p6102f fans high, syetem Powers OFF, after BIOS update

‎12-14-2010 01:23 PM

 

I own a Pavilion p6102f and has been work great for last one year.
I did a BIOS update for this system and after that when the system boots up the fans starts going high and it powers OFF.
Seems like a wrong BIOS was posted for motherboard - MR1-860146. This model was never shipped w/ this motherboard. 
Checking specs for p6102f, it was shipped with: M2N78-LA motherboard
It's so silly that the update didn't checked whether its flashing on the right h/w or not...
How do I fix my system, put back the right BIOS?
Please help !!!!

Use the HP Support Assistant to confirm which motherboard is installed in your PC.  Belarc Advisor will also tell you which motherbaord is installed in your PC.

 

Sometimes PC are shiped with different motherboards depending on build times and available supplies.  HP might not have posted all the motherboard types.

So, after the wrong BIOS is written, and the PC is no longer bootable, how does one proceed in fixing it?
