Why do yo need to update the BIOS?

 

What is the installed operating system?

 

What softpaqs that you state have failed have you tried?

 

The available BIOS updates are located at the following HP web page.

http://support.hp.com/ro-en/drivers/selfservice/hp-elitebook-840-g3-notebook-pc/7815294

 

BIOS versions available for your notebook are as seen in the following image.

Please use Google translate.  It works. Here is a translation of the first question that I asked you. The onus of translation is yours. This is the English language forum and posts must be made in English.

You can download the BIOS softpaq from "the other Windows OS system" and run it and make the USB key. This will create  "Hewlett-Packard\BIOS\New" and other folders and put the BIOS file in the New folder. This will enable you to update the BIOS through F10 Setup.

I tried the procedure of updating HP EliteBook 840 G3

but after restarting It has an error The system cannot find any bios update

Have you tried to update the BIOS through your network?

 

The 840 G3 Supports updating over a network using the BIOS utility, if it does not work try the instructions in the next papagraph.

 

The current version of the 840 G3 BIOS might not work, so you should also try an older version, when you locate the BIOS download on HP.com there should also be a link below it to download "Previous Versions"

 

After you download the BIOS Update run it and choose the option "Create Recovery Drive" to make the USB drive you will need, the recovery drive will have the binary file in the Hewlett-Packard\BIOS\Current Directory, copy that file into the Hewlett-Packard\BIOS\New directory for updates. (file copies will be in both directories)

 

I've been having some issues with the new 840 G3 and 840 G4 updates and have escalated the issue with HP Tech Support, the current workaround is to use the previos BIOS until the issue has been resolved.
