pavilion dv6 7031tx BIOS update
I have a Pavilion DV6-7031TX laptop and I would like to add the latest version of the BIOS that I install windows 7 or 8 as UEFI. The bios that is currently on the laptop is dated 2013 and its number is F29. When I go to the support page, I get a listing for the f.0Une of the 2012 Version. When I check the windows list 8 it is a BIOS date of 2014 F.2D number.
The BIOS located on the laptop is nowhere located? This machine is less than 12 months and it seems odd that this would have a version of BIOS HP does not list?
I DID using the phone number and talked to someone who had NO IDEA what I was talking about and all I want is a simple answer, I do use install the BIOS listed for windows 8? (don't understand why HP has it filed under win8 just like win7 can also use UEFI environment).
I hope that someone at HP knows the information I'm looking for?
Hello
It certainly isn't the first time I saw a laptop comes with a version of bios that will never appear as a download option - I do not work for HP, so I can't give you an explanation for this.
Regarding the latest version of the bios of your laptop, F.2D, the cva file lists Windows 7 and Windows 8, which is what I expected.

8 GB of additional ram to add to my HP Pavilion dv6-7031tx laptop?
Last week, I bought the HP Pavilion dv6-7031TX notebook pc. It's a great laptop for games with 2 GB nvidia GT 630 M, but it came with only 4 GB of DDR3 ram. Now my question is, how much more ram can I add to my laptop? and what brands should be compatible other than HP?
On the HP site, I found that the phone supports up to 8 GB memory DDR3 (http://h20386.www2.hp.com/AustraliaStore/Product.aspx), but when I used the crucial scanner (http://www.crucial.com/systemscanner/), he suggested the 16 GB (8 GB x 2) kit. What does that mean?
Hello:
The product specification page is incorrect.
You can install 2 x 8 GB memory PC3-12800 (DDR3-1600).
See Chapter 1, page 4 of the the service manual on the link below.
http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c03216834.PDF
I live in the United States, so I don't know what brands are available in Australia.
If you can get Kingston, Crucial, Patriot, G.Skill, those would be nice.
Just make sure it is PC3-12800, no ECC, unbuffered memory.
The Crucial system scanner will present the memory you need specs-wise.

Pavilion dv6-2115aa: Pavilion dv6-2115sa BIOS corruption failure
My laptop does not start and flashes the caps locks and MOM sighted twice, which according to locking elsewhere on the forum, is a BIOS corruption failure. However, I can't find a BIOS version anywhere on the HP support site to re-install it, especially not for Win10. Will there be a third safe to download from?

Whenever the laptop to install the update. Then when you restart it will read the updates of configuration failure. Restoration of the changes.
This continues until 30 minutes before it finally restarts
Hi @mayurz91 ,
Thank you for visiting the Forums HP's Support and welcome. I looked in your question about your problems of HP Pavilion dv6-7040tx laptop and with updates.
Here is a link to the HP Support Assistant. Simply download and run the application and it will help with the software and drivers on your system.
If you run an antivirus protection, this could be a problem. Disable temporarily to perform the required updates.
Note Remove all USB devices. Disconnect all devices of non-essential, as these can cause some problems.
Plug the power supply directly to a wall outlet works. Do not connect it a power strip, surge arrester, or secondary power source as this could cause and issue.
I hope this helps.
Thank you.

Pavilion 15-p246sa: BIOS update successful but cannot now access the BIOS screen
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.

HP Pavilion dv6-7029wm: BIOS display on an external monitor
Hello
The screen of my laptop has been broken for quite awhile now and I tried to find a way to be able to view the BIOS on an external monitor.
I tried pressing f2 and f8, f10 or esc on startup and try using f4 to toggle the display without result.
As a side note, when I press f10 if I try to press keys f later my computer makes a high-pitched beep, I don't know if this means anything but I feel like it is worth noting. I use an external keyboard, so I don't have a fn key, if all that matters.
Finally, I tried to disconnect the front lcd screen but my attempts to disassemble my laptop in the past have not exactly well and I do not trust myself without ruining things more far.
What I can do about it, or am I out of luck?
I'm afraid you're out of luck when it comes to BIOS on external monitor display. The switch of the F4 does that once the computer is started. Same goes for making a recovery system - several have posted asking how to see recovery on external monitor... screens cannot be done.
Your Service and Maintenance Guide should help with reeplacing lcd.

Pedro MarthonHello PedroMarthon.
Are you currently overclocking the graphics card?
In order to solve this problem, I think you should uninstall third-party drivers and use the official drivers for Windows 7 and the workaround posted by my peers. The reason I suggest, is that the use of third-party drivers could cause strange problems and it will be easier to solve the problem.
What I would say is remove the third-party drivers and then using the method posted in my response above. Once the process is complete, I would try and then update the BIOS again. If successful, you can remove Windows 7 drivers and again use your third-party drivers. However, I'm not against the use of third-party drivers.
I appreciated the way in which you have been given to work with me, so I went to come your messages of congratulations. If you think that I was helpful please click the White Star under my name to give my messages of congratulations. I would really appreciate it!
I will keep an eye out for your next answer. I wish you a nice day!

Hi @guido651,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
It's a great place to find answers and information.
You have the best experience in the HP forum, I would like to draw your attention to the Guide of the HP Forums.
I understand that after upgrade to Windows 10 of Windows 7 that you had problems with the laptop. You tried to return to your original operating system, but was invited to the disc that you did not. Then, you used a Windows 7 disc to reinstall the operating system.
If you do not format the drive and remove the recovery partition, you can use it to perform a recovery to factory. If you format the disk and the partition has been deleted and you need to contact HP support to acquire a laptop HP recovery kit.
Here is a link to help you try the recovery.
HP computers - performing a recovery of system HP (Windows 7)
During the recovery process, there will be an option to backup your data to prevent loss, if you don't the have not made one and I would like now is the time.
If you need to get the recovery kit, please contact HP to Contact HP Supportassistance.

HP Pavilion dv6 6080 ep: update of HP Pavilion dv6 6080 ep memory
Hello
I own a HP Pavilion dv6 6080ep. It came with 4 GB of RAM and it has an intel processor i5. In order to do an upgrade of RAM I get Manual HP on memory full capacity. It is said that for this model, with the i5 processor it could go up to 16 GB of memory. When I searched for the spare part of HP, he said that both the 621569-001, the 4 GB and the 634091-001, for the 8 GB, should be replaced by 641369-001 and 670034-001. Let me stress to you that these replacements have slightly different form of the original. I searched among the brands of memory there, specifically Kingston and crucial that said for this model I can get 8GB in mind. I think sincerely lost now. The amount of memory can my laptop really gets and there is no record of RAM I should know about off?
Thanks in advance,
PauloPS: I was planning on getting a tp of Kingston KVR1333D3S9 / 8G add to my original 4 GB. (for a total of 12 GB)
This is max 16 GB of DDR3 - 1333 PC3 - 10600 SO-DIMM aka. DDR3-1600 will downclock at 1333, and that's what you're probably see. I'd get 2 identical modules and not mix and match old and more recent memory. You prefer the modules with 8 blocks of black memory on each side (low density) as the HPs like the better guy.
This works, for example:
Even though it says 1.35 volts it will work also to 1.5 volts if necessary. memory of 1.35 volts is a better product because they choose only the best RAM for low voltage memory chips.

HP Pavilion 23-b010 BIOS updated
I have a question about updating the BIOS on my HP Pavilion 23-b010. Currently installed BIOS is version 8.09 FRIEND (who has been the construction of the plant). When I bought the machine at the factory loaded OS is Windows 8. Subsequently I have upgraded to Windows 8.1. Recently, I noticed on the Windows 8 software & Web page download driver for my particular PC there is an update of the listed BIOS - version 8.13 (sp8624.exe) applicable to the 2AF0 of the ROM. family then checked this update the directory FTP Internet HP site - where it is described as a "critical security improvement."
I would like to install this update of the BIOS, but it is not displayed as an update on the Windows 8.1 software & driver downloads Web page to my PC. So I need some advice. My current BIOS 8,09 was for a machine of Windows 8; so is the new version 8.13. But I have upgraded to Windows 8.1; so my attention before installing - don't want my PC into a brick.
FYI my PC motherboard is Pegatron 2AF0.

Pavilion a6010n frozen BIOS update
I was updating a Pavilion a6010n computer.
I ran the update of the BIOS (v.5.13 to v.5.23) file. Open attention box does not turn off the computer, etc..
The update froze.
After an hour, I left pending. I shut down the computer manually. Removed the battery of the BIOS for half a minute.
I reinstalled the battery and plugged to the computer. Of course it won't start. Does not start even to start.
Is there a recovery process, that we can use to get back on this computer? Perhaps a BIOS file, we can put it on a drive Flash or something?
HP says they no longer support this machine.
Help!
JakeKay, welcome to the forum.
Because your computer is more than 8 years old, it was built before that some of the new BIOS recovery methods have been developed. Therefore, I don't think there is anything you can do.

Uncertain of the dv6 1143TX bios update
Hello, I was wondering weather or not, I need to update my laptop Bios. I did not update the bios since I bought it and it does not say that there is an update available. I am skeptical about the weather or not, it's an updated value, because I saw many others users have serious problems of execution of such update.
My laptop model No. is dv6-1143TX and my version of Bios F.12
Do I have to update, what problems will / may incur the update, what happens if food not up to date, and if I need to update the update I don't I need?
Any help, suggestions and information is welcome.
~ Josh
Hello
If everything is already running an update is not recommended.
What can go wrong
You can turn your laptop into a costly and unnecessary Clipboard if you don't update the BIOS by following the instructions with precision.
This means that if you turn off your laptop during the update you will definitely brick your laptop.
What happens if you don't update your laptop
Nothing.
If it works and you don't try to fix what's wrong, that then you does not work in Murphy's law. (Fix something that is not broken and it will probably break)
Kind regards
