Hello erosfaus, here is the link for the specifications of your system. Since you don't mention which version of Windows 7 (32-bit or 64-bit) you want to install on your system, you may want to download and run the Windows Upgrade Advisor to see if your system can be upgraded to Windows 7.

I also checked for an update of the BIOS and did not find one for your system.

Because your system was shipped with Windows XP, you would not be able to upgrade to Windows 7, but be required to perform a new installation. It is of course, if your system can be upgarded to Windows 7.

Here is the link for Windows Upgarde Advisor.

    Hello

    I have the HP Pavilion 15-e017tx for the past 8 months.

    Press f12 to this machine is shared by the key wireless button, which was working fine until there was a BIOS update last week.

    Now I try to turn off the wireless using this button it will not respond (light orange).

    I checked the Device Manager, there seems to be a problem with the driver.

    IF you have knowledge of this problem please let me know.

    Thank you

    Hello:

    The update of the BIOS should affect the driver wireless button.

    I would recommend that you reinstall as the unknown device is probably the one.

  • The HP Pavilion a6560z bios update

    I have a HP Pavilion a6560z. Product #: KZ851AV

    I tried to upgrade the processor of double base installed to a phenom x 4 9550, that my research shows is compatible as long as I have updated the bios. I am currently running bios version 5.14 20/06/2008. My problem is the OS original on this PC is Vista, I erased this OS and now run Win 7. I found an update of bios, version 5.49 but she said do not be there except if Vista is installed. Will install this bios brick Council since its desingned for vista?

    I can't enter the bios with the 9550 installed but it does not start in windows. The bios shows that it is a blah blah Phenom quad core, so at least he acknowledges that, but when I try to load windows it says "the file is maybe damaged. The file header checksum does not match the checksum calculated. "I read that had a memory problem and tried 8 different sticks, all with the same result, so I thought it was a bios problem. Anyway, any help on a version of bios, I can try without bricking advice would be greatly appreciated. Even if its for Vista that I am always willing to try. This pc is not much of value. Thank you.

    You are welcome.

  • Pavilion x 2 10-n155sa: bios update does not install

    HP Support Assistant on a new Pavilion x 2 detachable (10-n155sa) said that the needs of the (Doritos 2.0) bios updated. He is currently F04 and offered new is F06.

    I accept the option of automatic update and it downloads etc and to sit down again 'installation' for too long. The PC is not suspended and the update can be cancelled OK, to keep the laptop on F04. It seems not really 'out' at all and immediately cancels the installation (I expected to take a long time to regularize).

    The laptop is running. I tried several times now and just on the installation screen.

    Someone at - it ideas? Is there a problem with this update? Any alternative to the automated mechanism?

    KB10

    Hello KB10,.

    You try to update the bios through the HP Support assistant or you download the file directly on the site of HP?

    IF not, I'll try later.

    Here's the direct link... SP73945.exe

    But in all reality, If it's not broken don't fix it. IF you don't have problems with the bios, then do not update!

    BIOS update are a different animal than updating a driver. If something goes wrong, you have enabled your system in a brick.

    And the HP Support assistant says you need to update the bios is not because its necessary. Don't do that if its absolutely need.

    But good luck anyway.

  • Pavilion Media Center M8400f Bios Update for Windows 7

    HP Pavilion Media Center m8400f. The Vista operating system has been replaced by Windows 7 (64 bit) a number of years.

    I've updated one of my hard drives with a SanDisk SSD (it is now my main drive with the operating system and all my files on board).

    The bios on the PC has never been updated.

    The SanDisk SSD dashboard software will not recognize the SanDisk SSD as the system has designated the SSD as a SCSI device. I need to access the bios for this change to AHCI. The current bios does not support this.

    The PC has a card mother MCP61PM-HM. There is no update for Windows 7 BIOS for that motherboard I know (updates Vista only).

     

    SanDisk gave me a link to http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=pv-82094-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&... that shows a card mother M2P61PM-HM for m8400f desktop PC. This Bios download supports Windows 7 (64 bit).

    Can update the Bios to download safely a card mother M2P61PM-HM for card mother MCP61PM-HM I currently have?

    Hello

    The HP BIOS update link provided SanDisk is an update of the BIOS of your PC. It is listed under Win Vista 64 bit driver downloads here.

    If you look at the site to download the drivers for your PC you'll only see driver support for Win Vista but on 2010-04-08, Version 5.29, 1.47 M BIOS updatedshows support for Win 7.

    But the problem is this: the BIOS updates must be performed using the PC operating system comes with; in your case, Win Vista. Extreme care must be exercised when updating the BIOS under normal circumstances. I would not classify your situation as usual.

    I saw others download an update of the BIOS for their PC and try to install an operating system upgraded with disastrous effects. The PC was bricked.

    Be prepared for the worst case if you try to install the update to the BIOS.

    The recommendation in HP Support Assistant I've just updated BIOS version f33, f34.  This succeeded and the Pavilion starts normally.

    However when I try pressing ESC at startup key is ignored and the trunk.

    How to reactivate the computer to respond to the ESC key and allow me to access the system configuration utility?  Have I somehow corrupt CMOS data?

    SOLVED!  I discovered the site of download drivers HP there is more BIOS updates for my Pavilion, the last being F.42.  So I installed this.

    At that time, it was possible to get the system configuration utility by pressing the ESC key.  However, it works a cold power upward, not reboot.

    Also the window by pressing the key is very short, some say about one-fifth of a second, and if you press two times you do not see the system configuration at all.  If some patience is required.

  • Pavilion p7 - 1236 s BIOS update

    Last fall, I bought a Pavilion p7 - 1236 s and have bypassed just to install a better power supply and graphics card (EVGA gtx 770). Unfortunately, when the card is inserted, I'm stuck in the position, given a few beeps and sent to a black screen. After having verified that the card itself works by testing it on another computer, I decided I have to do to update the BIOS. Currently the version is FRIEND 7.11. So, I checked the HP site for an update of the BIOS for the p7 - 1236 s, but could not find one. Is it possible to find a BIOS update, or am I just bad luck?

    Hello

    You always have the right size of power supply in the p7 - 1236 s to get the video card to work. It has nothing to do with the other PC that you test the map.

    I don't see any bios updates for your model displayed.  You would probably need the level of 8 bios version.  Check with the HP Support and see if there is an update of the unaccounted-for bios version 8 available.
