Restore HP DV7t - 7012nr BIOS problem!

Good afternoon!

I bought my HP DV7t-7012nr just 2 months ago. HP.com yesterday published new drivers for Windows 8. I installed Windows 8 (trial version) for 90 days. Updated all drivers and in the last, tried to update my BIOS from version f.0Une to version F.13

The whole process took about 2 minutes and the computer restart automstically. There is no start after reboot. Screen black, anything doesn't work, just sound cooler and LED lamps on the side.

I tried to restore my BIOS of HP_TOOLS, placing them on USB, restarting laptop, now WIN + B keys. No "beep", nothing works.

Is it possible to restore my BIOS?

... I'm shocked! How HP can place broken BIOS?

Hello johney13. After a BIOS updated you are unable to start the PC at all? By that I mean you don't even no beeps normal position when you turn on the laptop?

If this is the case, you will probably need to contact HP customer care. Your laptop is probably still under warranty, if you have only had it for two months. If the BIOS update has failed and you are unable to recover a USB drive/flash, the next step is to let them repair the laptop for you.

If you are in the United States / Canada, you can contact HP at 1-800-474-6836. If you are not in this region go to the HP support site and get contact information for your region.

    Hi all

    This problem is a BIOS problem more precisely with the memory reference Code (MRC) version 1.4.0.0 or more. Contact the manufacturer of your system or the card mother for an update system for your system BIOS or the motherboard that includes the MRC 1.5.0.0 or newer.
    If you have a system with 2 or more memory modules and are comfortable with the removal of all but one of them so that your memory is in single channel mode, try and remove all but one of them and the problem will disappear. This can be used as a workaround until you are able to update your BIOS from the manufacturer of your system or motherboard that includes the MRC 1.5.0.0 or newer.
    -------------------------

    Is this thread by forum on the website of intel:
    http://communities.Intel.com/thread/30096?start=105&TSTART=0

    I think that's the question that I am experiencing. I checked it by deleting memory modules and solve the problem itself.

    Does anyone know where we can expect an update of the bios? I really want to reinstall my second memory stick and retrieve my additional 8 GB.

    You have the original sticks that came with your laptop?

  • How to report the BIOS problem?

    Hello

    is it possible to report the BIOS problem so that a person of HP it will read and the problem will be solved if all goes well?

    To be concrete, there seems to be problem in BIOS F.02 installed on HP Mini 5103 causes of freeze if it has plugged the USB key with 'recursive partitioning' at startup. As a result, it is not possible to boot from live USB which was created from some ISO hybrids (e.g. direct ISOs of OpenSUSE recent). Since there are not many options to install the system on netbook, I think it is serious problem. My previous netbook Lenovo Ideapad S10 - 3 and also my work laptop and desktop have no problem to start with the USB stick containing "recursive partitioning", so it's certainly a problem (hopefully not feature) this concrete machine/BIOS.

    Thank you

    That's ok on the Bravo, I did nothing to help you again.  This link is for questions of security, but it is also for the firmware, so you can get away with sending them a note here:

    Avoid any problems flashing the BIOS to an older version. Did you do that there is no way to manually change the video memory setting in the BIOS?

  • Windows XP Bios problem

    When you install Microsoft XP, I seem to be a BIOS problem.  The error message loads up once the disc loaded files, but until you're able to partition the drive.  The error message indicates that the hardware and BIOS are not ACPI compatible.  After reading upward, I tried to correct the problem by what the error message says to do.  First of all, try to update the BIOS.  I called my computer supplier and received the last update for the BIOS of the computer.  I installed it and nothing happened.  I resorted to the second option listed that would press the F7 key. that was supposed to disable the ACPI and force the installation. It does not yet.  I then read a few forums and they said to update a file on the disk XP (TXTSetup.sif).  So I did but nothing seems to happen.  You have other options to get this facility by?

    First of all, check that you have not hit one of the components of the PC especially the memory sticks. If there is anything loose, see the article published below. It might be useful for you.

  • Satellite Pro A210 HDD, Windows Vista & BIOS problem

    Hello

    We have an A210-1 b 3 - PSAFHE-01500PEN - running Vista which has had a hard drive failure.
    We have replaced the old drive SATA (250 GB) with a 500 GB SATA drive and used the recovery disc to install Vista and specific software from Toshiba. We intend to restore our backup data that a Vista is installed.

    That is the problem. We have installed the new hard drive, ran the recovery and after restarting, we got a Windows could not sating error set up the hardware and then restarts. I suspect that the new drive is not recognized by Vista. I looked around and it was suggested to the SATA Compatible parameter value in the BIOS. However, the BIOS (V1.5) has no options for this.

    So, can anyone suggest anything please? Any ideas where I can get the latest update of BIOS (pref one that allows me to create a boot disk and update BACK)? Any help appreciated because she has completely baffled me.

    Thank you in advance,

    Jamie

    Hello

    Seems that A210 BIOS does not support the SATA option, that would help you to switch the AHCI compatible mode. That is why the SATA drivers must be included in the configuration of OS install.

    But if you use the Toshiba drive recover then you n t need to install the SATA drivers from the Toshiba drive recover contains the image where the SATA drivers are already included.

    Now the question is why the Vista Setup program cannot complete.
    Have you used the good drive recovery for the right portable model.
    I read in a number of threads that people used bad disc

    Well, it would be interesting to know if you can install the Windows operating system using the disk from Microsoft. On the other hand, you can try to format the HARD drive before launching the recovery disk

  • HP Pavilion 15 laptop: HP Pavilion 15 laptop: System Restore completed successfully. The problem is not resolved.

    About 3-4 weeks ago, my computer found himself in a reboot loop. I was not online at the time where he was probably not due to an update.

    After going on the HP Web site, it was first suggested that the issue could be overheating due to dust. I followed the instructions but it does not work.

    Diagnosis is directed which has determined that there are no problems with the hardware or memory.

    Then the site suggested that I do a Refresh system or a system restore. I tried the cooling system. It did not work.

    I contacted HP Tech Support hotline and they told me to update the drivers. Drivers cannot be updated / installed (by me at least) in Safe Mode, if it does not work.

    Then told me the only choice I had was to do a Factory Reset/System Restore.  After the purchase of an external HARD drive and backup of my files, I tried to do the factory reset. I received a prompt to insert a disc, but computer did not come with a disc. If it does not work.

    Then I was told by support that I had to buy "recovery disc" or a new copy of Windows 8.1. Technical support said it was the only way to solve the problem. By chance, I found another video that shows how to access recovery tool of real system since menu troubleshooting at start-up.

    System recovery completed successfully. However, while creating the new installation of Windows 8.1 (implementation name, country, favorite colors, e-mail etc.) the original reboot loop problem started. If it does not work. Even worse, because the Windows installation is incomplete - and can complete because of the reboot loop - I can access more fashion is safe.

    Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Miracles would net you have my firstborn (eat too in any case).

    Okay, so I had to take the machine to a technician. What she said is that it was certainly not a hardware problem. Its best estimate is that my computer As witn infected a Trojan horse which subsequently transferred, entered the BIOS and corrupted partition.

    Short history of Tech, they fixed by redoing the BIOS and installing a new copy of Windows 8.1. I asked about the other options that I received. She explained that a remote technical support could not fix the problem, nor recovery disks could solve the problem.

    My advice to all who encounter such a complex problem, when you contact HP Support don't forget to request contact information for a local HP technician, licensed (I only asked for this in desperation by accident). Just in case your problem is not easily diagnosed or solvable, it might just save you some time, money and spare you confusion.

    As for how I got infected with the Trojan possible in the first place, no idea. The only thing I can think is that I've opened an e-mail looking strange but legitimate to someone I didn't know. However, it was about 6 months ago and the problem started a month before, so I at least do not know if there is a link. However, it is always good advice not to open strange e-mails. Note that the technician did say that even if I had Norton installed, it would not be able to automatically detect the problem. (I wonder if I called Norton technical support if they could have helped or pointed me in the right direction faster. But even once, any comments or information I received from HP technical support gave usable clues. "And refresh the system that has been proposed did uninstall Norton).

    So, I have a computer to work again. I hope this info can be useful to someone and avoid frustration. Thanks to everyone who took the time to read my post.

    Hello @Alghzawi,

    To get your question more exposure I suggest you post in the trade forums since it is a commercial product. You can do to commercial Forums.

    Even if it is a Commercial product, I found that the system tells you that the caps lock is on.

    I recommend to restore the default BIOS settings. You could restore the BIOS with this document by selecting the reload the default BIOS settings. This will restore all the functions return to default settings.

    You can try perform a reset.

    When you perform a hard reset note remove all USB devices. Disconnect all non-essential devices.

    Here is a link to computer does not start for Windows.

    Can you hear the Fans? If so, try to connect to a monitor to see what is happening.

    Here's a video that might help. It shows you how to reinstall the HARD drive, which is sometimes useful

    Thank you.

  • bios problem 4540 s and more

    Is in serious trouble with my 4540 s, which is about two years old.  The bios seems to be completely dysfunctional.  I can't via Esc, or pressing the key which I want, for example the F9 key to select the boot device.  The machine runs on Ubuntu linux and I found out that I deleted the partition HP_TOOLS both from the recovery partition.  I have now restored the partition HP_TOOLS, but cannot fix the bios.

    The machine indicates that the hard drive is defective, even if I can apparently read it without problem on my Mac.  However the machine will not hop on the hard drive to try to boot from the drive internal CD/DVD, or a USB CD/DVD drive.  I have not yet tried a usb key.

    After a period of running, I found I could not, for example, delete emails in T-bird, by clicking on an icon would not open the program and I could not close some programs.  Sometimes the only way to turn off the machine is by holding down the power button.  At present, start not at all, but simply traverses the verification of simplified hardware and he is there with the HP logo on the screen when I'm out of the race.

    Remove each chip memory of 4 GB or placing them in a replacement window has no difference.

    I'd appreciate any help with more tests that I'm able to perform in order to identify the problem.  I wonder if it may be the motherboard, because I guess that the bios is there.  However, I would be much more certain before I think to buy a new motherboard.

    TIA

    OK, I'm reaching here... not that familiar with the unit that you are handling.  But the machine can be configured for UEFI Secure Boot, but you are trying to boot from old media?

    First: try to switch on/off the machine while pressing F9.  Select the legacy device (no UEFI) / media option that you are trying to boot from.

    If this does not work, take a look at HP - Secure Boot - Troubleshooting computers (don't worry about the fact that it is a doc of Windows 8), and then search for "cannot boot from a CD or a DVD.  Follow the instructions to adjust the machine to boot from an inherited resource and to ensure that the legacy resource appears in the order of precedence before the hard drive.

    THX...

  • Dv7t-4000 power problems

    I bought a dv7t-4000 in September, and so far I've been pretty happy with it. However, I had a lot of problems with smooth audio video-sounds would sometimes be looped for a few seconds and things would be long to load. Recently, I noticed that all the issues went away once I unplugged the AC adapter and started running on the battery. I looked at the three places where things could go wrong - the power grid that I plugged the power cord and the real internal components of the laptop. I tried to run the laptop in four different locations with the same result, as well as three different cords (120W and 90W, which should be supported by the dv7t, as far as the manual says). After testing both, I felt that the only option is the internal components. I checked the forums here and read this thread, who told me that this problem happened to other laptops, but I know for some that the power cable is not the issue, as says this solution. I have the latest video and audio drivers, as well as all updates of Windows/BIOS/material I can find. Could I possibly get a confirmation of what I think is wrong, or maybe other solutions short to order a new power connector and disassemble the laptop to jump in the spare room?

    Serial number CNF0341WKS

    Product number WV703AV

    Pseudo-resurrect this thread in case where someone else happens to have this problem. After 3 separate the sets of repairs on one and a half months time, a replacement of the motherboard has finally solved the problem. It is a problem entirely based on the material, and cracking only open the laptop and reinstalling the card will fix it. Good luck to the other people in the case where this helps out you.

  • No power no boot... (BIOS problem?) ... Pls HELP

    Hi guys, I have read through some of the related posts but can't revive my system.

    Laptop was working fine before that all happened. Model is HP DM4-2015DX

    During a restart during the restore to factory default, I rested my hand on the F2 key and entered the "start checking...". »
    but as I noticed before the screen followed by all that it goes in this audit statup I held the power button and turn off the computer.

    As I pressed it again I get a solid light orange Wifi and a single glance on the CAPS LOCK key... Troubleshoot link shows it is problem of CPU, but it is impossible because it was working fine the second before.

    So far, I've tried the windows + key + B and UEFI USB tool to no change, still the same symptoms.

    Someone at - it any other ideas? I feel really bad for not letting the full audit before restarting.

    Thank you!

    I reinstalled the BIOS with BIOS of F.04 (sp53126.exe) following a guide of donovan6000 (Insyde BIOS Modding: brick HP recovery) to the step of renaming. Instead of using XXXXX.fd, I used *. BIN and materialized. All fixed!

    Thanks for the research.

    Before I encounter this error message, but after I opened my laptop that has been started.

    Why I opened my laptop?

    I have here some information that might help trace when this problem started...
    before there is no password set in my security settings on the bios, I put the password in it. My mother borrowed my laptop so I decided to remove all the passwords that I put to him.

    In my bios security settings
    In the old password, I put my password then I leave empty the new password and retype the new password then I save and exit...

    After that I can't go to my bios it still asks to put a password but I wonder because I already deleted it, I tried to put the password that I used before but I does not work...

    I searched the internet on how to recover a bios password and I tried some of these suggestions
    I am using Toshiba Satellite A350D - 20 K I've upgraded to windows 7 64 bit, I believe that there is no utility driver for my OS password so I can not use utility password, based on a suggestion that I read

    I can reset my bios by removing the cmos / battery from inside my computer bios laptop so I decided to open my laptop but suddenly I have not found all the batteries inside...
    After I opened my laptop, that was the time I started to encounter the error message...

    Dear friend

    Now the situation is more complicated. To be honest, that certain parts of your reports are not logical for me to be discussing this.

    As you know in the BIOS boot options where you can set the boot sequence there. With other words, you can define which device should be the first, second and so on. To start notebook BIOS check this defined order and try to start the operating system. If the first boot device is not found for some second reason for notebook control device. If there is no portable bootable option check the following.

    This message PXE occurs when the laptop cannot find the boot device and try to start the LAN (network card) device. Why does this happen? I put t know what the problem is here.
    At this point, I have to say that I m really confused when you say that you can continue to windows after this message appears on the screen. How do you do that? Can you start preinstalled OS now or not?

    BIOS password
    This method with the removal of battery can run on desktop computers, but with laptops is the history a little bit different. If you are not able to remove or change the password of the BIOS, then you have a big problem. Now this can be done by only authorized service.
