uncheck the Fn key switch

  * Save, etc.

  The corresponding option is more referred to Action Mode button for this model of HP laptop, at least not for the version of BIOS this Probook 650 G1 (worm 1.36, 25/04/2016).

  I did recently on my HP ProBook 450 G2 Kubuntu Linux 15.10 running.

  A new version of the BIOS (01.16 Rev.A 1 December 2015) was available, but for Windows only.

  What I had to do to install the BIOS under Linux:

  * Download the exe file (for example: sp74048.exe): this is an archive

  * unpack with 7zip

  * go to my laptop configuration: restart, press [ESC] >

  Configuration of the BIOS F10 > MAIN > system update BIOS > BIOS update using local media

  * read the instructions:

  "Place the system on a FAT32 partition no BIOS BIN file more

  on the system or on a removable USB hard drive

  under the folder "Hewlett-Packard\BIOS\New.

  Then, add or verify that the HP Bios update utility (HpBiosUpdate.efi)

  and the signature file (HpBiosUpdate.s12) are

  on the same partition FAT32 under

  the path to the following folder: "Hewlett-Packard\BIOSUpdate. »

  * Take a flash drive, create the folder ""Hewlett-Packard\BIOS\ " "

  copy the whole folder "BIOSUpdate" since the original installation file for her

  create the "New" folder and copy the bin on it (in my case "M74_0116.bin")

  * If at the end, the flash drive looks like this:

  \---Hewlett-Packard

  + - BIOS

  | \---New

  |      Mxx_xxxx. bin

  |

  \---BIOSUpdate

  all files here

  * place the flash drive in the laptop and "BIOS update using local media" hit the button [I accept] below "the system BIOS will be updated immediately.'." "

  Then update the BIOS HP appears saying: the system BIOS is updated day. > writing new BIOS Image. > Veryfying new BIOS Image. > restart.

  Fact.

  It is really beyond me why HP does not provide a simple archive with the appropriate directory structure and a readme file so that anyone could update the BIOS regardless of operating system.

  Warning: I'm just an average Linux user. This procedure worked for me, but before use, you must consider the risks for yourself. You SHOULD know what you're doing.

• ProBook 4440 s: how to change the settings of the bios on my hp ProBook 4440 s to increase dedicated video ram

  How to change the settings of the bios on my hp ProBook 4440 dedicated to increase video ram?
  I want to increase to play better games.
  How to change through the bios I don't know.
  Help me pls.
  
  Thank you

  The days of being able to change RAM in BIOS went Bye Bye a few years ago. It was back in the day.

  You can't make changes to the video RAM settings in BIOS.

  You can reduce the resolution if you want to increase performance in a menu of own game options, but at a cost of resolution.

• HP Probook 450 G2: Impossible to use the HP Probook 450 G2 of fingerprints

  I bought a HP Probook 450 G2 with the free dos version yesterday. I installed windows pro 8.1 on it successfully with all the drivers of HP on the site. But apparently, HP drivers for my probook web page don't offer me with the software "simplepass" for the finger print function. So, I downloaded it from a third party Web page. I checked from the BIOS and the fingerprint is activated, I also installed the validity sensor driver and whatever it is I just don't get any option 'fingerprint' on the program (Simplepass), what they show is 'Pass pine or CHARACTER' and nothing else. Similarly, the option "SIGN IN" from the windows, they show no fingerprints for security options. All my drivers are up to date.  Validity sensor driver is 4.5.133.0, SimplePass is 2015. I'm starting to give up because I googled as much I could and tried all the safest approach, still does not work. Help someone?

  Thank you in advance.

  Please check in the Device Manager and make sure you see the fingerprint sensor fingerprint validity in BIOMETRICS , as shown in the image below

  In the Power Options, I put the screen turns off in 10 minutes when my laptop is connected.   I have a Probook s 4540 with an operating system of Windows 10.   The display turns off in 2 minutes when I have no activity.  This causes a lot of extra time turn on the screen and entering the password.    I tried to solve the problem of:

• ProBook 6545b: ProBook 6545b fan runs continuously on the average speed.

  The fan on my HP ProBook 6545b worked at all average speed for the past 6 or 7 hours I had it lit.

  I looked at performance monitor and the CPU is a little more than 50%, most of the time.

  I checked the process in the Task Manager tab and see nothing unusual.

  Any ideas what the cause, other than dust in the fan?

• HP Probook 470: What is the BIOS administrator Passowrd

  I've restored my Probook 470 to the factory settings and ran Windows Update a couple of times bring things up-to-date.

  Then I used the built-in HP Support Assistant to check the HP updates. There are a few updates driver including an update of the BIOS. All have been installed except the BIOS update - asking me to enter the "BIOS Password Admiistrator".

  What shuold I go home? There is nothing that came with the computer who told me.

  OK, thanks for all your answers.

  A helpful guy to the HP Support has generated an SMC. BIN file for me (as well as clear instructions on how to apply it). Everything worked well and I now control the Admin BIOS password and have successfully installed the latest version of the BIOS.

  A nuisance - I had to install the BIOS manually because HP Support Assistant has a major bug. He pretends to install BIOS but, after Windows restarts, it displays the following window:

  "A restart is required to complete the installation of updates"

  Whenever I restart the machine, HP Support Assistant does is display the same pop-up window. An endless loop basically.

  I solved this by installing the latest version of the BIOS manually and uninstall HP Support Assistant completely from my machine.

• ProBook 470 G3: ProBook 470 G3 fan system after flashing the BIOS errors

  B has recently purchased a HP ProBook 470 G3 with i7 CPU. When I got the laptop I placed my own memory and M.2 SSD in and performed a clean installation of Windows 10 x 64. Everything was fine, I installed all the drivers and the laptop worked perfectly. However, when I flashed the new BIOS, V1.07 Rev A, I started to have problems.

  I use the laptop for academic purposes, I so open and close several times a day. After flashing the BIOS again, the laptop awake sometimes not, and trying to turn off it I had to remove the battery. Would not even holding down the power button for 20 seconds. While booting after removing the battery, I'd get a system error, 90 b error code fan.

  I tried re flashing version 1.07, but returned eventually to version 1.06. This version works very well. It was a real let up to me, given that this laptop costs €1400,- and should be a book reliable business.

  Is their another experiecing the same problems? If so, how do fix you it? And no one knows when they will be a stable version of BIOS V1.07?

  Use the PC Hardware diagnosis UEFI to restore the previous BIOS so that that you flashed cause questions.

  Press the power button and then immediately begin to press the F2 key to evoke the Diagnostics menu.

  Choose firmware management. In the menu next, choose and click on revert to the previous version.

  You can also create and use the 3-in-1 usb to accomplish the same.
