    I can finally see the images. Do you have access to BIOS and click on Security options, if they exist?

    Your images do not show that. InSyde BIOSes are normally sections of Configuration, security and startup options.

    Power button, immediately press the ESC key a few times to display the Start menu and then select F10 for BIOS. F9 is for boot options. Also, there is a screen of Boot options in the BIOS.

  • Support for UEFI BIOS

    I have an IQ826t which took the HARD disk crash.  So I bought a thought of HDD 3TO it is a fairly new computer with Windows 7 Professional and it would not be a problem.  Well, it seems that the system must support UEFI and I can't find the settings in the BIOS.

    If anyone knows if there is an update of the BIOS which allow UEFI?  Seems that HP does not update the BIOS for my wonderful system.

    Thank you

    Bill Cook

    Hey Bill,.

    The IQ826t delivered with Vista, so if you are running windows 7 it has been upgraded. The PC was actually launched early 2009 (January 2009) is actually slightly older. UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface) is a new type of interface BIOS, HP Starte their use in Consumer Desktops and TouchSmarts around spring 2010. Unfortunately, there is not a way to update a UEFI BIOS. The reason to, it's because of the way it deals with space, the old BIOS version can handle hard drives up to 2.2 TB.

    So unfortuately you won't be able to see all the 3 TB of this player.

    Sorry

  • Pavilion dv6-3177ee (XW119EA #ABV), BIOS: F.23 support UEFI (GPT partitioning)?

    Serial number: {removed privacy}
    Product name: HP Pavilion dv6-3177ee
    Product no.: XW119EA #ABV
    System BIOS: F.23 (Insyde) [diagnostic system (F2) supported]
    OS: Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 6.1.7601
    SMBIOS 2.6

    This BIOS does support UEFI (TPG)?
    If the HD is partitioned to TPG, Windows 7 Home Premium can be reinstalled from the created under MBR recovery DVD?
    In the case of dual-boot, LINUX support the GPT?
    In addition, boot.ini could be tweaked to boot LINUX?

    If the HD is partitioned to TPG, Windows 7 Home Premium can be reinstalled from the created under MBR recovery DVD?

    HP recovery will erase the entire hard drive and restore it on an MBR disk and all the original scores, so no, it won't work.

    I do not know if this bios supports the start of TPG,

    Hello, where can I download the bios laptop delphi d40? Thank you.

    I'm afraid, I can't find your model in the HP support site and I'm not familiar with 'DELPHI D40'. What appears in the Google search on DELPHI D40 is very unclear results.

    Could you provide details on your model - could you post the complete model name and product number > > http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Miscellaneous-Topics-Read-Only/Advice-for-asking-the-quot-Very-Best-Question-quot/td-p/83280

    Another option if you are using WIndows is to visit http://support.hp.com with Internet Explorer > section downloads and drivers and the system will provide you with an option to detect the pattern. It will offer you then the possibilities for including the BIOS downloads.

    You can also try to download updates for the HP computer, including updates to the BIOS/UEFI with HP Support Assistant.  Here's how to use HPSA:

  • Environment support UEFI HP or environment Support HP Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI)

    You have a question. I have a laptop HP 2000-2b19wm. I bought this system. It came with Windows 8. After I got it I have completely got rid of Windows 8 and IMHO set level to Windows 7 Ultimate. I deleted all partitions and let 7 configure the hard disk the way he wanted, got the drivers and so on and so forth. (not worried about security, I can handel most hardware repairs and software patches).

    I looked to see if there was a new BIOS available and there was, however, I also noticed that there are two things called environment support UEFI HP and HP Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) Support environment. I know they have to with the Diagnostics and recovery of a bad BIOS flash.

    The question is this. Install HP UEFI Support Environment or environment Support HP Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI)?

    Hi @bfldworker ,

    Thank you for your query.

    UEFI is preinstalled on your laptop.  It does not reside on the hard drive, so when you have formatted and installed Windows 7, it should not affect it.

    If you want to check this press the "F2" key shorten once every second on startup (before Windows loads) and he has to show the menu.

    I hope that this has answered your concerns.

    What does that mean?

    Secure boot is a protocol feature not a Windows 8 of UEFI recent incidents made of PC/Laptop, etc. This is a feature implemented in the BIOS of a PC/laptop.

    Old PC do not have this in the setup of the BIOS, so it cannot be used.

    > 1. How to create a DVD repair or start for windows 8.1 pro with UEFI Bios and boot secured.
    To be able to boot from sources other than the drive HARD internal, the boot mode must be set to the CSM and secure boot must be disabled!

    > 2. I created a USB recovery using the control panel in Windows Pro 8.1. It starts OK. It will be the same as that I've created using the Toshiba Media recovery creator or will it drivers Windows Pro 8.1?

    Your laptop has been preloaded with Win 8. Right? For example, the USB flash stick memory you just use the Toshiba Recovery media creator contains the Image of Toshiba with Windows 8. Don t mix this Toshiba image with the image that can be created using Microsoft's own backup and restore function. Both are different pictures!

    > 3. Check it with disk management, then 3 (450MO, 350 MB and GB 10.90) recovery partitions, 1 EFI system partition and 2 partitions primary (C: programs) and D: for data. I created the recovery DVD and USB 2 disks. Can I remove the 3 recovery partitions?

    The last partition contains the files on HARD drive recovery. Usually this partition will be created again when you use the Toshiba Recovery disk to put the laptop back to factory settings. So in the case where you n t need this files or the partition, you can delete

  • HP Pavilion 1053 does support UEFI?

    Hello

    Please, I would like to know if my pc HP PAVILION 1053 supports UEFI (win pro 64-bit), because:

    -In the bios, I have a menu called 'UEFI TOOLS',

    - But, on the page to download the drivers from the computer, here, there is nothing for the UEFI.

    If my pc supports UEFI, do I install the UEIF HP DIAGNOSTIC TOOL to make it work? Because now, when I click on the menu "UEFI", nothing happens.

    With kindness.

    Hello faroukal, from your description of the events that you are experiencing, they are all normal.

    The black screen with cursor blinking in the upper left corner is normal for all systems.

    It is when the BIOS/UEFI running control system of the operating system, which in your case is - this Windows 7 Pro.

    The UEFI functionality isn't actually the BIOS of old style, but a code of the firmware that is added to the BIOS. Legacy devices means that they are controlled by the UEFI and not the BIOS.

    You should see a section that you can use for the BIOS and not the UEFI, but I suggest letting the UFEI in the control of legacy devices. It's better that the BIOS control works.

    You should be able to locate the command of Start Menu in the BIOS. You should be able to select:

    UEFI boot sources

    Sources of boot legacy

    ATAPI CD-ROM

    Hard drive

    (WDC WD30000HLF-60G6U2)

    Network controller.

    This is just an example and would not be the exact options for your system.

    Hybrid boot or hibernation modes might be interesting to try.  You should see an improvement. SSD can make a big difference in the performance of the PC.

    Since my upgrade to Windows 10 32 bit Windows 7 32 bit, I am unable to access the BIOS (UEFI).

    I try to access BIOS because I want to do a clean install of Windows 10 64-bit, DVD, or USB key.

    I did the setting-> security update & -> Recovery-> Advanced Startup restart now-> then I clicked on troubleshooting-> Advanced Options-> and I can not find the UEFI (BIOS) settings.

    When I start my computer I lost the option "Press the F2 or F12 key" to access the BIOS.

    Thanks for your help.

    My computer: Satellite L750, PSK2YA-0L0802S

    OK if you are interested in the topic you can try with a facility for testing purposes, but if there are many different issues and problems, I think that you should install the recovery original image again and use your laptop with 'presets' again.

    You can enter the BIOS settings?

    In General, you can try to start the installation of USB if you press F12 on startup and choose USB as a boot device. It works for you?

    Please notify.

    WhiteLion70, welcome to the forum.

    HP didn't start using UEFI until mid-October 2012.  Your computer was released June 2, 2011.  Therefore, your motherboard has a legacy BIOS and cannot be upgraded in the UEFI.
