  I did recently on my HP ProBook 450 G2 Kubuntu Linux 15.10 running.

  A new version of the BIOS (01.16 Rev.A 1 December 2015) was available, but for Windows only.

  What I had to do to install the BIOS under Linux:

  * Download the exe file (for example: sp74048.exe): this is an archive

  * unpack with 7zip

  * go to my laptop configuration: restart, press [ESC] >

  Configuration of the BIOS F10 > MAIN > system update BIOS > BIOS update using local media

  * read the instructions:

  "Place the system on a FAT32 partition no BIOS BIN file more

  on the system or on a removable USB hard drive

  under the folder "Hewlett-Packard\BIOS\New.

  Then, add or verify that the HP Bios update utility (HpBiosUpdate.efi)

  and the signature file (HpBiosUpdate.s12) are

  on the same partition FAT32 under

  the path to the following folder: "Hewlett-Packard\BIOSUpdate. »

  * Take a flash drive, create the folder ""Hewlett-Packard\BIOS\ " "

  copy the whole folder "BIOSUpdate" since the original installation file for her

  create the "New" folder and copy the bin on it (in my case "M74_0116.bin")

  * If at the end, the flash drive looks like this:

  \---Hewlett-Packard

  + - BIOS

  | \---New

  |      Mxx_xxxx. bin

  |

  \---BIOSUpdate

  all files here

  * place the flash drive in the laptop and "BIOS update using local media" hit the button [I accept] below "the system BIOS will be updated immediately.'." "

  Then update the BIOS HP appears saying: the system BIOS is updated day. > writing new BIOS Image. > Veryfying new BIOS Image. > restart.

  Fact.

  It is really beyond me why HP does not provide a simple archive with the appropriate directory structure and a readme file so that anyone could update the BIOS regardless of operating system.

  Warning: I'm just an average Linux user. This procedure worked for me, but before use, you must consider the risks for yourself. You SHOULD know what you're doing.

• HP ProBook 6570b: Windows 10 ProBook 6570b BIOS update

  When will there be a version 10 of Windows to upgrade the BIOS (the more recent version, currently available for Windows only, 8.1 F.62 Rev.A, file name sp71172.exe) for my HP ProBook 6570 b?

  In fact, you can update using the file for Windows 8.1:

  1. Download the BIOS update sp71172.exe for Windows 8.1.
  2. Run, but do not select update now, but to create a USB key for update.
  3. Follow the instructions to create the USB key. This works on Windows 10.
  4. Reset.
  5. Access the configuration Menu by pressing ESC followed by F10.
  6. Find the option to update the BIOS on the USB key and follow the instructions.

• BIOS update for HPE-450 t

  I received an alert that a BIOS update is available for my registered product, HPE-450 t, who solved a problem with wake up from sleep mode.  I've had this problem since purchasing the product 2 years, incidentally.  I downloaded the upgrade, the file sp49851.exe and follow the instructions.  That installation began, he stopped and pointed out that the BIOS file was invalid or damaged and he said to try again and if still at default contact supports.  I tried also and after many misdirection and confusion decided to try this forum.

  Currently I am in no worse shape than before, I avoid the mode 'sleep' in leaving the cpu all the time.  But I prefer to use "sleep" mode if the update fixes actually it.  No one knows what the problem with this update?

  Operating system is Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit update to SP1, 12 GB of memory.

  It is an update of the BIOS for a different motherboard.  Your system has the card mother iona-gl8e and related BIOS update is for a card mother Μatx-s880 of H - R.

  To make sure that the BIOS Setup has the security check, I tried to install this BIOS on my system.  I received the message that it is the incorrect BIOS for my system, so you should not be able to install the BIOS anyway.  I don't know why you received the notification, but I would like to ignore it (do not install anyway).

  

  Thanks for the update of the community.

• ProBook G3 450: Impossible to update driver Conexant HD Audio

  I tried to update the Conexant HD Audio Driver on my ProBook 450 G3 (Win7 Pro 64 - bit) whenever HP Support Assistant offers the update. The last proposed update was SP74946 (10.0.877.61 Q5). The update seems to be successful and I am prompted to restart. After restarting, the older version of the driver (8.65.133.0) is still installed and HP Support Assistant continues to offer the update. My system is up to date with all of the other horses and Windows Update installed.

  Hello

  You are welcome

  This looking a little further, I think I can see what is the problem (I do not work for HP, so you can check this with them).

  Anyway, looking at the cva for this update on the link below (under the [General] section) the pilot that version is listed by Conexant as 10.0.877.61, however this is assigned the seller Version 8.65.133.0_9.0.69.53 - 2.109.0.0 which is what you have already installed.

  http://FTP.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp74501-75000/sp74946.CVA

  So what I think happens is that HPSA sees 10.0.877.61 as a newer version, but it installs with the seller (HP) Version number 8.65.133.0 driver - and so the cycle continues.

  In addition, when you uncompress the SP74946 Installer, the worm text document lists the version of the driver as 8.65.133.0_9.0.69.53 - 2.109.0.0

  Kind regards

• ProBook 450 SSD of G1 problems

  Hi all that I just had a Probook G1 450, Walker has problems after replacing the HDD with a SSD.

  Windows installed just fine, but as soon as I installed some drivers, mostly related to the media storage to intel and ETC I get a BSOD with the stop 0x0000001E, and I can't solve it.

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Thanks in advance.

  Hi Mrstenter,

  In fact, the problem is caused by the HP 3D DriveGuard driver, if you skip the installation when you have an SSD installed, giving no problem. FYI the SSD, I used was a MX1000 Crucial 256 GB. And after I jumped this instalation driver laptop currently works perfectly.

  Thank you

• HP ProBook 450 SSD cold start problem

  Hello. I recently bought new HP ProBook 450 H6P53EA with SSD (SanDisk SDSSSDHP128G) included.

  After the first commissioning of this message came:

  "Boot Device not found.

  "Please install an operating system on your hard drive."

  "Hard Disk (3F0).

   

  I just thought about it it might be true that the laptop came without OS (probably SUSE there, but I did not even notice) so I went just to install Windows 8.

  Everything works fine and I am very satisfied BUT

  my laptop is turned a few hours every time this message and the operating system cannot be started.

  After pressing enter short menu appears (with memory/disk check options I think) and I'm heading directly at the exit and when it starts up again everything seems to be ok.

  After reboot or a short period of time when the laptop is liquidated everything is always very well. So, it seems that the problem only occurs when the laptop is down for several hours. All possible solutions?

  Thank you.

• ProBook G3 450: I've updated the bios on my g3 Probook 450 and now potrs usb do not work

  I've updated the bios and after restarting the pc no usb port work and the usb serial bus is not listed in Device Manager. I have not received any error.

  Hi Richrob,

  Usually after the BIOS updates I recommend restoring the default BIOS because some parameters may change or managed power States must be refreshed. If you start at the F10 menu there will be a restoration of the default BIOS on the home page.

  If the USB bus does not return to the top after restoring default values, try to reinstall the USB driver. You can find the latest version for Windows 7 here.

• HP Probook G3 450: Start slowly after bios update

  Hello everyone,

  I am a new user of laptop Hp so I need your help, I want to thank you for your time to read and help me with this problem.

  Yesterday, I updated the bios Hp SoftPaq Download Manager recommendation. Progress to succeed and the result of this action made my laptop boot really slowly. The first time, it took just 10 seconds to start windows 10 compared to more than two minutes after the update of the bios.

  I've already searched google for help, but it still does not originally.

  Please help me with your experience on it, I really appreciate all your help.

  Best wishes

  Assuming that this PC came with the edition of Win10, all I can guess at this point is the default setting for FastStartup is in conflict with the new version of the BIOS.  It is a new form of hibernation which is supposed to speed up your boot process, but in some cases, it actually slows down.

  There are two ways to disable FastStartup Win8/10; (1) via the control panel and (2) through a command prompt high.
  
  Control Panel - open Control Panel-> Power Options.
  Select ' choose what buttons power. "
  Select "change settings that are currently unavailable".
  At the bottom of the window, under stop settings, uncheck the box about quick startup
  
  High - command prompt run the following command:
  REG ADD "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Power" v HiberbootEnabled /T REG_dWORD 0 f d
  
  In both cases, restart Windows.

  If this doesn't fix it, there is something to play and while this PC is still under warranty, you should contact HP Customer Support directly so they put you in contact with HP Tech Support to see what they can do on the diagnosis and repair of your machine remotely.
  
  I did recently, and HP technology was able to remotely access my PC on the Internet and to make the necessary repairs.

• HP ProBook 6440 b: BIOS/CMOS admin password

  Installing windows 7 Professional, I discovered that I couldn't get into the BIOS or because it was the password for protected configuration. I tried a number of things, including the installation of HP ProtectTools Security stuff and it seems that everything what has done is to create several connection passwords. I can now in the program installation, but as a user, but not as an administrator, and so I can not change password. There is also another screen that shows where I have to enter a password and I don't know if what is happening due to the HP protect tools that I installed and then removed, or something in the BIOS. I uninstalled HP protect tools and reinstall windows 7 and I see still two password screens. I tried to update the BIOS by using a file downloaded from the HP Web site, but can not because I do not know the admin for access to the BIOS password.
