Pavillion dv1000 with 512M memory  and currently installed BIOS F.21

I want to update the BIOS, but after following all the steps "System Health Scan" etc and finding the suggested release, F.23A, dated 3/31/06 when I reach the last step and tell it to install,  I get the message, "Not for this PC".

 

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks, Roberta

HP Pavillion dv1000 with 512M memory  with XP and currently installed BIOS F.21.

The laptop case and System info say its a dv1000. When I run "System health scan" from HP it says its a dv1624.  Is it safe to update the BIOS for the dv1624??

 

Thanks for your help.
