• HP ENVY Notebook m7: BIOS update messed up my HDMI port

  I put the laptop to 'sleep' last night and some automatic updates happened the day after. Today, the HDMI port does not work. I did a recovery of pilots, but that does not solve the problem. Then I went to update the BIOS, but I have installed version is F35 and what was available was an F11 Rev A version (the confusing part is that the F11 version had a newer version which date of the F35, 3 months). In any case, the option to install the F11 Rev A Bio was not available, making only one port USB of the BIOS recovery of other computers.

  Help! I use HDMI for display on a big TV to run i, u; lator and watch TV Online.

  Thank you!

  Hi @BAMBAM65,

  Welcome to the HP Forums!

  I read your post and wanted to help. I understand the HDMI stopped working after an update.

  Here is a link may help: laptops HP - troubleshooting HDMI screen and sound Issues

  Another thing you can try is to use the Microsoft Restore to restore the system to the previous point before the update: HP PC - use Microsoft System Restore (Windows, 10, 8)

• I want to detect and use the video entering via the HDMI port on the computer. I was told the HDMI port was not set, but I can't seem to find the signal or the video.

  I want to detect and use the video entering via the HDMI port on the computer. I was told the HDMI port was not set, but I can't seem to find the signal or the video.  Any suggestions?

  As Tom SC replied, you must contact the company that manufactured your computer.  In general, the ports HDMI on most computers is an out-bound port, send video / digital audio output.

  You should probably use a video capture card that can capture from HDMI source,

• Spectrum of HP: Cannot install the latest Bios Update

  I get the following error message when it installs the update to the Bios: C2-error: area is write protected

  Someone knows how to fix this?

  Hello

  Thanks for posting in the HP Support forum. Welcome aboard!

  How about trying to update using the USB in the BIOS/UEFI > > http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c00042629/ ?

  You can also check this > > http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Operating-System-and-Recovery/SOLVED-Can-not-update-Bios-Probook-640-G2/m-p/5683581#M446920

  ========

  Some notes - as mentioned in the article itself - updated only if you really must. Personally, I don't recommend do you it unless you're having problems with your existing BIOS and you are sure that the new BIOS will fix it.

  General recommendation I provided to users/customers is NOT to upgrade the BIOS/UEFI, unless they live any sort of BIOS/UEFI problem specific. Just for updaing and update just for the use of the latest verson is not the solution. Any type of update (no matter what and that relesed it) can solve 2 problems but could introduce more than 10 questions. In addition, upgrading the BIOS (for any provider) are risky more because the BIOS recovery is not that easy compared to updates of typical software IF something goes wrong.

  It goes the same for Windows updates, OS update, drivers, etc - update/update updates IF you have any questions, you know are fixed in the new version or for some serious security problems. Otherwise, keep the existing version as long as possible.

  I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions or if you have difficulties

• L750-1LC - BIOS Update & policy of Toshiba Satellite

  I own a Satellite L750-1LC and got not even 2 months ago so it is covered with the guarantee and the additional service of guaranteed etc. nomatterwhat.

  A few days ago I was updating the laptop as Tempro prompted me to do, and generally update is not
  something I was doing for the first time.

  On the latest BIOS update, the pc restarted and then when the Office stood, process the Flashmemory - erase/write went up and out of nowhere, a pop-up message with an error halted all, computer laptop froze and officially since that time, the laptop was kind of death.

  Searching through forums, I discovered that there is a problem with this update of the BIOS and others
  had passed through the same.

  Now, what is the policy of Toshiba when you give them the laptop for the problem to be solved.

  First, they asked me WHY I was updating... (emm, own software guests of Toshiba you too even if you are just a beginner with the PC is not so difficult)

  Secondly, they said that I am lucky because they will fix it for free because I have this nomatterwhat warranty... (... I thought guaranteed nomatterwhat would be a replacement laptop dead...?)

  Third, told me that usually the BIOS update is made of Toshiba service and not only by myself and because the laptop died of a software problem is not their fault... (Excuse me? BIOS update pushed at Toshiba... makes your laptop dead and is your fault instead of Toshiba, recognizing that it's absolutely their fault in the
  first place...)

  The thing is that I wanted to share it with you all and of course I try to contact Toshiba with the history because I can't accept their mistake became mine and I have to pay for something they have caused intentionally or not...

  Hello

  This interesting story from my experience I never had problems with a BIOS update. I did it several times on my two different laptops Toshiba.
  I always used a version of BIOS based on the victory, which must be secured.

  But a friend of mine had an update of the BIOS issue... something went wrong during the procedure because the antivirus and Firewall blocked something, but not sure about that the laptop was not too bad however, the ROM module had to be flashed once more using crisis disk that I can remember the ASP could again using this flash drive was all done for free even if the warranty was not valid

• ENVY dv6 - 7373ca: update BIOS WANT dv6

  Hello

  After I managed to remove the two "unknown device" - entered the W10 Device Manager clean install thanks to this forum, I tried to upgrade to the BIOSVersion F.2D Rev a dated August 26, 2014 and listed under Windows 8 (sp68425.exe) which, according to the note, HP recommends highly.

  As I was not sure if this update would work under W10, I first tried the method described (HP Notebook PC - updated BIOS) with the opening of the menu equipment Diagnostics UEFI immediately by pressing the ESC key several times, once per second, until the Boot Menu is displayed and then pressing the F2 key. But unfortunately on the HP PC Hardware Diagnostics UEFI screen of my ' WANT dv6 - 7373ca "there are only four options (1. Memory test, 2. Hard drive test, 3. Language, 4. Exit) and no option called 'Firmware Management' or 'BIOS '. Because I would have preferred a BIOS update without starting the Windows operating system, is there something I can add this missing option menu Hardware Diagnostics UEFI?

  So I took the chance to run this BIOS file "sp68425.exe" in Windows 10 and everything seemed to work fine except the error message short after the new throw about 1 or 2 seconds that an error has been discovered, which needs to be solved and a percentage that was happening 100% before 10 of Windows start still.

  Now, everything seems to work ok: I can access the BIOS again much easier than the old BIOS dating sometime in 2012, I can boot Windows 10 without any error message longer, I can restore my WindowsImageBackups using the repair-CD as well as well as the SystemRestoreDrive I had both created on Windows 10. And the new BIOS version number and date are displayed under the W10 and also after the start systeminfo pressing keys ESC and F1. Is there anything else I can do to check the correct functioning of the BIOS?

  Concerning

  Seek and you will find what I found, it was supposed to be the latest version of "HP PC Hardware Diagnostics UEFI" (v. 5.9.0.0) I installed immediately on the UEFI System Partition to update the old one in my laptop (c. 1.6.0.0). This provided the desired options '-update BIOS "and"BIOS-Rollback"after pressing the F2 key without having to start Windows or if this does ' t OS start.

• WANT to 700-074: BIOS update failed HP ENVY 700-074

  I intend to update Windows 10 soon.  HP recommends to update the drivers and BIOS before upgrade.  the original BIOS is listed as FRIEND 80.15 in msinfo32 dated 19/09/2013 (and in the setup of the BIOS as KAI 80.15). The computer came with 8 VICTORY and has been updated to WIN 8.1.  I tried to update the BIOS with the update listed for computers 700 - 0xx WANT to sp66018.exe.  I downloaded and ran the update with the HP Support assistant help.  A DOS window appears, and the update completed.  Norton AntiVirus has been disabled and all programs were closed during installation.  I created a USB file as the recommended window.  After that restart the BIOS version has not changed... Even after several reboots (and stops) and disconnect the power cord (I did some housekeeping to clean the inside of the computer of the dust) the version of the BIOS is still the original.

  What is the correct BIOS update?  There are two listed for my machine - 80.20 Rev. (I used) may 28, 2014

  and 80.24 Rev.A 7 April 2015

  Which is the correct one?  I don't want to install a bad!

  It is possibly disable startup secure in the BIOS for the update to be successful?

  Apparently, the dates are correlated with the version I had.  I tried to install one, be one originally installed... I installed the 80.24 Rev A version dated April 7, 2015 and it updated without problems.

  When you directly download the SP74326.exe, Setup shows 3 options, the upper 1 "Update" option is always Bernard, with the message "BIOS update is blocked on this unit. The other options are backup options that work.

  It seems that my notebook does not want to be updated!

  No problem with the laptop itself or some other updates.

  Any idea?

  Ok.

  I would like to leave only if it works fine.

  Murphy's law applies to this.

• HP ENVY 700-030qe: BIOS updates for my HP desktop computer

  I have a desktop HP ENVY 700-030qe with Windows 8. While looking through the updates of software available for my system, I have seen two listed in the BIOS:

  (1) HP Compaq consumer Desktop PC BIOS for ROM family SSID 2AF3 dated October 2014.

  (2) HP Desktop BIOS update system for PC HP ENVY 700/800/810 with 2AF3 family ROM dated May 2014.

  1. How will I know what family of ROM BIOS I have? I have pictures of all the screens of BIOS that I could get and nothing mentioned family BIOS ROM. I still have the BIOS original version KAI 80.07.

  2. the two updates apply to my computer? The wording is confusing. It seems that only the second apply to my system unless one applies to a more general category of the office. If both apply, as the first is the most recent, which would be the one to use?

  3. There is an issued for the BIOS in June security update that I ran across here. Which does not appear in the update list. Why would that not replace the other? Can I assume that the October update would include this security update?

  Thank you

• ENVY 13-D046TU: F.35Ap1 BIOS update kills port HDMI on ENVY laptop

  After installation of the firmware update marked Softpaq number: SP75152, F.35Ap1 Version now four of our laptops (13 "and 14" ENVY ENVY) have a HDMI port not working. The external screens are 'no signal '.

  We spent a lot of time with the help of HP (via Hong Kong, we found ourselves in India). Remote control sessions. All a waste of time. The update of the BIOS is faulty, no system restore cannot solve this problem.

  Same day (June 13, 2016) one of our laptops automatically installed this update of the BIOS with the HP Support Assistant and killed the HDMI port.

  A. is there a way to acquire and install the previous BIOS?

  When can b. we expect a new update of the BIOS?

  C. how the hell did this update of the BIOS pass test? -> 4 / 4 updated computers laptops have a broken HDMI port. We have 7 other laptop on the left who are fortunately not updated.

  Hi there @BugFinderand @DebVancouver.

  Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!  It's a good place to find the help you need, other users, HP experts and other support staff. From what I understand, bothl of you experience the same problem with HDMI after a BIOS update.  I'm happy to help you with this.

  I would, if possible, that each of you try the laptops HP - restore the BIOS to a restoration to the having previously worked BIOS.  The main purpose is to return you to a working state. If this method works for you, obviously do not install BIOS update again.

  Edit: Bugfinder reported that restoration, the method of BIOS didn't work for him, but he had to do several times (4 times in at least one case). I guess you could say that it is true to its name, and I thank very you much for the comments.

  Please let me know if it works for you and if not let me know if there is an error message any. If this does not solve your immediate problem, please mark this message as a solution. Bravo would be appreciated as well.
