Pc BIOS

Hello. I own HP Pavilion a6255.it desktop computer. I want to be explained, step by step, you update the BIOS
Thank you

There are several reasons do not update the BIOS.  While it seems to be rabies have the BIOS updates latest and 'best', are not really necessary unless there is problem that needs a correction.  By checking on the indicated model, there is a more recent BIOS for reasons of "BIOS update improves compatibility with memory test."  Since it seems that Vista needs to be installed, lets start with that.  If Vista is still the operating system, all he need do is download the update of the BIOS, found here:

http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=PV-60387-1&LC=en&DLC=en&cc=us&OS=2093&product=3634712&sw_lang=

Once the download is complete, double-click the file and let it run until it says that it has completed.  He will probably tell you to restart the computer, or he'll do it by itself.  That should be all that is needed.  Keep in mind that the BIOS update can brick the computer if something happens does not go as planned.  If any program attempting to interfere with the update of the BIOS, this could also be the end.  That's why they warn that all other programs and AntiVirus should be closed.

So, I hope that helped.

  • Update the BIOS

    Hello

    can someone tell me the Bios updates for my machine?

    I need one that is more aggressive on material resources. The appropriate drivers for the GPU would be nice as well. Reading from data bases of Geekbench, this machine is never more than a pretty paperweight to research.

    macpraxis,

    You confuse a Mac to a Windows window. Mac do not have a bios but they have firmware, if there is any necessary updates to your machine, they are available in the software updates which is located in the Mac App Store. If nothing comes, while your system is up to date and should be left alone.

    If you encounter any problem, perhaps to let us know what it is would open the way for getting help.

  • Clocked at 20 degrees warmer since putting on 3.87 Rev A Bios Update on Z420 Workstation

    I have a question:

    Not too long ago I put the Bios Update on A Rev 3.87 was considered to be as critical an update on my workstation Z420 (running Windows 7 Pro 64-bit), and lately I've found that the CPU idling at about 20 degrees more hot than before.  I used to hear creaking noises coming from the computer I learned normally come circuits on the motherboard power delivery, but as long as I heard those CPU would be on average around 50 degrees C at idle.  I hear these noises and now the CPU is on average around 70-75 degrees C at idle.  Not sure what the connection is.  HP performance Advisor tells me I'm in the normal range, but I want to just make sure that with programs like Autodesk Maya there, she become too hot and stop the machine.   I don't know what the temp high-end is considered maximum security.  This change could have due to the update of the Bios?

    Thank you for your response and suggestions.  I check in my BIOS power management settings has been developed the extended mode, but the temperature has always hovered around 70-78 degrees at idle.  I checked Intel spec for this (E5 - 1650 6-core xeon) processor, clocked at 3.2 Ghz by heart, and although he said nothing on the TMax, he mentioned that the TCase (which he defined as the maximum temperature allowed integrated processor heat sink (IHS)) was 64 degrees Celsius.  Now my temperature of the case, according to my HP Performance Advisor version 1.7.7517.0 is only about 24 degrees C, but I put my fan a little higher CPU, about 2009 rpm speed.  This makes a little more noise, but my CPU temp has dropped to about 49 °.  "" Before the change of the fan speed has been slightly more than 1300 RPM while the Advisor I have always said that it is in the range "normal".  Is it good to get the speed of the CPU fan like that or do I have to go a little lower?

  • All BIOS options are disabled / grayed out

    I have 8770w with HP ProtectTools active EliteBook and just to have on the security of the TPM secure. I rebooted and tried to access the BIOS, my password is accepted, but virtually all of the options are disabled. Any idea what's going on here?
    Is it the TPM chip?

    In fact, the solution was to open a session in the BIOS as a guest and then configure a BIOS Admin password. Thank you post that.

    It is odd that the default user does not receive the Admin of the BIOS rights.

  • Default BIOS password

    Hello everyone,

    I had real trouble moving my Touchsmart 600 - 1030fr to Windows 8. Due to incompatibility of graphics driver, I see nothing on my computer after the startup screen (the one with the blue window).

    I discovered that a change in the BIOS can solve this problem, but my BIOS asks me a password. I tried to reset this password in removal and replacement of the battery from the motherboard. Although he told me that the BIOS has been reversed to the factory settings, the password is always there.

    Is anyone of you know what is the password to the factory settings?

    Also, I read on the forum but

    • The password 12345 found heredoes not work
    • the text which States

    "NOTE: If a new non - HP BIOS is installed, and turn on a password is used, and you don't remember the password to start the computer, see the support document of specification motherboard for your computer model to find the password reset instructions to clear BIOS passwords."
    not help me in my documentation of the computer do me not any suspicion on the specification of the motherboard and it is a real BIOS HP.

    Thanks for your help.

    Here are the specifications of your desktop HP TouchSmart 600-1030fr and it's card mother Pegatron IPP7A-M5 (E60). Please follow these instructions;

    The BIOS password is used to protect the settings of the BIOS against unwanted changes. If you have forgotten your password, you can use this jumper to reset password settings.

    To clear the password BIOS follow these steps:

    1 turn off the POWER the computer and unplug the power cord.

    2. Locate the jumper marked CLEARLY P.W.

    3. move the jumper on the PSWD jumper on pins 3-1.

    4 wait about 10 seconds, and then return the jumper to pins 5-3.

    5. connect the power cord and turn on the computer.

    6 hold down the F10 key during the boot process to enter the BIOS setup. You will not be asked a password.

  • How Flash the BIOS if you cannot start Windows

    Hello

    I have a BIOS virus which prevents ANY version of any operating system Windows to boot at all.

    (Linux will start and run fine)

    So, to solve this problem, I need re-flashing the BIOS.

    Problem is... HP offers only the BIOS as an executable Windows utility.

    Can someone help me figure out a way to Flash the BIOS WITHOUT Windows?

    THX

    Now, in response to this topic, I discovered a solution...

    HPBIOSFILE.exe - writeromfile /-writehexfile /-writehdrfile

    I hope this helps some of you.

    To use this...

    (1) download the executable file (.exe) for BIOS update for your motherboard

    (2) a copy of the program flashing of Award Bios BACK (Google it, easy to find)

    (3) obtain a downloadable copy of the BACK 6.22 (of Microsoft) and create files to start this one.  (possibly another computer to do this).

    (4) start your computer affected in BACK 6.22

    (a) copy the files in a directory

    "(b) using the bold line above... type the name of your BIOS instead of the HPBIOSFILE.exe file ' and run the command.

    You will find yourself with a ROM file, a BIN file and a header file.

    You can now re-Flash your BIOS on your HP computer outside of a Windows environment.

    ENJOY!

    I hope someone can help me.

    Thank you

    I know it's too late to say this, but there is an 'important' WARNING use external power supply when the bios update and not cut the power supply even if the computer seems to freeze.

    If you can always start in DOS, then try version disk bootable back of the update of the bios. But it sounds like the bios is corupted, this option is probably not. I think the best thing to do is send to hp service, unless you now how to open up the case and find the jumper to reset bios.

    BIOS is typically stored in a ROM chip, not on the hard disk.
