How do I export/backup BIOS to my laptoop HP DV6T

I have a HP Pavilion DV6T laptop and I want to export/backup of the BIOS and check it on my local NAS server. I don't have a problem at the moment.  This is 'just in case '.

The problem is, I can't find a way to accomplish the backup BIOS.  Someone who did this please give some advice I can follow any box backup?

HP does not provide a manual method or software to do this, but when you upgrade the bios and the HP_TOOLS partition is intact, it will save the old bios in a folder on the partition of tools, it also stores a copy of the current bios file to a different folder.

They can be found in the bios folder on partition HP_TOOLS

in the folder bios, there are 3 other files, current is the currently installed bios, previous is the version of the bios that was replaced last time the bios has been updated. Inside these folders will be a .bin and .sig, file save both and not mix it up with other bios bin or GIS, files cannot be flashed without the appropriate GIS file that matches the bin file.

You may temporarily need to assign a drive letter to the partition of tools if it is hidden, use disk management to do this, be sure to remove the drive letter when you are finished.

  • How do I export data from one day to backup disk.

    Hi all

    Here we have a requirement like, we need to download the data from one day to the external drive and we must compire the exported data and the data in the table.
    I googled and I have discovered that using expdp command we can export the table content, but my Question is how do I export data from one day. My table having 2 years of data and I need download the data of only one day.

    expdp scott/tiger@db10g tables = EMP, DEPT = TEST_DIR dumpfile = EMP_DEPT.dmp expdpEMP_DEPT.log = logfile directory

    Can someone tell me how to download data from one day to the table & compare data exported with the data in the table. (I know both exported and data of the table data will be the same that we are downloading data of the actual table, but for tests, I need to know how to compare).


    Thank you
    Sree

    However, I do not understand the scenario but here is a way to compare:
    (1) change the name of the table newly created in another name
    (2) import the exported file once again

    you will have the same data in both tables

  • How to get to the BIOS on new XPS 8700?

    How to get to the BIOS on new XPS 8700?

    This is a brand new machine with Win 8.1, a SSD boot drive, etc.

    I need to get in the BIOS so that I can prepare for the recovery with Acronis backup program. This program will generate a recovery disk or flash drive. If my boot drive does not start, I will use the recovery point, but I need to have the BIOS first try to start from that before the C drive.

    Reading messages on the Acronis forum, I heard for the first time on UEFI - I barely understand what it is - but apparently, a replacement for the BIOS?

    Is it likely that my new machine has UEFI rather than a BIOS? and how do to it? Press a function button for the system to start? A person on the Acronis forum suggested to win 8.1 to restart and hold the SHIFT key while doing.

    I do not experiment on my PC unless I am sure it is the right method. This is my 4th Dell-all previous versions came with a manual that could give me the answer to a question like that.

    The "missing manual" is perhaps on the Dell website?

    Joe

    Your system is UEFI.

    As the UEFI systems start very quickly, you start typing (do not hold) F2 as soon as you power on open configuration. Otherwise, it will just start normally from the hard disk.

    Alternatively, you can start to type F12 as soon as you turn on that should give you a start with options menu to boot from the optical drive or USB. Note: To boot from USB FlashDrive bootable is connected before you turn on the system, otherwise it does not appear as an option in the menu of F12.

    See page 82 in the Manual.

  • How do you export groups of tabs, bookmarks, and history fron a computer to another computer

    I found myself replacing my computer for various reasons and need to recover all my data from my old computer to the new. However, when it came to Firefox and my groups of tabs, bookmarks and history, I have not found any real way to export them to the other computer. is it possible to record all this information and then move it to the new computer? It's exhausting to have to lose all my save information as well as all of the tabs that I have because I need them and it takes a long time to copy and paste all my address in a text and saving it like that.

    in the links list, I read on registration and export and restore everything except for groups.

    Of course, it would be nice if they just don't go away, but as long a they do (as with the last upgrade FF8.0) I would like to know where they are stored (so I can get time machine) and how I can export for use on other devices.

    It would also be useful for FF sync to synchronize them - there is no mention of this - that's why I stayed with Xmarks for the moment - as has also lets me sync with Chrome and Safari.

  • How can I reset password BIOS on Satellite Pro M30?

    Hello!

    I have a portable Satellite Pro M30 and my son has changed my bios password and now I can't even start it! How can I reset the bios? Where is the bios battery out of MB, then reset as in desktop? Is there a jumper for the deal if all else fails? What should I try?

    Thank you all in advance.

    John.

    Hello John

    Remove the CMOS battery didn't help much. If the removal of the BIOS can be so easy, remove the password on the stolen units may be too simple. Please don? t wait that these information will be posted here.

    You can contact the after-sales Service of Toshiba partner. They will remove password for you.

    Good luck!

  • How can you get into BIOS on a Satellite 320 CD.

    Hi my name is steve, I was wondering how get you into the BIOS on a satellite 320 CD. Because it's my first format at the top of a tower. Done a lot on the office laptops just never. As some fool tried to do before me and distroyed it. Now the only thing that happens is when the toshiba logo disappears this message appears, INVALID SYSTEM DISK, REPLACE THE DISK, THEN press ANY KEY. It allows to run Windows 98 and it worked great for what age there. Hoping to put XP on it, but its only got a small hard drive (4099 mb). So will hand 98 on it until I get a bigger hard drive. Only need to teach my daughter how to respect a laptop. I want to get into the BIOS for the format. No instructions on how to enter the BIOS would be great, because I'm good from there. Thanks in advance for your help.

    Hello

    You suggested that you want to enter the BIOS to format the HARD drive. Very strange.
    However, if you want to boot from the CD so you can also use the C button immediately after the power button.
    The laptop should boot from the CD of Win98. The installation procedure contains a HARD drive format option.
