  • Pavilion DM4 - 3090 Beats Edition - could not retrieve the BIOS update failed

    Hello everyone.

    I was trhe proud owner of a HP Pavilion dm4-3090 Beats Edition until two days ago, when I updated my BIOS, but I was unable to power on the laptop again. The system simply feeds the button WE and the Wifi (F12), HARD drive turns a bit, DVD player makes a noise and powers of fan on any USB flash drive connected to power system; but only for a period of 1-3 seconds.

     


    This process is repeated every 2 to 3 seconds.

    I have vain tried to restore the BIOS from the HARD drive (the HARD drive has not changed, I have still the partition HP_TOOLS in), with key combinations: Windows + B, Windows + P, Windows + Esc, Esc + Fn, Fn + B, Fn + P, four arrows. I also tried to do this via USB flash drive (with UEFI tool provided by HP), put some BIOS downloaded HP in the root and the current, New records and previous USB drive, once again, in vain. The laptop seems forever trying to read the USB key, just it under tension and that's all.

    So my question is if you please tell me what I do wrong and also, is there is another way to try to get it back.

    Thank you very much in advance.

    Resolved to send to a third party service for a reflash BIOS.

    The solution is

    I had installed a better Nvidia GTX-950 video card. By hitting the ESC, it hangs and nothing happens. Black screen, although you can see slightly change the colors

    I understand you are looking for assistance for the recovery of the BIOS by using the shortcut, or by using a USB key. I'm happy to help you with this.

    Here are two documents for you to check. Of course, the first is specific to desktop computers and covers the shortcut key. The other property that for laptops also includes a section on the use of a USB device.

    Also on the support forums, there is a process described by @HaggisCat, you can find of use in the preparation of a USB flash drive. You will need to have the correct BIOS softpaq to go with it.

    You will need to use the tools of recovery on your installation media. If you don't have any facility (such as a disc or USB device) support, contact your system administrator or the computer manufacturer.

    I tried a system restore, which did not work. I ran diagnostics and everything seemed OK.

    I hit escape to enter diagnosis, and if this can help, information on the system gave me-

    I did research on the problem and discovered that the issue was "the BIOS corruption failure" according to the information on the link below:

    I tried to recover the BIOS using an external storage device by following the instructions at the link below:

    Is there anyway I can fix it soon or get my files as soon as possible. Help, please!

    Have you ever updated the BIOS before?

    If you have, you should be able to recover the BIOS using the Windows key + key B method.

    All holding the key Windows + B button down, press the power button and wait to see if the laptop responds with a message of recovery of the BIOS on screen.

    As my wife continued his mastery, I insisted on his recording of his files periodically to our home network NAS.

    You can remove the hard drive and connect it to a desktop computer to get the files from it. You can connect the hard drive to a USB to sata cable to connect it to a laptop.   Instructions to access the disk by opening the back door are on page 42 of the maintenance and service guide. The hard drive is part replaceable by the user, so you don't have to worry about voiding the warranty.

  • HP ENVY m6-n113dx Notebook PC: update the BIOS F.22A and keyboard

    Hello

    I was hoping that over time someone would have posted something with a similar problem, I have, but its been a while so I guess I would ask and I hope an answer and I hope I'm not the only one experiencing this problem.

    Awhile back, I upgraded my laptop BIOS (HP ENVY Notebook PC m6-n113dx) from F.21A to F.22A, who apperently offers improved performance of the internal keyboard. After the update, nothing seemed very different. However when I play a game and press a key on the keyboard, the charater would sometimes get stuck on this action of the key as if she was held down. Usually, I just press the button again to stop this action, although this has become an embarrassment.

    I've been reading the forums and found a lot of options for apperently decommissioning of your BIOS to earlier versions, but I would like to know where I can find a how to or may downgrade my BIOS of F.22A to F.21A, especially for my laptop.

    Thanks in advance

  • 23 - d030 looking for hardware virtualization assisted in the bios configurations envy

    Office all-in - One HP Envy TouchSmart 23-d030

    WIN8 Pro 64 bit (improved win8)
    BIOS: LA3_810.ROM 8.10

    I need to enable "hardware assisted virtualization" in the bios, but there is no parameters (that I can find) to do. Yes, I went through the security settings in the bios. I ran MS CoreInfo.exe and the computer is good for the VHA and LATTE. DEP is good as well (checked via Control Panel............ System properties). Hyper-V is enabled in the operating system. Is there some 'hidden' attributes that I don't see in the bios?

    FYI the point of this is that I'm trying to get phone win8 emulator to run.

    Thanks for any input.

    Thanks for the reply and the problem lies, I only have the setting for Vtx/Vtd, who is disabled because it must be determined in accordance with the documentation of MS (in my case). I don't have the DEP setting. Now just for S & G I activated the setting and guess what... the phone emulator worked! Maybe in the bios I have they rolled up a number of things in a setting, I can only guess. But it does not work so I'll close this. Thanks for the help.

  • HP Envy 15 - q47002 i7: laptop overheating, does not recognize any USB. Even in the Bios.

    Hello

    I bought this product last year, so my warranty wore off.

    My laptop is overheating and it is very slow at this point (even videos are not working well). I tried to clean it up but it was without result.  I want the game and computationally intensive applications, but I'm afraid of the motherboard or hard drive failure.

    Now to the point. I can't install the new OS, any OS because this laptop doesn't have a DVD player and it doesn't recognize any usb 2.0 or 3.0.  I tried to change the options in the Bios and I tried to uninstall and install the drivers (they are up to date).

    What should I do? I can't install a new system because of this problem, and I can't use anything more demanding than youtube which is really annoying since this laptop has good specifications.

    I am currently running Windows 8.1 which I got when I made a purchase.

    I hope someone answers!

    Thank you.

    EDIT: In the Device Manager it says device not installed with yellow exclamation point. By Usb or ext hdd. And it will not find the device-specific drivers. As I never need them on another PC or laptop.

    I'm trying to locate my envy Touchsmart Ultrabook 4 power management settings.   I am running the Insyde BIOS verision F.23.  When I open the BIOS to F10 (I also tried F10 + A with no result) before starting the only options are to hand, security, System Config. in and out.  Is anyway to get the advanced settings in the BIOS?  Thank you.

    Woodyzen3000,

    I understand that you are looking for the power management option in the bios.

    After doing some checking this bios has no option for the management of food as some old versions of some time got back on our old systems. I was actually able to get their hands on a similar Ultrabook built with the same version of the bios and the options are no longer present.

    It is possible that perhaps a next version will be the available option. In order to keep an eye on this link because the future updates to the bios would be here. You simply enter the product number, and then select your operating system.

    If you have any questions do not hesitate to ask.
