Base HP EliteBook 840 G1 model: Bios password


Hello

Unfortunately, business machines such as Probooks or EliteBook have more strict security consumption patterns - they do not produce "stop codes", the password cannot be derived from the serial number and the code is stored in a nonvolatile memory to remove the RTC cell does not reset the password in this case.

If you Contact HP Business support they should be able to file a custom SMC.bin that you can use to reset the password at startup.

    Anyone know why the BIOS version 01.07 (sp76235) for EliteBook 840 G3 is taken?

    Link to the BIOS:

    The date is 1 January 3000 so he has obvisoly something wrong and HP do not want to install, I have deployed it to a large number of machines and would like to know what kind of questions, it is hoped.

    A new version 01.10 came out with these fixes:

    -Fixes a problem that causes the display to become visually distorted (flicker).
    -Fixes an issue where a system running Windows 7 with active hard drive encryption is unable to power (boot) after the BIOS is updated.
    -Prevents the BIOS downgraded below the 1.09 version.

    NOTE: After loading the BIOS version, older versions of BIOS may not be installed.

    Security is very strict.

    Remove the password admin or start will require replacement of the motherboard or BIOS CMOS chip with one that has been programmed with a new copy of a ROM family file there is place of BIOS.
