Hey out there. I'm trying to update my bios but I want to make sure I get the most current update. I currently have the Insyde F.36 Rev A Version that HP provides but thats for Windows 8.1. I upgraded my pc to windows 10 and was wondering if there was a bios update for that OS. If so can you provide a download link please and thank you.

It is not a one-to-one correlation. BIOS are not necessarily tied to operating systems. Sometimes you will see a BIOS upgrade offered that is specifically designed to facilitate a specific OS but not usually. Usually BIOS updates are offered to fix something much more mundane like hibernation issues. In any event, you have the latest and best BIOS for your laptop and upgrade to Windows 10 does not require any different BIOS.
