6180 HP dv6 BIOS update

Hello.

When I bought my laptop, the seller said: "I would suggest that you update your laptop BIOS."

is this useful? If so, how?

I'm waiting for your help.

Thank you.

It seems that the image retains the product inside information, but he was removed from the upper part of the image.

Based on the number of products listed, newest BIOS located here.

However, the most recent version on the HP site is F.1B and the picture indicates that your system already has the version of BIOS F.1B. This can also be verified by pressing Fn + ESC simultaneously.

When it comes to upgrading the BIOS, it is a decision for the end user. Some better still and some upgrade only when a problem arises.

However, I do not recommend updating BIOS, that they become always available for a pattern that is usually to correct or prevent a problem.

  • HP Pavilion DV6 3122TX: updated the BIOS F.29 don't switch HP Pavilion DV6 3122TX Ati graphics card

    Hello

    I have HP Pavilion DV6 3122TX and recently I was updating my drivers and software from the HP Web site for my laptop. Everything was done smoothly. As I updated my BIOS, I noticed that I was not able to switch between ATI Radeon 5650 and Intel HD Graphics, then I was also shocked that he wasn't showing a charger plugged into icon too. Although the battery was charging but didn't show any icon for it. I am running Windows 7. After a few days, my battery was went wrong and was not in charge. I bought the new battery from HP Store for my laptop, and then after a few days now he is dying too. My computer laptop suddenly stops on about 30% of battery remaining and battery does not charge. I arranged another charger and plugged, but once more. I gave the laptop to the service center local and got NO from them as well. They couldn't find the problem. After a lot of research and reading messages HP, I finally understood that it was the problem with the BIOS Update and Windows 7. So, out of curiosity, I installed Linux RedHat 6 on windows 7 and everything was OK. But I am a graphic designer for Linux is not a good choice for me. I want to just restore my BIOS in its original version of the default BIOS. Please kindly help me to get my original BIOS. I tried everything on my hand. I also ask HP to the original versions of the drivers like BIOS on its Internet site. My laptop is dying. Please, Experts, I need your kind assisstence. Thanks in advance

    Create the key USB HP Diagnostics of material 3-in-1 PC and boot to it.

    If you updated the BIOS from the old version will still be in a folder of your operating system. Use the method I proposed to get it back.

    If you are unable to read the instructions on the web page of Diagnostics of material for the HP PC, then I suggest that you pay someone to do it and create the flash drive for you.

  • ENVY dv6 - 7373ca: update BIOS WANT dv6

    Hello

    After I managed to remove the two "unknown device" - entered the W10 Device Manager clean install thanks to this forum, I tried to upgrade to the BIOSVersion F.2D Rev a dated August 26, 2014 and listed under Windows 8 (sp68425.exe) which, according to the note, HP recommends highly.

    As I was not sure if this update would work under W10, I first tried the method described (HP Notebook PC - updated BIOS) with the opening of the menu equipment Diagnostics UEFI immediately by pressing the ESC key several times, once per second, until the Boot Menu is displayed and then pressing the F2 key. But unfortunately on the HP PC Hardware Diagnostics UEFI screen of my ' WANT dv6 - 7373ca "there are only four options (1. Memory test, 2. Hard drive test, 3. Language, 4. Exit) and no option called 'Firmware Management' or 'BIOS '. Because I would have preferred a BIOS update without starting the Windows operating system, is there something I can add this missing option menu Hardware Diagnostics UEFI?

    So I took the chance to run this BIOS file "sp68425.exe" in Windows 10 and everything seemed to work fine except the error message short after the new throw about 1 or 2 seconds that an error has been discovered, which needs to be solved and a percentage that was happening 100% before 10 of Windows start still.

    Now, everything seems to work ok: I can access the BIOS again much easier than the old BIOS dating sometime in 2012, I can boot Windows 10 without any error message longer, I can restore my WindowsImageBackups using the repair-CD as well as well as the SystemRestoreDrive I had both created on Windows 10. And the new BIOS version number and date are displayed under the W10 and also after the start systeminfo pressing keys ESC and F1. Is there anything else I can do to check the correct functioning of the BIOS?

    Concerning

    Seek and you will find what I found, it was supposed to be the latest version of "HP PC Hardware Diagnostics UEFI" (v. 5.9.0.0) I installed immediately on the UEFI System Partition to update the old one in my laptop (c. 1.6.0.0). This provided the desired options '-update BIOS "and"BIOS-Rollback"after pressing the F2 key without having to start Windows or if this does ' t OS start.

  • BIOS update help stuck!

    Hi, I have a Pavilion dv6-3040us and when I turned on my laptop, he asked me if I wanted to do a bios update then I did and press ENTER.  Now its impasse on 'New BIOS Image Verification' block 34/512 for almost an hour now.  What can I do? Thank you

    Update - seems that my laptop failed finally battery and extinction.  During the reboot, the update of the bios went quickly without any problems. Don't know what was wrong before, but maybe I just needed taken power.

    You are very lucky that it does not corrupt your computer. Having plugged adapter is one of the terms when you Flash the BIOS and most likely, that's what he expected.

    The BIOS is a specific set of instructions that are stored on the motherboard and not on the hard disk, the BIOS is not a program or a driver. When these instructions are altering the processor, video card, etc. can properly interact with the hardware on the computer.

    Most of the time it comes to send back to HP to fix this problem. There are a few things to do, but they are not very successful.

    Next time don't let HP update BIOS, if everything works fine, do not update anything, especially the BIOS.

  • Clocked at 20 degrees warmer since putting on 3.87 Rev A Bios Update on Z420 Workstation

    I have a question:

    Not too long ago I put the Bios Update on A Rev 3.87 was considered to be as critical an update on my workstation Z420 (running Windows 7 Pro 64-bit), and lately I've found that the CPU idling at about 20 degrees more hot than before.  I used to hear creaking noises coming from the computer I learned normally come circuits on the motherboard power delivery, but as long as I heard those CPU would be on average around 50 degrees C at idle.  I hear these noises and now the CPU is on average around 70-75 degrees C at idle.  Not sure what the connection is.  HP performance Advisor tells me I'm in the normal range, but I want to just make sure that with programs like Autodesk Maya there, she become too hot and stop the machine.   I don't know what the temp high-end is considered maximum security.  This change could have due to the update of the Bios?

    Thank you for your response and suggestions.  I check in my BIOS power management settings has been developed the extended mode, but the temperature has always hovered around 70-78 degrees at idle.  I checked Intel spec for this (E5 - 1650 6-core xeon) processor, clocked at 3.2 Ghz by heart, and although he said nothing on the TMax, he mentioned that the TCase (which he defined as the maximum temperature allowed integrated processor heat sink (IHS)) was 64 degrees Celsius.  Now my temperature of the case, according to my HP Performance Advisor version 1.7.7517.0 is only about 24 degrees C, but I put my fan a little higher CPU, about 2009 rpm speed.  This makes a little more noise, but my CPU temp has dropped to about 49 °.  "" Before the change of the fan speed has been slightly more than 1300 RPM while the Advisor I have always said that it is in the range "normal".  Is it good to get the speed of the CPU fan like that or do I have to go a little lower?

  • Satellite X 200-20 s - LAN does not work after BIOS update

    Hi all

    I've updated the BIOS version 2.7 and NIC LAN just disappeared from my list of device. The wireless network card works fine however. When I plug the ethernet cable, the green light turns orange not, so I guess that it is not broken, as it worked fine before the BIOS update.

    I tried different drivers lan Windows XP and still nothing. Any ideas please?

    I have Windows 7 x 64 installed.

    LAN option is listed in the BIOS boot menu?

    If you have tested with Win7 and WXP maybe you should do finally test and install recovery image original Toshiba that you got with your laptop and see what happen when you use the laptop with the factory settings.

    I tried to update the BIOS to my M700-110 PPM70E-02302DEN from 1.60 to 1.80 (P005Bv180.exe).

    However, it fails with the error "the BIOS update is not taken in charge of operating system. No support for operating system or service pack installed. »

    What is the problem?
    What BIOS is right for my system?

    Please help me!
    Thank you very much.

    Hello

    It seems that the OS Vista was preinstalled on this laptop.
    This means that you have installed the Windows 7 system to your own hand.

    The point is that BIOS update requires a few essential tools of Toshiba.
    For example, the package of value added is an important software package and must be preinstalled on the laptop.

    VAP is installed?
    If this isn't the case, install the PPV before trying to update the BIOS.

  • BIOS update failed on Tecra R10 with Windows7

    Hello

    I have problems with the update the BIOS of my Tecra R10J. The current version is 1.4, and I want to upgrade to 3.0, so I downloaded from the Toshiba web site the good file named "P006Cv300.exe" 2009-11-04 released. It is an update of the BIOS online in a real session of Windows 7. Simply right click the compress exe, click Run as admin and that is all, but... for me, he said:
    * "[Error] the start of the service was abandoned. The user doesn't have administrative privileges. "

    See below:
    http://perso.Orange.fr/100Mo/bioserror.jpg

    I tried with:
    -closed AV, firewall, etc...
    -turn off UAC
    -Run as administrator
    -Tried with another admin account
    -Safe mode (update of the bios doesn't support safe mode)
    -lead the local administrator session

    No change. Always the message "user lacks administrative privileges."
    Need help please, found nothing on Google (similar but not resolved Bios problem!)

    Thank you

    Hey ignore them,

    As Akuma has already written the added value Package must be installed for BIOS update for the BIOS to read system information correctly. Besides, the VAP is needed for special functions such as the FN keys so it must be installed.

    It would be interesting to know what is happening with the factory settings. I guess that your computer laptop wasn t ship with Windows 7, but with Vista and you should try it with Vista.

    When I start the pc, F2, press c to boot from the CD-ROM, I get in a dos environment. I went to the drive Z, "dir" and see the bios.exe that I've burned to cd. To run it I type bios.exe and continue to be 'command unrecognized file name' when I type dir *.exe, he does not see the file either.

    Hello

    Your described method does not apply to Toshiba laptops.
    Each computer laptop manufacturers supports various BIOS update procedures

    Toshiba on this page we:
    http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/support/JSP/downloadDetail.jsp?soID=356848&PF=true
    Here you can download the latest version of the BIOS for Tecra 8100

    The 4810.25 package must be unpacked everything first.
    Then you should check the files available.
    There is a readme.txt file that describes how to update BIOS using the ISO to CD.

    I hope I could help

  • irreversible bios update made noisy fan (8710p, 8710w, 8510p, 8510w, fan, F.20, F.0E)

    Hey.

    I just want to share my experience with the update of the bios on my computer hp 8710w laptop and talk to HP support. I've updated F.0E to F.20 and after that this fan went wild. In windows 7 it works very well every boots 2 / 3, or more. All fans of time runs fast, no matter what the system load and temperature are. What makes the portable noisy.

    I used to use linux and it just fan slow down after spinning up to cool the system. It is really something that you want to have, because it becomes a noisy vacuum cleaner with an excellent machine and quiet.

    I have enough evidence to assume that the problem was caused by the update of the bios. First of all, it started exactly after the bios update when nothing else has been changed. Secondly, 5 years ago I had a very similar laptop (8710p) and when I have updated the bios to F.0F, it's the same thing, but I fortunately downgraded the bios and everything was back to normal. In addition, reported others on the internet and these discussion forums.

    Now with the update of F.20... There is no way to downgrade. It's embarrassing: HP has released a update this feature breaks... and there is no way back (except the replacement of the card system, which is expensive for laptops out of warranty).

    I was the cat and then talk on the phone with HP support. They are not really very close to professional. First, they said that my windows 7 is not officially supported and should I install xp or vista. I have xp installed specially for them, and which consumes a lot of time. Of course, nothing has changed. And they actually all drivers for windows 7...

    The best advice of hp support has been trying to install all previous versions of the bios. I reported a failure on each one, then only, they found in the description of the version F.20 could not be downgraded. After reading the forums here for 15 minutes, I knew much more technical support on my laptop and the question, lol.

    After talking with me for a time very long (like 3 or 4 hours) and say that I try to restart my machine, or start with the Windows key + b, etc., they said that my laptop is out of warranty, and there is nothing that they can help me with.

    I confess that the laptop is out of warranty... but only suffers from the update of the official firmware that cannot be downgraded. Yes, I know I'm supposed to buy a new replacement HP laptop. But... This look bad.

    Now, I'll get a replacement bios chip, programmed with the previous version of the bios and soldered to the motherboard...

    Hello to the guys at HP support. They are nice people who try to be useful, they don't know anything about their products :-)

    Hello programmers to the HP bios... Please... Please be better, please learn that bugs can be corrected.

    Problem solved! :-D

    I downgraded to F.0E
